From a press release:

First-year Expert Greg Moore broke his right humerus at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course during Saturday’s AMA Superstock race. Moore left Mansfield Medical Center to make the long drive back to University of Alabama at Birmingham Hospital, which is located near Moore’s residence.

UAB’s Head of Orthopedic Trauma, Dr. George Alonso, suggested that Moore try a special brace that will allow the bone to adhere without having surgery.

When asked about the race, Moore said, “I felt like I was running some pretty good lap times. As I exited turn eight, the back end (of the bike) stepped out and I highsided. I really didn’t know what else happened until I arrived at the hospital and was told that I was run over. It should take about five or six weeks to heal, so I should be ready for Barber, if not VIR (Virginia International Raceway).”
