Smiths BMW’s Peter Hickman has been taken to Winchester Hospital for checks after feeling unwell at the Thruxton Bennetts British Superbike round.
The Lincolnshire man said yesterday he had probably picked something up either in Japan or on the plane home from the Suzuka Eight-Hours and joked he’d ‘taken enough Lemsip for a lifetime’.
He will miss warm-up at the Hampshire track but the team hope he will be back for race one at lunchtime.
UPDATE: Hickman is back at the track and has been declared fit to race
