Lee Johnston has broken his leg, so is a doubt to compete at the 2024 North Wesꩵt 200.

Johnston suffered the injury three weeks ago while testing in Cartagena, Spain bu🍰t has only 💖confirmed it now.

It threatens his participation at the North West 200 in May. He had hoped to𒆙 return to the eve🎀nt where, last year, he was involved in a horrific crash.

Speaking on his YouTube channel, ♊Johnston said: "I broke my right tibula and fibula literally in the first session.

"It could have been worse and in a faster corner.

"It wasn't a mechanical issue. Just a part broke, so𒆙 it 💫was nobody's fault involved with the bike.

"I needed to ride a bike, and that trac⛦k day was my only option, at the time."

Johnston 𓃲was testing alo💎ne in Spain when he crashed.

He was hospitalised but signed himself out of the local hospital. He returned tꦉo England where he h🌼as undergone two operations.

Johnston will no longer compete at this week's Daytona 200, as he✱ had planned to do.
