John Hopkins

Glad Ant West is making a comeback....



I had a heavy day on the Czech beer at Brno a few years back and went to a charity auction. Lot 5.... The Kawasaki racing pit shirt signed by Hopper and Ant West. I thought, I like Hopper, this has got my name on it.



Steve Parrish is the auctioneer. He says " Ok who will give £50 for the shirt " I then instantly say " I will give you a £150 "...Parrish says " anyone give me £160 ? " and I say " Yes "

Parrish says " Sold to the guy who outbid himself from £50 to £160 "



After buying the shirt, Hopper's and Westy's career seemed to take a nose dive......But I broke the shirt out at Laguna and things are looking up again for the pair of them.



Point to note. After outbid myself for the shirt, I then proceeded to wash it and the signatures disappeared

'In case of emergency break glass' Wills

Hopper can't come back to motogp. The mobile clinica budget will not allow it.

Far out....Hopper cant take a trick at the moment.



This is being reported on crash....

.

John Hopkins is recovering after undergoing surgery on his injured hand once again, the American having contracted a serious infection.



Hopkins has since revealed, in a series of 'tweets' on his Twitter account, that he was taken to hospital early in the morning [Saturday] to have emergency surgery after getting an infection due to his body struggling to accept the new bone.



“Been a very rough day! Was rushed to the hospital at 4am due to severe swelling/pain/infection and had to have an emergency surgery, which now makes it the 4th on this finger (26 in total)! Infection caused by body struggling to take the new bone! All is fixed again and back on track! So sick of the smallest bone I've ever broke giving by far the worst drama but Dr says 3 more weeks & it'll be healed! (sic)”



Get well soon Hopper - your luck can only get better.
 
Westy's reputation for being excellent in the rain seems to go above and beyond how well he actually has gone in the rain recently.

I thought he had a pretty impressive ride at Valencia. I believe it's an FTR he's on at MZ, but I'm not convinced it's much of a competitive package. To get up to the top five, I thought was pretty impressive.
 
Jesus Christ man, Hopkin's life is cursed. Dude got sick over the weekend from autoimmune rejection complications from finger surgery. Btw, Nicky is in Cali today getting surgery on his wrist.



Hope all goes well.

Whats he having done, plated ?

Nicky is getting screws in his wrist cuz healing was going slow. So its to speed up the process. But its a bit worrisome because these injuries can become complicated. You may recall Stoner had a similar problem and it caused him much trouble. He eventually had to get a bone graft.

Well hopfully it will heal like stoners. It caused him problems with a dead bone iirc, but then we heard no more and he was winning again. I guess it shows when the treatment is right it heals quickly.
