John Hopkins To Miss Donington WSB
Crescent FIXI Suzuki's John Hopkins will be forced to miss this
weekend's World Superbike race at Donington in England due to the
injuries he sustained in a high-speed crash last time out at
Monza.
Hopkins high-sided during the first race at Monza on Sunday and
suffered a broken bone in his right foot and torn muscles in his
left hip. It was originally expected that Hopkins would be fit to
ride at Donington, but a further scan revealed the injury to be
worse than first thought and he has no choice but to miss the
event. It is hoped that Hopkins will make a full recovery in time
for the US round of the World Superbike championship on Monday May
28th.
Crescent FIXI Suzuki will make an announcement on a replacement
rider in the near future.
