Nicky Hayden Pays the Price for X Games Participation
By Dirck Edge
Repsol Honda has announced that Nicky Hayden will miss next weekend's Brno round of the MotoGP series due to an injury sustained by Hayden at the X Games a week and one-half ago. Hayden injured his heel landing from a jump on the SuperMoto course. Hayden stated he had the permission of his employer HRC to participate in the X Games
The timing of the injury is particularly bad for Hayden given his need to perform well over the next few races to gain negotiating leverage for a contract next year.
