FMF KTM Factory Racing’s Cody Webb is out of the 2018 Erzbergrodeo after sustaining a broken foot and a broken finger in a crash during day two of the Prologue. The extreme Red Bull Hare Scramble, held in Austria, serves as Round 2 of the 2018 World Enduro Super Series (WESS) in which Webb was slated to compete in alongside his European Red Bull KTM Factory Racing teammates.

 

Cody Webb: “After qualifying 10th, I went out for the second day of the Prologue and really early on, it was rough and I hit a rock or something and basically swapped really bad and fell off the bike. I did the best I could to hold on and saved it but ultimately, I went down. It’s just really unfortunate that it wasn’t even a super big crash but it ended up breaking my foot and my finger, and somehow the bike was completely unscathed. At this point, I’m looking forward to healing up now and making the best of it.”

 

Webb had high hopes on attempting to become the first American rider to be crowned Erzberg Champion. Finishing as runner-up in 2016 and then third in 2017, the 2018 SuperEnduro World Champion was looking forward to trying his bid at the 24th running of the extreme event.

Round 3 of the 2018 World Enduro Super Series (WESS) will take place June 8 – 10 in France with the Trefle Lozerien AMV.
