Kneedraggers.com Yamaha’s Matt Wait was injured in a crash Saturday during Formula USA Sportbike qualifying at New Hampshire International Speedway in Loudon, New Hampshire.

Wait was riding his Yamaha in the closing moments of the 30-minute Sportbike qualifying session when he collided with Dana Stanley going into NHIS’s turn six, or the “Bowl” turn, according to Wait’s father John Wait.

Wait and Stanley both crashed and were taken to NHIS’s infield care center. Wait is expected to be transported to Concord Hospital in Concord, New Hampshire for a suspected dislocated right shoulder and broken ribs on his right side, according to Wait’s family, but Stanley’s condition was not known at post time.

According to Wait’s team, Wait will most likely sit out Saturday night’s Formula USA dirt track event in nearby Rochester, New Hampshire and Sunday’s Formula USA Sportbike and Superbike races at NHIS.
