Mike Bushell “conscious and responsive” after Thruxton crash

AmD Tuning’s Mike Bushell is “conscious and responsive” in hospital after a heavy accident at Thruxton which left him with a suspected broken femur.

Bushell’s Ford Focus ST was leaving the pitlane when he made contact with Speedworks Motorsport’s Simon Belcher, who was coming around Allard on a flying lap.

The two both hit the wall and were both able to get out of their cars before being taken to the circuit’s medical centre. After tests, Bushell was transferred to Southampton General Hospital.

Everyone at TouringCarTimes extends their best wishes to Bushell for a speedy recovery.

The official BTCC Twitter account posted the following update on Bushell’s condition:
