Team Roadracingworld.com Suzuki’s Santiago Villa will miss the rest of the 2008 AMA road racing season due to injuries suffered in a crash Sunday at Miller Motorsports Park in Utah. Villa, a promising racer from Bogota, Colombia with several Colombian National Championships to his name, joined Team Roadracingworld.com for 2008 and has been competing in the AMA Superstock Championship. Villa broke his femur and his hip at Miller Motorsports Park and doctors have told him he will be unable to race for three to four months while he recovers. Santiago hopes to return to racing at Daytona in October. “Santiago was making steady progress despite injuries from his crash in April at Fontana and the serious burns he suffered–while riding for another team–in a refueling accident at Daytona in October, 2007,” said Team Roadracingworld.com’s Chris Ulrich. “He was soldiering on like the true motorcycle racer that he is and was making progress at the difficult tracks. It’s a bummer for us and for Santiago. We know he wants to be out there competing and learning. It’s a big disappointment for us because he is a pleasure to work with and we were pleased with his efforts. We hope his recovery goes to plan so he can get back to racing, which is something he loves doing and certainly has a talent for.” This just in: Santiago Villa is hospitalized at Intermountain Medical Center.
