It will be up to Connor/his family to decide if and when anything is released not the club. The club asking people to be patient and not speculate seems very reasonable to me. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's just hope they are not to serious and he gets well soon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WookieboyDon Posted April 21 Report Share Posted April 21 Jack Smith has been posting photos on Instagram of the two of them together with prayer emojis on them. Hopefully it's not as serious as feared. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WookieboyDon Posted April 22 Report Share Posted April 22 Buxton have now released an official statement. Connor Coles was airlifted to hospital after extensive medical treatment at the track. This involved medics administering pain relief before placing him into a medically induced coma due to a head injury. He has been slowly making slight improvements but the current state of his brain injury is unknown. Let's keep Connor in our thoughts and pray for a full recovery. 🙏 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were bar to bar on the backstraight of lap 2 and got tangled together just before entering bend 3. Seen a few comments on social media from people who weren't there that seem to know everything, or so they think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diamonds85 Posted May 7 Report Share Posted May 7 What average would Jack Roberts come in on? I know Buxton have 4.36 remaining, would he be an assessed 4.00? How does it work? Did he even have an average back in the day? I can't really remember him tbh, but he looks good. Perfect rider to help make a comeback into British speedway, we need more riders, not less.
