A major accident during the British Supersport Championship race in the UK has led to the tragic deaths of two motorcycle racers who succumbed to their injuries.
The accident took place on Monday at the Oulton Park racetrack. On the first lap, a pile-up involving 11 athletes took place as they exited the first turn. The race was immediately stopped, and emergency medical assistance was provided directly at the crash site.
47-year-old Tom Tunstall was rushed to the hospital with abdominal and spinal injuries. Five other racers were taken to the medical facility on-site with minor injuries, while three other competitors involved in the incident emerged unscathed.
