Red Bull KTM’s Aaron Plessinger has released an update following his first moto crash at round 5 of the Pro Motocross Championship at RedBud on Saturday.
Per a post on his social media account, Plessinger said he sustained a “nice cut” above his tailbone and that the Alpinestars Medic Unit “got me cleaned up, stitched up and on my way” after his crash off the start of the first 450 moto.
Plessinger said he didn’t sustain any broken bones, and that he will “be back as soon as I can.”
“First off thank you to everyone that has checked in on me and well redbud did not go as I expected.. It’s such a bummer to go down like that without even a lap in. I ended up getting a decent jump out of the gate and going down in the first corner and as soon as I hit the ground I got hit from behind, It tore my pants and gave me a nice cut right on my tailbone. The guys over at Alpinestars Medic unit got me cleaned up, stitched up and on my way, I want to thank them for that. As much as it sucks im glad it’s not worse and I’m glad nothing is broken. Gonna get this wound healed up and be back as soon as I can. Thank you everyone for your support! Hoping this black cloud I’m under passes by soon.”
The Pro Motocross Championship heads to Southwick this Saturday for round 6 of the championship. Through five rounds, Plessinger is currently 10th in points.
