Default I'm sitting here all worried

My mate Olie Linsdell has crashed heavily at Bishopscourt (flat out in top gear corner) while racing in the Manx GP and is reported to have major head injuries. He's in Nobles after being airlifted but it's not good news and I've got my fingers crossed

All the best Olie

Just had news from the IoM. Olie has been transfered to Liverpool
hospital in an induced coma. He doesn't have any brain bleeding but he
is still critical. There are other injuries to his lung, eye socket and
ankle. I'm told he'll be in the induced coma for at least two days.
Apparently he hit a backmarker flat out in top.

Mate that sucks big time. Really really hope he is ok.

He's had a hard time of it, didn't he have a bad one last year?

GWS Olie.
