Willie Wark came off Brian Richard's Manx at Gedinne in the last race last Sunday. Before the accident he had had a couple of second places and was challenging for the lead when he fell off.
He has broken vertebrae, broken ribs and a head injury. At present he is in an induced coma, and doctors in the University Hospital in Liege are hopeful of a good recovery.

Is that the same Bill Wark thats was at the Manx helping Anita B if so all the best Bill get well soon in our thoughts Irish Ago.......

That's him, Ago. You'll know him from the Pre-TT Classic too, I think.

Get well ASAP mate

Ok, Bill Wark has had an operation to vertebrae yesterday and has been moving his legs. I believe that the medical staff were to try bring him round today and see how his condition is. I will pop back when I hear any more news.
Come on Bill! We've got some wine that needs finishing

Willie is still poorly in hospital in Liege, but is semi-conscious now, and seems to be recognising people. Get well soon, Willie, we need some good news!!

Willie is making steady progress and there is word he may be flown back to Scotland soon. Don't know where, or if he'll be immediately up to visitors.

Just to let everyone know that Billy is now back in Scotland. He was flown back today and is in the Intensive Care Unit in Dumfries Royal Infirmary. He is fully conscious and communicating well. Fingers crossed he is going to make full recovery.

Here's the results from that day. He was going really well.

Billy is making steady progress and he has now been moved to rehabilitation Ward 14 in Dumfries Hospital.

Cheers for the update on Bill , Anita let him know i wish him a speedy recovery and hope to catch up in the New Year all the best Irish Ago

Billy has made huge progress this week - although he is still very weak, he's been up on his feet and walking (much further than the Physio wanted him too!) He's eating & talking well, so hopefully he'll be allowed to leave hospital in the next few weeks. He's very appreciative of everyone's well wishes and can't wait to be fit and back to normal. Shaun - I told him about your :shock: HUGE :shock: progress :wink: :wink: and we both had a bit of a giggle - glad everythings working ok!

Willie was getting home today. Takes a lot to kill off a Scotsman!

How nice to get some more good news!
Well done that man, and keep it up!

Very glad to hear about Willie.It is always great when any racer recovers after a bad get off.Best of luck to him

Any news how Billy Wark is now? I think he got home and I don't know where that is.

Billy is home in Scotland, and I am told he is "up and about". I've passed on the best wishes of the TTwebsite crowd.

Hi Bill wishing you all the best from the Isle of Man from all at Irish Ago Racing........

Gaun yersel' Willy! Stick in and get well soon.
