Spanish rider Ana Carrasco, who in 2018 became the first woman to win a motorcycling world title, will miss the rest of the Supersport 300 season after a crash in Portugal last week.

The 23-year-old Kawasaki rider fractured two vertebrae in the fall during testing at Estoril and will take at least three months to recover from surgery.

“Falls and injuries are part of my job as a rider. For my part, the 2020 season is over and tomorrow I start my “2021 pre-season”, she told the World Superbike website http://www.worldsbk.com.

Carrasco was fifth in the World Supersport 300 standings with three rounds remaining.

Kangana Ranaut has hit back at Jaya Bachchan's speech in the Parliament against people pointing fingers at the industry ovedr various issues. The actress-politician said in the in Rajya Sabha, "People in the entertainment industry are being flogged by social media. People who made their names in the industry have called it a gutter. I completely disagree. I hope that govt tells such people not to use this kind of language."

She slammed people who criticise the same industry which have made their careers, using the 'jis thali mein khate hain usmein chhed karte hain' analogy. "Some of the people who have got name and fame has said it is 'gutter'," she said, without naming the individuals but added they should not defame the industry. "It is the film industry that gave name and fame to many people," she said. There is a continuous process to defame the industry for the things done by a handful," she added.

Kangana tweeted in response to Jaya's statement and wrote in Hindi, "Which thali has Jaya ji and her industry given? We got one thali which had a two-minute role, item numbers and one romantic scene, that too after sleeping with the hero. I have taught feminism to this industry, decorated the thali with women-centric and patriotic films. This is my own thali, not yours Jaya ji."

Jaya Bachchan, in her defence of the industry, had also said that it employs many people in different areas and some are highest individual tax payers. The veteran actress, who is married to Bollywood legend Amitabh Bachchan, was also upset over comments on social media and the media.
