Update on injured rider at Southern 100 after red-flagged session

An update on the condition of a rider who crashed on Monday at the Southern 100 has been released.

Practice was red flagged following a one-rider incident in the second session for the Supersport class.

Davey Todd topped the Supersport times on Monday at the Billown road race, but the second session was cut short after a single rider incident.

The rider, who has been named at 13:00 on 8 July as Yann Galli, was reported conscious afterwards and was taken to Noble's Hospital. Galli has since been transferred to hospital in the UK; his condition is reported as stable.

“A single rider incident at Stadium Bend caused the session to be stopped,” a statement from the Southern 100 published on Monday evening reads.

“The rider is conscious and being taken to Nobles Hospital for further assessment.”

Rob Hodson had been fastest in the Lightweight class on Monday, with the aforementioned Todd second on the Padgett’s Paton.

In the Superbike class, it was again Todd, on the 8Ten Racing BMW, that was fastest, ahead of Nathan Harrison, Michael Dunlop, and Dean Harrison, making it a half-and-half split between Honda and BMW in the top-four.

The Sidecar class was topped by Ryan and Callum Crowe, ahead of Peter Founds and Jevan Walmsley.

Roads are set to close again this evening (8 July 2025) for the resumption of qualifying, before the first two races of the week take place with Lightweight Race 1 and Supersport Race 1.
