Not the news I was hoping for, yet am very thankful that injuries weren't any worse.
Sykes fell and injured his left hand on day one after less than ten laps of the PI circuit, which has recently been resurfaced. He underwent a medical examination right away and will be ready to take to the track once again in a few days for the official pre-race tests.
Loris was posting fast times on his first visit to Phillip Island but pushed a little too hard on day one and had a high speed fall. It was decided to rest him to be ready for the next tests at the track in the state of Victoria, after he fell hard and suffered pain in his back.
In six days God made the heavens and earth and said it was good
On the seventh day He rested
On the eight day He made the ZX-10R and proclaimed perfection
It's Leon camiers. Apparently there is so much grip from the new surface that the riders are pushing harder and harder to find the limits until they obviously push too hard
