Hilperton's Paula Walker has expressed her concern for her two Great Britain team-mates that were hospitalised after a serious crash during training in Germany.

British Bobsleigh confirmed this afternoon that two athletes had been seriously injured in a crash on the Winterberg Track, which begins hosting the British Bobsleigh Championships tomorrow.

25-year-old womens GB1 pilot Walker, who is currently in Canada preparing for the first World Cup race of the season in Igls, Austria, hinted that Fiona Harrison and Serita Shone could be the injured duo, after posting: "Hoping @FionaHarrisonGB and@SeritaShone are ok!" on social-netorking site Twitter at around 8pm yesterday night.

British Bobsleigh performance director Gary Anderson is reportedly currently travelling to Germany.
