In a test spent getting up to speed, it was a day two to forget for Toprak Razgatlioglu (Pata Yamaha with Brixx WorldSBK), who suffered a big highside on the exit of Turn 5 just half an hour before lunch, where he was due to finish anyway. His bike took a big hit too, and after a medical check diagnosed a deep wound to his elbow, he was taken to hospital for it to be examined further, rounding out the test in sixth. He returned to the track and despite a bitter end to the two days, he was in good spirits. After finding a late breakthrough on Saturday evening in terms of a direction to follow for rear grip solutions, teammate Andrea Locatelli was in good form on Sunday, as he finished fourth and fastest Yamaha after a strange first day and only half of a second day.

I'd like to see him on a MotoGP bike. Even if he's not the quickest he'd be one of the more spectacular.

He's due at Cadwell this weekend!

That's a really annoying injury. Elbow wounds take forever to heal and annoy you waking and sleeping.

that's gotta sting!
They're all total nails these guys though.

Elbows and knees are a total bastard in leathers too - most other stuff you can 'work' around. Those two are just bloody annoying (and painful)

Sadly I have experience - not so impressive as his, but the knee damage I 'ignored' so I could to a weekend at Pembrey was a bugger to deal with!! LOL

Last week,after about 20 miles I had to return home and change my leather jacket for the more roomy textile,because the leathers were nipping my elbow and making it bleed again.
