“It’s violating privacy and I think it’s disgusting. I had one conversation with (my PR rep) and I told him, if it was to happen to me, the only one who will say anything to anyone will be my wife. That’s something no one needs to know.” — Four-time open wheel champion Sebastien Bourdais who was bothered that the more lurid details of James Hinchcliffe’s injury were reported. Hinchcliffe, pictured, was ruled out of racing indefinitely when a broken wishbone punctured the popular Canadian driver’s left leg, causing significant blood loss, during practice at the Indy 500. Graphic details reported about where and how the wishbone slammed into his body angered Bourdais. “The fact that he got hurt by a piece of suspension, you don’t need to go into details with where he got hurt, of where it penetrated, where it went through, where it ended. Sorry. That’s just gross.”
