Maria Costello fundraiser set up as extent of injuries revealed after Isle of Man TT crash
A GoFundMe campaign has been created to assist Maria Costello, who sustained severe injuries in an Isle of Man TT crash during Sidecar qualifying recently. The experienced TT racer was involved in a crash on the first night of qualifying and was transported to a hospital in Liverpool for treatment. Although her condition was described as serious but stable by the TT, further details have not been provided. The GoFundMe initiative aims to raise £200,000 to support her recovery and care, as her injuries include paralysis from the T5/T6 vertebrae down, a broken back, multiple broken ribs, a Grade 4 large liver laceration, and other severe injuries. While the possibility of walking again exists, the crash is anticipated to have a long-term impact on her life. Maria is determined to focus on recovery and rehabilitation, which will require substantial financial support due to the extensive medical needs and lifestyle adjustments she will face.
