After Carlos Tatay’s scathing video that slammed the FIM for not covering his medical insurance for his bike career-ending accident, the federation responded that they stand in solidarity with him. While the case is now in lawyers’ hands, Tatay urges everyone to take the FIM statement with a grain of salt.
Carlos Tatay, who switched from pavement bike racing to cross-country rally in an SSV due to his spinal cord injury, said the FIM refuses to provide disability insurance because his rallies are evidence that he is healthy.
After suffering a spinal cord injury in a European Moto2 crash that ended his bike racing career, Carlos Tatay will drive an SSV at the Baja Aragón with the goal of someday racing the Dakar Rally.
