Injury Rules Grabham Out of the Finke

Australia's desert racing legend Ben Grabham will miss the Finke Desert Race in June and the Hattah Desert Race in July after being injured at the Condo 750 over the Easter weekend...

After winning the Quit Forest Rally in Western Australia on March 31/ April 1, the KTM rider arrived at the Condo 750 focused on repeating his recent success.

Grabham was leading the second day of the 800km long event in Condobolin, NSW when he crashed after making contact with a pack of kangaroos crossing the course.

The HSE Motorex KTM rider was taken to Westmead Hospital in Sydney with fractures to his right radius and collarbone, and fractured vertebrae in the T4-T9 region.

Grabham has since had surgery on his radius and collarbone and is expected to make a full recovery over the coming months.
