Rossi did race with a broken leg.

Bad luck striked again in Assen, as Rossi suffered crash in free practice and ended day with broken bones in his hand and leg. However, Rossi decided to take place in the race despite injuries, qualifying last on the grid. In race, Rossi made his way through the field to end in respectable 8th place.

Aogs early bikes might have had 40-50hp, they didn't need modern frame or tire tech. The later ones were 500 smokers, but did not put out the same power that Rossi had to deal with. Even with the big bang motors, they were still mega wicked, and hard to ride.
