Team HRC has recently announced that Brian Bogers will not be taking part in the MXGP in Sweden. The rider has suffered from a right-shoulder injury in Imola just last weekend.
Bogers was forced to withdraw from the race due to the crash. The Dutchman managed to see a specialist on Monday in Belgium. The doctors ordered for the Bogers to rest in order to recover but he remains unfit for Uddevalla this weekend.
Bogers has set sights on making his return in the next round in Turkey on September 7-8 which is the penultimate round of the world motocross championship.

“Obviously it is a big shame to be missing the Swedish GP this weekend. I tried my best to be ready for it, making sure to rest as much as possible but it just hasn’t healed in time to be able to race at MXGP level. I rode today (on Thursday), just to see if it was good enough but I knew after a few laps that I wouldn’t be able to race on Sunday. My aim now is to get back fully healthy for the following round in Turkey where I really want to show everyone again what I am capable of,” says Bogers as quoted from Honda Racing Corporation.
