Lintin update: stabilising but still 'very unwell'

Rider injured at Southern 100

TT winner Ivan Lintin is described as 'still very unwell' after a serious crash at the Southern 100.

The Lincolnshire racer was involved in an incident on 12 July, which also claimed the life of fellow competitor James Cowton.

Lintin's team, Dafabet Devitt Racing, confirmed this week he is still in intensive care, but is stabilising and responding well to treatment.

Though the outlook is not yet clear, his team colleagues say they are remaining 'optimistic' and have asked fans to carry on sending messages of support.

Further updates have been promised in the coming days.
