I don’t know how many bruised butts you’ve seen in your lifetime, but I’m willing to bet you’ve never seen one as bad as Randy de Puniet’s.
The French superbike racer took a spill during a recent competition and, well, things didn’t really end well for him.
Medical for @RandydePuniet14 better than expected. Not broken but a MASSIVE haematoma on his lower back/ass, v painful. No pics, sorry girls

The whole “no pics” promise from the team’s president didn’t stick. It’s not a pleasant image, but here you go:
Think you've had a bruised butt? This plus broken ribs, still p7 race 2. Tough lad… @RandydePuniet14 pic.twitter.com/UhTKgb6mQy

Have fun sitting down on that!
To help you erase that image from your head, here are some lovely photos of de Puniet’s goddess of a wife, model Lauren Vickers.
