Davide Brivio on timescale for injured Raul Fernandez's return
In a dramatic first day of the pre-season for Aprilia, which also saw reigning world champion Jorge Martin taken to hospital after a heavy crash, Fernandez has been declared unfit to continue after an off at Turn 9.
“Actually, it’s a little bit strange because he was calm, he was taking his time,” Brivio told MotoGP’s After the Flag.“Now he has suffered a fracture of his left hand. We’re sending him back to Barcelona and he will try to get the surgery as soon as possible.“But let’s see, we’ll listen to what the doctors say, how the surgery goes. We will make all of the exams and we will know more in the coming days what’s going on.
Martin’s condition is not yet known, but Aprilia could face the prospect of completing the Sepang test with only two of its four race riders.“No change,” he said of Ogura, who was 16th at the end of day one after 58 laps.“We say it’s kind of a schooling, what he’s doing now. There’s so many things he needs to learn, to understand, to know, to discover.
