MXGP Injury News: Glenn Coldenhoff

Glenn Coldenhoff suffers a big setback

Friday 14, December 2018

The Grand Prix contingent have been rather quiet in recent weeks; riders have been logging countless laps in remote locations to prepare for the upcoming term. Glenn Coldenhoff had been doing exactly that with his new team, Standing Construct KTM, too, but suffered a major setback in training today.

"To avoid some speculation and dramatising, Glenn Coldenhoff had a crash today in Lommel," the Standing Construct KTM outfit declared on social media. "He has compressed vertebrae but has no further complications of it. He also has a fracture in his wrist, which needs no surgery. He will be back soon at his Motocross of Nations speed."

There is no word on a recovery time at this early stage. One would presume that he'll be up against it to return and be at his best by the time that the first round of the 2019 FIM Motocross World Championship, the Grand Prix of Patagonia-Argentina, rolls around on the first weekend in March though.
