'Just took a quick nap, I'll be okay' - Jalek Swoll Provides Update from SMX Playoff 1 Start Crash
Jalek Swoll, Triumph Factory Racing, crashed off the opening 250SMX start at zMax Dragway for the first round of the SuperMotocross World Championship Playoffs in North Carolina. When the gate dropped, he got edged out by Haiden Deegan, slightly going off the track and losing the front end to a nasty hit to the ground. The incident resulted in a red flag restart for Jalek's and the medic crew's safety, and he was out for the day after the crash.
He posted an update to Instagram, stating, "Just took a quick nap on Saturday. I'll be okay."
Jalek drops back to 17th overall in the 250SMX Championship ahead of Texas this weekend, and we're glad he's "okay."
