Injury update: Natalie Kane!

Unfortunately, Natalie Kane took a crash during the first lap of qualifying at the Loket WMX round. Kane wasn’t even on a fast lap but clipped the bank and took a heavy hit to the head. It meant she couldn’t compete during the fourth round of the WMX series.

Kane has got checked out and luckily nothing is broken which is good news.

The doctors have advised Natalie to stay off the bike for three weeks. The next race scheduled for Kane is the next round the Swedish Championship at the end of August so she shouldn’t miss any races.

This of course means that she should will be back for the next round of the WMX series that takes place in Assen on the 9th and 10th September.
