Monday Kickstart – 2011 Monster Energy MXoN

Recently crowned MX1 World Champion Antonio Cairoli had a weekend that he would probably rather forget, or at the very least not talk about. It all began at the start of the first MX1/MX2 moto where this crash—which actually broke his scaphiod and ulna bone in his wrist—forced him to start at the back of the pack. The Italian rider then crashed later, breaking the triple clamps on his KTM 350SX-F.

Following his second crash, Cairoli’s bike sat in the middle of the race track with the broken laps until the track crew was able to move it.

Once off the track, KTM was quick to cover up the broken clamps with a jacket.
