It's a trick that Lucas Mahias will undoubtedly regret all his life, since a hand amputated with his little finger will constantly remind him of it. The French Supersport World Champion intended to take advantage of an original experience with a MotoE during the Valencia Grand Prix. An opportunity, too, to make contacts in the community. But the experience was cut short with a violent fall...
The Supersport driver Lucas Mahias had just seriously injured the little finger of his right hand during this performance in MotoE at the Valencia Grand Prix. It quickly became clear that the Kawasaki rider would have to resign himself to an amputation: “ the little finger of my right hand was quite damaged ", has explained Mahias. “ I have had two surgeries. In Spain, amputation took place until the first part. Back in France, the finger was not at all beautiful and after consulting my doctor, I decided to have the second amputated »
More than this unpleasant outcome, the thirty-year-old was especially upset at having missed the first tests of the off-season. “ I had to skip the Jerez test after the crash in MotoE. It was not easy to see the lap times in the test only in live timing " commented Mahias on speedweek. " At least this accident didn't happen in the middle of the season. However, it's not an easy situation, I had some plans for the winter. I will definitely be fit for the next test and ready for the new season, with a little little finger...» At least the humor is not lost!
