WorldSBK Assen: ‘I couldn’t walk, happy to do race distance’ - van der Mark
In the minds of many there was no way BMW Motorrad’s Michael van der Mark was going to get on the grid for his home WorldSBK event at Assen. Not just a few weeks after he broke his lower right leg badly in a mountain bike accident in mid-March. He needed two plates and lots of large screws to hold it together after his crash. And hold his ankle joint immobile for a time.
