Honda Racing's Dan Linfoot will not only miss this weekend's Suzuka Eight-Hours after his Brands British Superbike crash but is also out of the Thruxton and Cadwell rounds too.

Linfoot broke his left scaphoid in the race-one crash and the injury was confirmed during scans in hospital yesterday.

"With Dan’s full recovery time unclear at the moment, he will however miss the next two rounds at Thruxton and Cadwell Park. The team will look into options to replace Dan aboard the CBR1000RR Fireblade at the next few rounds," said a team statement.
