Troy Co🧸rser has revealed that he r꧅aced to a pair of tenth place finishes at Assen, despite having a broken bone in his hand.

The Australian rider was still reelin🃏g fro♐m injuries picked up in an accident during testing at Monza, but it only became apparent recently that he was racing with a broken bone in his left hand.

Nonetheless, Corser persevered, choosing agai𒈔nst taking pain-killing injections, but still managing to record two decent top ten finishes on the BMW. Although it wasn't the result he wanted, Corser was satisfi🦋ed to come away with respectable points having started down in 15th position.

"Of course, I am not happy with 10th place but considering my grid position and my left hand, I think today's results have been pretty good. I didn't know that I h🏅ad broken a bone in my left hand until recently, because it didn't show up on the X-rays in Monza during the tests.

"But as the days went on, I sort of felt that something wasn't quite right and that was proved to be so when I had some more X-rays recently. I decided not to have pain-killing injections today because when you have them, you can also lose feeling and sensation in the hand and that was the last thing I wanted when ওI was diving into a corner at high speed.

"So, I just had a coupl𝕴e of normal pills instead. Obviously they weren't very strong and I certainly knew that I was in pain in the second race, but you just have to ignore it and k♛eep going.
