Jorge Martín has been successfully operated on in Barcelona
The rider Jorge Martín has been successfully operated on in Barcelona, so the young Moto2 World Championship contender has placed himself in the hands of Dr. Eugenio Gimeno at the Hospital Universitari Dexeus-Quirón, and is now in the recovery and rehabilitation phase.
Martín crashed on the first day of the 2019 pre-season test for the Moto2 World Championship at the Circuito de Jerez, fracturing the humerus of his left arm, as well as the third metatarsal and little finger of his right foot. Without a doubt, a difficult start for the former Moto3 World Champion in the intermediate class of the Motorcycle World Championship.
The operation lasted two hours, and afterwards, he will begin rehabilitation in about four hours. Recovery is expected to take four to six weeks, so we will see at what point of the pre-season he will be able to get back on his Moto2 and continue working to adapt to the new category and engine capacity.
Get well soon and recover well.
