The Standing Construct Honda MXGP team sadly announces it will not be attending
the upcoming two rounds of the FIM Motocross World Championship in Indonesia.
This decision comes in the wake of Brian Bogers sustaining a shoulder injury during
the Qualifying Race at the MXGP of Germany in Teutschenthal on Saturday 10th July.
Bogers suffered a heavy fall while battling for a top-10 position in the Qualifying
Race on Saturday afternoon, resulting in the dislocation of his left shoulder. The
Dutchman was quickly taken to the medical unit, where his shoulder was put back in
place under anesthesia, before being transported to the hospital for further
examination.
While the severity of the injury could not be determined on Saturday, Bogers
consulted a shoulder specialist in The Netherlands who advised him to give his
shoulder ample rest, as it will be crucial to the healing process. Regrettably, this
means that Bogers will be unable to participate in the next two rounds of the MXGP
World Championship.
In light of Bogers’ injury, and with Pauls Jonass still recovering from a thumb injury
sustained at the MXGP of France, the Standing Construct Honda MXGP team finds
itself unable to attend the MXGP rounds in Indonesia. The team extends their best
wishes for a swift recovery to both riders and eagerly anticipates an exciting return to
the FIM Motocross World Championship as soon as possible.
