Nico gives Hawk a miss
By TMX Archives on 2nd Mar 12
Nico Aubin was withdrawn from the Hawk International as a precaution after he had battled manfully through the British SX finale with a leg-injury sustained practising at Mepal.
The Frenchman will return to racing at FatCat next weekend for the Maxxis opener.
Tanel Leok was missing from Hawkstone after damaging ankle ligaments in a practice collision.
His Suzuki colleague Petar Petrov sat out the UK race with a finger injury from Valence, while Greg Aranda is nursing an ankle-injury from the French race, but hopes to be back racing in time for the French championship opener at Romagne.
Meanwhile, Ken De Dycker was gutting it out at Lacapelle, having hurt his knee at Valence: "I didn't dare put my foot down and I had to be really careful.
"But after each moto the knee was swelling up more and more so I decided to skip the final race.”Nico Aubin was withdrawn from the Hawk International as a precaution after he had battled manfully through the British SX finale with a leg-injury sustained practising at Mepal.
