We learned, only late last night with further details coming through during this morning, that whilst practicing on the Miramont circuit in France for Sunday’s World Longtrack Championship round, unfortunately Dimitri suffered a crash which resulted in him being taken to hospital where he underwent an operation on an arm/wrist break and is now in plaster.
His mother Maguy reports that the operation went well however that Dimitri is again feeling very low given this is his second big crash of the year, and once again he looks set to sit out much of the season.
At this point we do not know exact details as to the severity of the break or any associated recovery period.
We are sure you will join us in sending young Dimitri and his family our thoughts and very best wishes for a speedy recovery.
We hope to provide an update during Sunday’s meeting.
