Ian Hutchinson

It's being reported that record breaking TT rider Ian Hutchinson has broken his leg again.

The eight time winner has undergone 19 operations since breaking his leg in 2010, just months after becoming the first rider to win all five solo TT races in one week.

He was unable to race for more than a year after the crash at Silverstone.

It's understood Hutchy twisted his leg awkwardly whilst rehearsing for a stunt show in London this morning.

There's been no official confirmation of the injury, but an eyewitness has described the Yorkshire rider as clearly being in a lot of pain after the incident.
