Jo Shimoda is experiencing the ultimate in the highs and lows of supercross! Last week’s opening round winner suffered some terrible luck in practice as per RacerX, with the Japanese star having his fingers hit by a pit-board during qualifying. As things stand he will try and race tonight, but supercross and broken fingers don’t go particularly well together! Let’s see how it goes, but after Kitchen and Forkner moving East it could be another title contender out early if tonight doesn’t go well for the unlucky Shimoda.
Per @racerxonline, Jo Shimoda suffered 2 broken fingers in his left hand after coming into contact with a pit board. Jo still plans to race tonight. #SMX #SupercrossLIVE pic.twitter.com/YQZc0p5G7K
