hows this for a shot!
Poor bugger was sliding along his back quite fine until he hit the lip of the gravel track which spat him in the air - looked pretty bad at speed!

I was once in that particular pose myself, right before I spent 2 months in hospital and a further 10 months rehab!

Oh, the memories!🤪

What also helped launch Barros was the new back protector the GP guys now wear. It's a large hump high up on the leathers to help reduce impact and helmet injuries which can cut the spine in a neck jerk. With Barros sliding on his back and then hitting the sand trap lip with the back protector he basically launched himself. He's alright - bruised and winded. Barros should have retired last year.

Bat69, what was I saying about liking 4 wheels? Let me just say it again. I fell of way too many pushies to want to do it any faster. :puke
