“First of all, I’d like to thank everyone once again for sending me their best wishes. It’s impossible to reply to so many messages, but I’m very grateful,” said Max Nagl on Monday after undergoing further examinations in Belgium.
Examination in Belgium
“Today I had a second examination with Dr Claes in Herentals and, fortunately, it looks as though only my T4 vertebra may have a small fracture. Everything else seems to be fine. Of course, I have bruises and a large part of my body is aching, but now there is enough time for a full recovery,” Max explained after his consultation.

A chain of unfortunate circumstances
“At the moment, I don’t want to think about the championship standings. I’ve put in a lot of effort, training and energy. Thanks to my performances so far, my bike and the team around me, I’ve been able to hold onto the Red Plate since the first race. It’s hard to accept this change, especially because I had absolutely no control over the situation, which arose from a chain of unfortunate circumstances.”
Max Nagl thanks the fans
“Thanks to everyone who supports me: my team, my sponsors, my parents, my girlfriend and, of course, all my friends and fans. See you in Gaildorf!”
