URBINO, Italy -- Six-time MotoGP champion Valentino Rossi fears he may have broken his right leg after a training accident in Italy on Thursday.
According to Italian media reports, Rossi fell during enduro training and fractured his tibia and fibula.
"I spoke to him, his leg really hurts and Valentino is not optimistic ... it's a disaster," his father, Graziano Rossi, told Italian national news agency Ansa.
"I know that they still have to do an X-ray and they fear it's broken. To do the X-ray they have to cut off the boot and Valentino told me he is in a lot of pain.
