Aprilia rally rider Jacopo Cerutti was involved in a collision with another vehicle during a special stage at the RO Rally Marathon in Romania. Organizers confirmed Cerutti was not at fault and sustained fractures to his right tibia and fibula, as well as his left kneecap.
This is painful news. For us off-road riders, colliding with a vehicle that shouldn't have been on the course to begin with is an accident that should never happen. We ride knowing full well the risks of dirt and rocks. But this is on a whole different level. And Cerutti's not at fault at all. For now, I just hope his bones heal up solid.

Rally racing really is always living side-by-side with this kind of risk, huh.
Curious what the actual situation was for a vehicle-on-vehicle collision on a special stage.
Does 'collision with another vehicle' mean he crashed into another rider's bike?
Aprilia's rally lineup is pretty thin, so here's hoping for a quick recovery.
Getting caught up in a crash that isn't your fault is the most frustrating kind.
Tibia, fibula, and even the kneecap — that must have been a serious impact.
Wonder how long rehab will take — hope it doesn't carry over into next season.
