Herlings Injury Update
Red Bull KTM factory rider Jeffrey Herlings has suffered an injury after crashing in the final lap of the MXGP qualification race, while running in second place. The Dutchman has some damage to his ribs.
Jeffrey Herlings: I crashed with a lap to go while I was in second. Very small crash, but unfortunately Romain Febvre hit me. There was nothing he could do to avoid me, and totally not his mistake. And after the moto he even came and say sorry, for something he couldn’t do anything about. Big respect for his sportsmanship. Right now I might have a broken rib, and a big swollen elbow but it is what it is. Ended up in seventh place. Let’s try and ride tomorrow.
