Joan Mir (Repsol Honda Team) has withdrawn from the Gran Premio Red Bull di San Marino e della Riviera di Rimini, under the instruction of Medical Staff, led by Dr Charte. The #36 has suffered from intense gastroenteritis throughout the weekend, initially sitting out on Friday before withdrawing from the San Marino Grand Prix.
The 2020 World Champion showed some signs of improvement overnight, but his condition worsened again on Saturday morning. Mir's target is to return to track on Monday for the important Misano MotoGP™ Official Test.
Alberto Puig, Team Manager of the Repsol Honda Team, said: "Yesterday in the afternoon he started to feel really well. He went out of the motorhome, he went for a walk, and the colour of his face came back to normal because before it was white. He was feeling really good, he could even have supper. He went to sleep, and everything was ok in the night but this morning after he woke up, he had breakfast and then again threw up, vomited, he had a white face and then we went to the doctor. Looks like his level of stamina is very low again and Dr Charte strongly recommended not to go. He will not go for this weekend's race, and our target now is on Monday's Test because that's all he can do. He'll try to rest as much as possible for Monday, and we'll see if he can go on Monday."
