Team Blimpie Yoshimura Suzuki’s Mat Mladin was released from Halifax Medical Center Saturday morning.

Yamaha’s Anthony Gobert had a puncture wound to his upper chest/neck area that was originally believed to be a compound fracture of his collar bone. No fractures were found and Gobert was released from the hospital Saturday morning.

Aaron Gobert is still in Intensive Care after undergoing surgery to repair his broken lower right leg at 5:00 a.m. Eastern Time Saturday. The younger Gobert is being closely monitored for complications from multiple broken ribs and a head injury, but his condition is said to be non-life-threatening.

Randy Renfrow was discharged from Halifax Medical Center Saturday morning. Renfrow was injured in a crash during the CCS/Formula USA race weekend.

Speedway officials said that getting detailed medical conditions on racers was very difficult because Halifax Medical Center has been overwhelmed by street rider injuries.
