Cal Crutchlow admits the ankle he broke in 2018 is in 'severe pain' after suffering a heavy crash in ThaiGP practice on Friday. MotoGP
RNF Racing’s Cal Crutchlow says the ankle he badly broke in 2018 is in"severe pain” after suffering a heavy crash in second practice for the MotoGP Thailand Grand Prix.The British rider was gunning for a time attack lap in the closing stages of FP2 at Buriram when he was flicked from his Yamaha at the Turn 7 right-hander.
Crutchlow ended the day 12th overall and says there is “no excuse” for his crash as it was simply a result of him taking profit of the good feeling he had on the M1. “I have quite severe pain in the ankle. The x-rays are negative, but this could also be the swelling on my ankle at the moment.“So, we have to continue to try and rest, ice the ankle and see how it is.“But I felt very good today on the bike. In FP1, when we were pushing for the lap time, I made one mistake in the lap, which would have meant I was in the top 10.
