MR_W Posted May 17, 2014 Posted May 17, 2014 He's in a critical condition after crashing on the approach to Metropole today in the Superstock race. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/northern-ireland/27457847 (note that you will see the results on the right as links, do not click if you are waiting for the highlights tomorrow night)Poor bloke can't catch a break, he's been injured so many times so far. Bike also caught fire in the accident.Hope he pulls through OK, he's spent all winter recovering from a Le Mans 24hr crash last year. Quote
