Henry Jacobi raced his first MXGP World Championship of the year at his home round in Germany during the weekend and had a superb weekend.
The Sarholz KTM rider worked his way into fourth in moto one and was having a superb race until a crash demoted him to tenth but it was still a good result.
In the second moto, Jacobi had another crash and the result is broken jaw.
Sarholz KTM posted the following update on the German:
Injury update Henry Jacobi. Yesterday we had to experience once again that highs and lows can be very close together in our sport. After a crash in the second race at his home GP in Teutschenthal, our pilot, Henry Jacobi was successfully operated on on Monday morning.
Henry suffered a complicated jaw fracture with multiple breaks. In addition, there were a number of cuts that required medical treatment. The hard impact also caused the 27-year-old to suffer a severe concussion.
