125cc rider Randy Krummenacher is on the road to recovery after undergoing emergency spleen surgery in Jerez, and could return to action for the fourth round of the World Championship in just over a month´s time.

Harold Bartol, Krummenacher´s Team Manager in the Red Bull KTM lower cylinder class outfit, gave an update on his young rider´s condition after the Gran Premio bwin.com de España.

`Randy is more or less fine now. Tomorrow (Monday) he will be transferred to another hospital in Switzerland, and could be back racing again as soon as China,´ he commented when asked about the teenager´s recent operation, and also refuted suggestions that the team would exercise an option to field a replacement rider in Portugal.

`We won´t be getting a substitute rider in for Portugal; at this moment in time we prefer to develop the bike a bit more and come back stronger with Randy.´
