Di Giannantonio declared unfit for the Austrian GP

The Italian will miss the remainder of the Austria GP after crash in Practice on Friday

Fabio Di Giannantonio (Pertamina Enduro VR46 Racing Team) has been declared unfit to race at the Motorrad Grand Prix von Österreich after a crash in Friday afternoon’s Practice session. The #49 crashed at Turn 8 with 35 minutes remaining and took no further part in Friday’s track action.

After his crash, the Italian was taken to the circuit medical centre for a check-up and then local hospital after having been diagnosed with a dislocated left shoulder.

Speaking to motogp.com, Team Manager, Pablo Nieto said: "He had a big crash and unfortunately he is not fit for the race because the shoulder went out and he has to get more checks. So we think it is more important to make the next race, which should be ok, but he must come home and get some checks in the hospital."
