Injured Wilson feels ready to ride at Assen as cast comes off his broken leg

It could be a case of third time lucky for Ben Wilson this weekend.

He was hoping to return to racing at Cadwell Park just two weeks after breaking his leg in two places some six weeks ago, but the medical team at the circuit deemed him unfit to race.

Three weeks later he tried again at Oulton Park but he still was not passed fit to race and had to sit it out for a second time.

But now he has had the cast removed at the hospital he should be passed fit to race at Assen in the Netherlands this weekend.

Wilson has been busy in the gym strengthening the muscles in his leg and having treatment from the physio and says he feels in good shape and more than ready to get back on the bike.

The timetable is: Friday – free practice 9.40am and 2.45pm.

Saturday – qualifying 11.35am; 12-lap sprint race 3.25pm.

Sunday – warm-up 9am; 15-lap feature race 3.40pm.
