You just have to feel for Dani Pedrosa, breaking his collarbone at Le Mans yesterday is just another in the line of one of the numerous injuries that the Spaniard has bravely and quietly endured over the years.
It seems that everytime the 26-year-old crashes he hurts himself and badly too.
After this latest injury, Spanish news website Marca.
com has put together a graphic chart (check it out by hitting the link) citing the number and exact nature of all the injuries that Pedrosa has had over his 10 year career and it’s a pretty scary picture.
Pedrosa has been injured a total of 18 times counting yesterday and you just have to wonder if his size and weight, or better yet his small bone structure plays a part in the number of injuries he’s gone through and if at Le Mans Pedrosa was wearing his highly tooted Alpinestar’s Tech Air leathers and if they deployed.
