MotoAmerica star provides update from hospital after “big and weird” face-plant crash
Ex-Moto2 racer and๊ MotoAmerica Superbike rider Sean Dylan Kelly is in hospital after crashing in training.

Sean Dylan K꧟elly, the former Mജoto2 racer and MotoAmerica Superbike race winner, has been hospitalised after a crash during training.
Kelly, who won his first MotoAmerica Superbike race at the Circuit of the Americas last year while riding for the TopPro BMW team, was riding his supermoto bike when he cr✅ashed last Thursday♒.
The💛 American was put in a🎃 neck brace and taken to hospital, and shared the following details in an Instagram post on Sunday (19 January).
“I had ꧙a big (and weird) face-plant crash o🐻n my supermoto on Thursday. It left me pretty confused.
“Luckiꦅly I had amazing people with me and it made everythin🌄g come to me slowly but surely.
“I’m all good, I’m gonna need to take it easy for a few more days now, tℱime to focus on othe🔜r things, I think I’ve been riding enough.”
Kelly moved to Moto2 in 2022, following his title success in the 2021 MotoAmerica Supersport class, achieving a best resu💖lt of 11th in that year’s Thai Grand Prix.
An injury in the middle of 2023 saw him miss four races in a row, and eventually led to his mid-season departure from the American Racing team he’d gone to the Grand Prix paddock🍸 with.
𓆉Kelly returned with the Forward team at the San Marino Grand Prix but scored only one point (in Indonesia) in the remaining races of 2023, and returned to the US in 2024 with the aforementi💙oned TopPro BMW team where he finished fourth in the Superbike class.

Ale♋x joined the team in August of 2024 having covered consumer and racing motorcycle news at Visordown for two years.
