That's a bummer Ali but, it's better to rest up now and get fit properly rather than risk long-term damage. Live to fight another day, eh?

Get well.

That's real bad luck Ali, I know you'll be missed on the grid, but best to get these things sorted out properly right from the start.

Someone di tell me though that real racers ride through the pain!!!:D

Blimey Ali...how did you manage to race at Cadwell...BRAVE!

Looks like I came out the best of the "collar-bone mob"...what with Dave Reilly and you struggling with your recovery. May well be that I was under the knife and full of surgical stainless-steel within five days of breakage helped?

Well....as it has been said....REALLY bad news...both for you Ali, and for the DD series, as it seems to have lost its very own Ruben Xaus!

All the best for the op mate.

Ali, gutted for you mate.

Take it easy and don't rush the rehab and physio - you can race for plenty more years but there are 40+ non-racing weeks a year that you need a good arm for.

Best wishes from Paul & Kirsty
