Nicky Hayden remains hospitalized in serious condition two days after being hit by a car on his bicycle while training on the Rimini coast in Italy.
The prognosis remains guarded.
The 35-year-old was treated on the scene for life-threatening injuries following his crash, and then was taken to a local hospital in serious condition with chest and head trauma.
He was then transported to the Bufalini hospital in Cesena Tuesday night and was placed in a medically induced coma.
On Thursday, it was made public that Hayden had suffered severe brain damage. Hayden’s fiancé Jackie, brother Tommy and mother Rose are by his side.
