The 19-time Isle of Man TT winner was hurt in a crash during last weekend’s Donegal International Rally, which was hit by tragedy following the death of three-time winner Manus Kelly.
A statement issued by Dunlop’s MD Racing team said he will be out of action for up to two weeks as a result.
The statement read: ‘Michael suffered serious injuries which will leave him out of action for two weeks.
‘A further update of his condition will be made in the near future’.
