Talkback: Hopkins breaks foot at Monza

If I was Hopper, by now, I'd seriously be starting to think that someone upstairs is trying to tell me something...is there ANYTHING else that could go wrong for him?

Get well soon Hopper (we all seem to be saying this FAR too much)...

Hopper don't get a lot of good luck does he Pagik ?

Got to agree, the guys got talent but he's really not had luck on his side since he's got back into it!

Even his wildcards in GP got scuppered. I wish him well for recovery and hope he's back fighting soon.

And yes, it does seem to be happening far too much. Quite a few of these have been down to frankly idiotic decisions to race when suitable tyres are simply not available.

I know it sucks for the spectators, but if the weather is simply not providing a reasonably environment to race in, some form of alternative, be it a total cancel or shift of date have to be available.

As for the well that's no good for the spectacle of it crew. Neither is having half the grid walking wounded, not racing at all, or worse, not going home that night.

Sure, it's dangerous, but someone shouldn't die because of the stupidity of accountants.

Hopper I love ya but you have a life ahead of you!
At 55 my broken ankles - dislocated hips and the plate with 6 screws in my neck, all act like a weather vane.
I still ride but I know I have to stop hitting the ground !
Love ya Haul ASS !!!!

The poor guy juts can't catch a break..!

Well Hell, that's racing. He's done alright out of it. Hopskin was supposed to be the messiah, but he's just a very naughty boy.

He certainly WAS pyndman, no doubt. BUT, he's turned that all around, and you've simply GOTTA admire that.
