Seth Hammaker, who was enjoying a great start to the 2022 250SX West Supercross Series, suffered an injury that will sideline the Monster Energy/Pro Circuit/Kawasaki Team rider indefinitely. Hammaker announced on social media that he crashed during the week and suffered significant injuries.
Hammaker said, “Hey guys I hate to post this news but unfortunately this week I had a practice crash getting ready for San Diego. Grade 3 spleen laceration and compression fractures in T7 and T8 in my back. I’m gutted to say the least. The team and I have been working hard to bring our best every weekend. I appreciate there support through all of the good and bad! The main goal now is to heal up right and completely before we get back to racing. I will keep y’all informed of how long I will be out as we know a little more. Thanks to everyone for the support I will be back better and stronger.”
Hammaker rode well enough to get on the podium in both the Anaheim 1 and Oakland Supercross rounds and was hoping to continue his podium streak tomorrow in San Diego. The Florida resident is currently tied for second in the championship with Hunter Lawrence.
