N🔯icky Hayden looks to have suffered another right hand fracture as a result of his scary Aragon MotoGP accident.

The factory Ducati star speared off-track through the fast final turn at the 𓃲end of lap two o😼f the race.

Unable to slow down sufficiently in the run-off area, the American then slammed into an advertising board. The force of the impact launched Hayden over the top of the tyre barrier 🐭and onto an access road.

Hayden previously suffered fractures to the second and third metacarpal on the same hand during hi💞s huge Indianapolis qualifying accident, in mid-August, which also forced him to miss Brno.

"I thought I had esc🐻aped unscathed from the crash at Aragon, but unfortunately it looks like I picked up another injury," said Hayden in the run-up to this weekend's Japanese Grand Prix.

"When I got home, my right hand was bothering me a bit, so I went for an X-ray and CT scan, and it turns out I have a fracture in my 💖right radius.

"It's definitely not the best ⭕situation, but as it's not too painful and I have pretty good grip strength, I'm hopeful that it won't cause too many problems this weekend.

"Racing's full of ups and d🐓owns. We'll try to ride this one out and hopefully get a decent result in Japan to get a little momentum going and get some confidence back."

Unfortunately for H꧃ayden, Motegi is the first of three races in successive weekends.
