Red Bull KTM Chase Sexton had a violent crash early in the Main Event in Nashville. He came up short on the double on the start straight and went over the bars into the corner. He was down for a bit before exiting the track on his own accord.
And positive news for @chasesexton, he’s now been cleared of injury after exiting the 450SX Main Event in Nashville.
KTM gave a quick update on Instagram about Sexton’s condition and it looks like he checked out without any injuries and should be available to race next weekend in Philadelphia.
KTM also said that a rock cracked the throttle body, causing the throttle to stick, which made him crash. This news was first reported by Jason Weigandt, the singer of the Creed two stroke deal.
KTM says a rock broke throttle on Sexton’s bike so the throttle stuck. No broken bones but he is banged up. I asked Mitch Payton if he had any updates on his guys and he said “not yet.” I don’t have any info on Kenny yet
