Tim Gajser was primed and ready to fight for a podium spot at the MXGP of Switzerland, however his hopes were dashed, and the red plate owner left the Frauenfeld circuit extremely dejected with what happened.

The red-plate holder was thrown from his bike on a high-speed portion of the track, where due to his location, he had to wait a long time for medical assistance. Eventually the doctors got to the Slovenian and were able to take him to the on-site facilities where tests and exams took place to assess the situation.

At this stage there is no definitive conclusion, but further tests will be done tomorrow, where Gajser – who still leads the 2025 MXGP Championship by 27 points – will be able to prepare himself for Portugal in two weeks’ time.

Tim Gajser: Definitely not how I hoped the day would end, especially after the second-place in the first moto. I felt like I was doing okay, finding some different lines so I could make my move and try to win the race. I wasn’t too far off the line, but my rear wheel hit a solid mound and just bucked me off the bike. I was sitting off the track for a long time before medics were able to get to me, but eventually we were able to get checked out. After those results, I will get further tests done tomorrow and see where I’m at. I will keep fighting though and use this weekend off to recover as best as possible for Portugal.
