MotoGP rider Cal Crutchlow has shared stomach-churning photos and video footage of his wrist surgery, following an injury he sustained at the season-opener in Jerez.
The LCR Honda rider underwent surgery on his wrist and surprisingly was declared fit for the following round, the Andalusian GP, where he competed and finished 13th.
This week Crutchlow shared footage of the surgery to his left scaphoid, and be warned, it’s not for the faint-hearted!

Fellow riders Fabio Quartararo and Takaaki Nakagami commented on the post, with both leaving “vomit” emojis.
Crutchlow has struggled this season so far, scoring just seven points from the opening five races, but remains motivated by his passion for the sport.
“If I didn’t love it and didn’t want to do it, I wouldn’t want to ride next year – and I do,” he commented.
“I still want to be able to be fast, I still am fast. I can guarantee you now, I am still fast,” he added. “My motivation is high, my positivity is always good. I don’t get on the bike thinking it’s a job.”
