P56
Suzuki's MXGP racer Arminas Ja-
sikonis suffered a big fall at the U.S.
GP and dislocated his hip. "He got a
good start, moving into third position
and was jumping the tabletop when
the bike dug-in on soft ground as he
landed," team owner/manager Stefan
Everts said. "He went over the handle-
bars and the bike hit him and he
dislocated his right hip. It's been put
back by the medical team and it's not
looking too bad but he has to have
another check-up scan."
Monster Energy/Pro Circuit Kawasa-
ki's Adam Cianciarulo was also car-
rying a pretty hot hand into his home
state's GP, but it wasn't to be, as on
Saturday he injured his knee and
dropped out for the weekend. The GP
claimed a couple other major names,
too, including Yamaha's Cooper
Webb, who fractured his right thumb
in the first practice session. 2015
World Champ Romain Febvre went
down and hit his head in the first moto
and didn't line up for moto two.
