Lorenzo undergoes successful surgery

Five-time World Champion operated on, may be fit for Sepang

Jorge Lorenzo (Ducati Team) has undergone successful surgery on his left wrist, with the Spaniard now back at home to Lugano and on the road to recovery. Whether he is fit for Sepang will depend on the evolution of that recovery.

What the five-time World Champion has undergone is an operation to treat a rupture on the dorsal side of his left scapholunate ligament. Keyhole surgery was undertaken on his wrist and he was treated with a heat suture and had platelet-rich plasma placed on the rupture. Now we just hope to see him back on the bike and fighting fit as soon as possible!
