Tye Simmonds – Bronchitis
Comment: JDR/J-Star/KTM rider Tye Simmonds is out this weekend after being diagnosed with rhinosinusitis and bronchitis earlier this week. Says team manager Nathan Ramsey: “We will wait to hear from the doctors and make our decision on when Tye should return to racing based upon those results. We definitely don’t want to jeopardize his health by sending him to a race when he is not 100% physically.”
Austin Stroupe – Shoulder
Comment: You may not see Austin this summer. His shoulder injury from last year was still nagging, so he went under the knife after supercross. He could be back by mid-season, depending on how the recovery goes.

What about Thommy Hahn? Any word on his injury from Budds?
They for got my injured elbow, from tippin' back cold ones watching all this live MX...LOVE IT!!! thank you fuel and speed and racer X
Although Jeff Alessi took Grant out at PHX in thje form of payback for all the 33 vs 800 nonsense, I guess its karma he is still out for the season....
hey Racer X guys, how about and update or interview with Josh Hill, is he going to race next year at SX?
James has that growth that is causing issues, its called a Sorby. Now that guy is a motivater if I ever saw one!
Lets get Darryn Durham on Ryan Mo's factory zook. Cant believe that crash took Tommy hahn out!
What about Stewie? How's his ego doing after Supercross? Still hurtin? Aww! Poor wittle guy! :'(
You forgot to mention Pourcel's hurt ego.
Yes, what about Stewart....he must be feeling so awful now...Some sniffles and coughs holding up the big boy? Then, our favorite Frenchman....pull out the white flag, he's giving in to the summer heat....Must be tough for these guys. Now, the 13 year old mowing my lawn this summer, he's rock solid - I would pick him over both the loser pro riders when it comes to morals, work ethic, and just about anthing else involved in living life...and he doesnt blow mx reporters like all over this site and others.....
What about Marvin Musquin?
You mean Pourcels sore ovaries??
all you guys making fun of purcel are losers. are you aware that he cant sweat! do you have any Idea how hard it would be race a 40 min moto at his pace even if you could cool yourself down with sweat. he is a great rider whos style and speed deserve nothing but respect.
What about the respect that is owed to the team and personnel supporting him? Listening to DV explain what happened was one of the weirdest things ive seen I dont even think DV could comprehend it? yea he is a good rider, but with actions like these he should go it alone like Reed, if hes that good he should do well huh.
