Chase Sexton had a huge crash with just a few laps to go in moto two in Las Vegas while just inside the top five. The factory KTM rider went down hard and was lying on the track not really moving while being treated by medical staff for a few laps in a worrying scene.
Sexton was then taken off on a stretcher by the medical mule and it did not look good, but KTM have since updated with the latest on Sexton saying, “In Moto 2, the 25-year-old would unfortunately crash heavily during the latter stages of the moto, later confirming a mild concussion and a weak shoulder that he will have further evaluated this upcoming week.”
Sexton said himself on X: “Just wanted to give everyone an update and appreciate everyone checking in on me ❤️ my shoulder is very weak so I will be getting it checked this upcoming week and a mild concussion. Not the way I was expecting to end this year but I trust gods plan always 🫶🏻.”
It means Sexton is still a big question mark for the MXoN as is his MX2 teammate, Haiden Deegan, who broke his collarbone after taking Shimoda and himself down in a desperate attempt to win the SMX 250 title.
