Racer X contacted American Honda Racing's Trey Canard this afternoon, and Canard explained that he has indeed rebroken his femur in his crash yesterday afternoon during the second moto at Washougal. The break is similar to the one he incurred in April. Luckily, he has not damaged the rod that his been in his leg since he originally broke the femur at Washougal in 2008, so the injury is not as complicated as it could have been.
When Canard broke his femur this year, it knocked him out of racing from April up until last weekend's return at Millville, so chances are he will not be able to return for the conclusion of the 2011 Lucas Oil AMA Pro Motocross tour. Look for a more exact timetable to be released soon via his team. And we'll keep you posted on his status.
Get well soon, Trey!
