MM93 had a big crash at Becketss this morning.

Front tucked at near 170mph and he slid for a long time including a few barrel rolls. then got up and walked away!

I just watched this - that front went very early.

He was very lucky. If he caught the ground and tumbled, god knows how broken he would have been. luckily he slid.
