The accident occurred last Sunday during a race in Italy. Young Anykščiai was airlifted from the runway to Cremona Hospital. There, stopping inflammation of the brain after an injury caused an artificial coma. The next information 15 minutes approved by Giedrė Janušauskė, Secretary General of the Lithuanian Motorcycle Sports Federation (LMSF). According to her, more information will be provided when the athlete’s family so wishes.

During the ninth stage of the Motocross World Championship, Lombardy GP, one of the championship leaders, Armin Jasikonis, collapsed during the second MXGP race and lost consciousness. The Lithuanian was in the top six at the time.

Unfortunately, Armino’s accident was not filmed during the broadcast, so no further details are known (see 4-min MXGP class rides.)

Antti Pyrhönen, head of the Rockstar Energy Husqvarna team, said that Armin’s situation is very serious, but he is in good hands: the Lithuanian is being treated not only by specialists from Italy, but also from the hospital in Innsbruck (Austria).
