Phil pulled off the track immediately. He wrote on Instagram that he didn’t break any bones, but hide the children, because his finger got destroyed.

Sometimes you have to pay the toll to rock and roll. With the shortened year already, I’m bummed to end my season early. Racing is racing and sometimes you get the short end of the stick. It always sucks to fail and not complete the end goal, but I still enjoy riding and grinding! Thank you to everybody that reached out.
