Jorge Martin underwent collarbone surgery in Spain and will not be replaced at Aprilia for the upcoming Indonesian MotoGP.
Jorge Martin underwent surgery for a displaced right collarbone fracture he sustained during the Japanese MotoGP Sprint race. The reigning champion faced his fourth set of injuries this year due to a ‘serious misjudgement’ during the race. He returned to Spain for surgery carried out by Dr Xavier Mir’s team at Hospital Universitari Dexeus. Recovery time will be determined based on his progress post-surgery, and he will not be replaced for the Indonesian GP as per regulations. There are uncertainties about Martin’s participation in the subsequent flyaway rounds at Phillip Island and Sepang given his injuries and current championship position. In case of an extended absence, Aprilia is likely to substitute him with Lorenzo Savadori, who had filled in for Martin earlier in the season. Martin might also face a penalty for the crash, pending a hearing with the FIM Stewards once he is available.
