I am surprised no one has brought this up yet.
It's sad to think that he won't be racing again especially when he has been doing so well.
For those that don't know, he was in a skiing accident on Dec 29th and is now in an induced coma.

showing again why I stopped doing alpine skiing after my knees got shot from Hockey. Many injuries in that sport, mainly knees

I heard about it a while ago, it's an induced coma though to help him pull through. I just hope he doesn't have memory loss after it (and that he pulls through of course). Many induced coma patients will lose some memory.
