Maria Costello says the last four weeks have been the biggest challenge of her life
A TT racer injured during Sidecar qualifying at this year's event says the last four weeks have been the biggest challenge of her life.
Maria Costello sustained a number of serious injuries in the incident at Brandish during practice week.
In a post on social media, Maria says she's lucky to be here, and that the support she's received since the incident means everything.
She's thanked the staff at Noble's and those who've treated her since she was transferred to the UK.
A fundraiser set up to help her with her recovery and the lifelong injuries she sustained has so far raised more than £265,000.
