Jake Dixon declared unfit after scary highside in Qatar
Jake Dixon has been declared unfit to continue the Qatar🦹 Moto2 weekend after a huge highside in Saturday practice.
The𒀰 inc💮ident took place at Turn 13 and caused a red flag.
Dixon was conscious, it was quickly confirmed.
His Aspar team later updated: “Jake Dixon’s medical checks show no fractures at🐟 the moment.
“He is being taken to a Hospital for a CT scan.”
The rear of Dixon's Kalex slid then launched him into the air an🎐d over his handlebars. He appeared to land hip-first on the ground and will miss qualifying.
"I saw Jake after t🧜he crash. Unfortunately he had a big highside, it can happen, but the most important thing is that nothing is broken," said Aspar sporting director Nico Terol.
"They've gone to hospital justꦰ to make sure everything is ok. We will wait for information to hear th🍃e [race] situation for Jake."
The hospital checks subsequently confirmed no fractures but the 20💛23 race winner has been declared unfit 'due to the trauma sustained in his P2 crash'.
