OXFORDSHIRE rider Bradley Smith fractured the first and fourth toes in a crash during a practice session in the wet ahead of tomorrow’s Malaysian Moto2 Grand Prix at Sepang.
But the injuries are not expected to prevent Tech 3 Racing’s Smith from competing in the race.
Smith has a great record in Sepang, finishing second in the 125cc race in 2008 and 2009.
