Brent van Doninck injured in MXGP of Latvia, McLellan 11th
JM Racing Honda has had mixed fortunes at the MXGP of Latvia last weekend. Camden McLellan is coming closer to his good form and finished in eleventh position in both motos of the MX2 class but Brent van Doninck crashed in the opening moto of the MXGP class and dislocated his hip.
Van Doninck finished in tenth position in the qualifying heat on Saturday. He took a poor start and had some difficulties by passing the riders in front of him. After that things started to go better and he managed to finish the race in tenth position. Van Doninck wasn’t satisfied with this and was fired up for the first moto on Sunday. Unfortunately things went wrong for him in the beginning of the race. Brent crashed and dislocated his hip. He was transported to the hospital to put the hip back in position. Due to this, Brent will be out for the next few races!
