I feel sry for Hopper but with such a damaged(n half removed) finger how can he race in a competition like WSBK? It would be quite painful for...... Crescent Suzuki Team.

With a series of Injury I suppose Hopkins can be compared to the ever injured Chris Vermeulen

Crash, must you have taken this picture to the main page? I was shocked by it.
For Hopkins, get on well and be fast on Phillip Island. I don't think it will affect his performance.
