Jorge Lorenzo's participation in the French MotoGP at Le Mans could be in doubt after further medical examinations revealed that the injuries he sustained in his practice crash in Shanghai are worse than initially feared.
that's really bad..hope he recovers in time..am afraid that he might try and act like a hero and race inspite of not being fully fit and worsen the injury...its easy to say but difficult to do but he has to think of the long run...
wish him all the best !!

Not good news. Even as a CS fan you dont wish this upon any rider. I hope he recovers fully and in time for the next GP.
Get well soon Lorenzo.

Well we all know at least one person who will be happy with this news don't we? But what will the excuses be if an injured team-mate continues to embarrass the so called master? Oh yes Excuse #1 in the VR excuse bible - "not enough existing tyre data"
Get well soon Jorge - Yamaha needs you like never before...

hmm interesting assesment on the injuries undertaken.."broken a ligament" thats clinically impossible, its not a bone! you can only tear it, or actually sever it which is obviously worse and you would definitly need surgery to fix that - i tore my acl and needed two surgeries and a titanium pin to hold it back together. I find it hard to believe that happened to any great severity because if it had it would result in a ankle twice its size with swelling which would immobilise it making shifting gear very, very difficult.
medical rant over!
I reckon its the spanish press trumping him up more, the motogp website most be wetting their pants over this!

as, a diary that i rate as bs but that crash quotes a lot when talking f1 - but then motociclismo, which is quite more serious said the same.
I looked on that site (motociclismo) and googled it but couldnt find that quote anywhere and I am sure if CS said/thought it "Crash Net" would have posted in the biggest font they have!

I truly hope lorenzo gets well soon because the start of the chaqmpionship was so exciting!! why does this have to happen :( finally the 800 gets interesting and immediately it sees 1 of its top riders crashing and breaking things :(
Anyway im still happy we have VR, Dani and CS to create some fine battles but man, jorge is such a piece of gold for the class! to watch the 800 itself going over the track is plain boring to me compared to the old 990cc beasts so the last thing we need is class domination again... hope they ban all riders aids next year so we can see much more slides and auto wheelies again.
As for monty: lool what a pathetic boy you are! go die please!

Just makes his performance of sun even more impressive, including the push-start before he warmup lap.
plymouth, you could be right about Spanish media making it sound worse then it is, I tend to believe the "broken ligament" quote was probably just a mistranslation
Rob Wilson, it s on the print versions of this week ... i couldnt find it on the websites. Motociclismo ws signed by José Maroto, on As, by Mela Chércoles.
Ive seen that vid in various other funny verions, but that was the best of all..LOL
BTW..sad news on JL. I bet Pedrobot will be very happy as well, not to mention clown boy.

Don't get fooled gentlemen, coming 4th while having sustained such injuries only two days ago means full ability to fight for the win in two weeks time. Lorenzo is an iron-eater as he proved. Unless Casey is right and is all a mockery, a head game to make the others wonder, although I strongly doubt it.
