McGuinness's TT in doubt after North West 200 crash

Thu, 11 May 2017

John McGuinness could miss this year's TT after crashing at the North West 200 in Northern Ireland this afternoon.

The 23-time TT winner has been taken to hospital in Belfast with a suspected broken leg after coming off his superbike in practice at the event.

Honda confirmed the 45-year-old, who also has six previous wins at the North West, was conscious following the incident.

However, if the fracture is confirmed it's likely to prevent McGuinness competing at the TT, with the start of practice week just 16 days away.
