Teams support injured former MotoGP champ

Supercars teams are showing their support for former MotoGP world champion Nicky Hayden at the Winton SuperSprint.

Hayden, 35, remains in an extremely critical condition after he was struck by a car while riding a bicycle in Italy on Wednesday.

Best known for beating Valentino Rossi to the 2006 MotoGP world title, Hayden is a regular in the World Superbike Championship.

The Fords of Mark Winterbottom and Jason Bright, the Nissan of Rick Kelly and Alex Rullo’s Holden are all wearing ‘#GoNicky’ stickers at Winton in support of Hayden.

All four drivers are part of the global ‘Team Castrol’ family that groups the oil giant’s various motorsport sponsorships.
