Nicky Hayden with Pain on Catalunya

Nicky Hayden Catalunya 2012

Nicky Hayden finished ninth on the Catalunya GP yesterday. The American rider got problem on his right hand after felt on the qualifying session on Saturday.

Hayden said, “It was very difficult for me because I started having a problem with my hand going to sleep. I felt it a little bit in qualifying yesterday, so we did some treatment last night with the team physio, but the problem returned in the race."

He continue, "I’ve had it happen a couple of other times in my career, and around here, with so much hard braking, I could hardly feel the brake lever or the throttle. On the straightaway, I could move my fingers and get some feeling back, but then it would return."

"My pace was okay in the beginning, but after that group got away I really just tried to bring the bike home without crashing, since I couldn't feel how hard I was braking. Hopefully it won’t come up in the tests, because I think we can make some improvements." said Hayden again.
