Hickman Details Isle of Man TT Injuries
P
eter Hickman has taken to
social media to disclose the
extent of his injuries suffered in
a 140 mph get-off during prac-
tice for the 2025 Isle of Man TT.
Hickman crashed at the
Kerrowmoar lefthander after
his 8Ten Racing BMW M 1000
RR suffered a broken exhaust
mount bracket, which in turn
caused the exhaust pipe to rub
on Hickman's rear tire and sub
-
sequently deflate it.
"Condition-wise, I'm not too
bad," Hickman said. "I've got
quite a lot of broken bones. I've
broken my left collarbone, my
left scapula, and my shoulder
blade. I broke three ribs and four
vertebrae in my back.
"So, it's not ideal, but I just
want to say a massive thanks
to the marshals and medics
that looked after me at the
time. They did a fantastic job.
I don't remember much about
it because I was knocked out. I
don't remember the lap leading
up to it, and in fact, the first time
I properly woke up, I woke up in
the hospital. It's a bit of a new
experience for me. In my 25-year
career, I've not been knocked
out before!
"But I've been going to the
Isle of Man TT now for 10 years.
This is the first major problem
that I've had, touch wood. It's
just one of those things."
Hickman did not disclose
when he would return to com
-
petition in the British Superbike
Championship.
