Attack Suzuki’s Jason Pridmore broke his left tibia just below the knee in a crash during Monday’s AMA Formula Xtreme race at Virginia International Raceway.

That’s the word from American Suzuki’s Morgan Broadhead. “He’s in good spirits and not in much pain,” said Broadhead Tuesday morning in the Greensboro, North Carolina airport. “He’s planning on seeing Dr. Ting today to get another evaluation. He won’t be racing at Barber (Motorsports Park, September 19-21), but he hopes to be back for the final round of the World Endurance Championship October 5 in (Vallalunga) Italy.”

Pridmore collided with Roger Lee Hayden early in the Formula Xtreme race. Hayden walked away from the incident but did not make the restart of the race.

“Basically, it was my fault, bad judgment. I made a mistake. It was the first time I’ve crashed and taken someone with me in 14 years of racing,” said Pridmore.
