In the past few hours, a video depicting Jorge Prado experiencing a severe crash during supercross training has started circulating on social media. He toppled over the handlebars at the end of the whoops, with his body colliding against the face of the subsequent jump. The footage quickly went viral, raising concerns about his 450SX debut.
The Mx1onboard team reached out to those close to the Spanish rider, and fortunately, the fall resulted in no significant consequences. They have also clarified that the incident occurred a week ago, and Prado is continuing with his training regimen as scheduled for his upcoming participation in Anaheim 1 on January 6. In essence, it was merely a frightening moment with no lasting impact.
But fortunately, according to MX1onboard, who confirmed it was indeed Prado in the footage, heard their sources close to Prado say he is fine and the crash was a week ago, saying, “the fall had no major consequences.”
