A TT sidecar passenger injured in a crash last week has given an update on his recovery.
Shaun Parker came off with Maria Costello at Brandish during last Tuesday's practice session and is currently in hospital in Liverpool.
In a video posted to Facebook, he says he's recovering from injuries including broken ankles, a broken jaw, and a collapsed lung.
But he revealed one wound in particular had prevented him from responding to well-wishers:
