This belongs in the WTF category, Rossi injured while closing the curtains!!!! :eek:

ROSSI TO TEST AS PLANNED AFTER RECEIVING STITCHES TO HAND AND FOOT

Valentino Rossi has received stitches to his left hand and left foot, after a slight accident at his home in Italy. The Fiat Yamaha rider was closing the curtains in his house when he tripped and fell onto a glass table, which broke, cutting the ring finger of his left hand and the sole of his left foot. He went straight to the hospital and received a few stitches to each injury.

The injuries are not serious but it is not yet clear whether or not they will make him uncomfortable when riding this week. Nevertheless Rossi will fly out to Malaysia today as planned, where he will try to give 100% at the first test of the season, which starts on Thursday.

Nice PR job by his people but I wouldn't be surprised if he was actually partying hard when he did that s***

Well releasing a PR piece entitled "Rossi injured after stumbling through glass table while blind drunk/other" doesn't quite work as well, does it :D ;) :p

At the track he is not an accident prone, the problem closing the curtains or such typical of job is not what Rossi mastering at.

This is good that finally he can attend the crucial test before the season starts off.
