Shane McElrath will miss start of the supercross season
Shane McElrath sees his supercross debut in the 450 class postponed for a while. The American crashed during training and suffered a grade 3 AC separation. This means that the capsule is torn, but also that two other ligaments are torn. The shoulder blade has therefore shifted downwards, so that the collarbone is now higher than the shoulder blade. It is not known exactly how long McElrath will be out of action. What is certain is that the SmarTop/Bullfrog Spas/MotoConcepts/Honda rider will have to start the 2021 supercross season on the sidelines.
