StephenMiller 74 Posted May 10, 2018 The below is the statement posted on Mitchell's website :- Quote Following last nights crash at Birmingham Mitchell has been admitted to the Critical Care Unit at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital. Mitchell is currently conscious and in a stable condition but still requires oxygen to help him breathe. Early tests and scans have shown that he has suffered a punctured lung, several chipped vertebrae, a broken shoulder blade and 12 broken ribs. At this time we are awaiting further tests on the severity of his punctured lung and the hope is that no surgery will be required. Mitchell and his family would like to thank the first aiders and ambulance staff at Birmingham Speedway for their response and help immediately after the crash, and to everyone for their messages of support at such a difficult time. We hope to bring you a further update on Mitchell’s condition as soon as we can. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jrs 3,284 Posted May 10, 2018 Thanks Osirian for posting that update. Just when Mitchell had started the year so well this happens. Wishing Mitchell a speedy recovery, and thoughts are with family and friends. Good luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 10,683 Posted May 10, 2018 Thats some list! No mention of head injury so hope that means initial fears with that have subsided. All the best to Mitchell and his family. Also need to acknowledge the fantastic work of medical team at the track (and indeed those all around the country) 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also need to acknowledge the fantastic work of medical team at the track (and indeed those all around the country) Must admit that's the part I'm more happier about because the head injury seemed to be the thing that most concerned the professionals on scene. I hope this proves to be not true too. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

uk_martin 1,606 Posted May 10, 2018 Best wishes for speedy recoveries to Mitchell Davey, Sam Bebee and Jordan Jenkins. Mitchell's injuries have been listed above, but let's not forget Bebee's broken wrist and Jenkins's three broken vertebrae in his lower back. These lads paid a heavy price for our entertainment last night. Let it not be forgotten when the BEN Fund collections come round later in the year. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheScotsman 2,482 Posted May 10, 2018 Deary me what an appalling set of injuries to all concerned. Best wishes to all involved. Mitch is one of the nicest lads around. But has never had any good luck. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
