In a shock start to his title defence, Jorge Martin (Aprilia Racing) has been officially ruled out of the Sepang Test. The reigning Champion suffered two crashes on Wednesday and the second was a sizeable highside.
Medical checks have diagnosed him with a right hand fracture and fractures in his left foot, which rules him out of any more testing duties in Malaysia.
He has also undergone a CT scan and MRI, and both those were negative for any head injuries.
Now, he’ll head back home to Spain for surgery on his hand and foot, scheduled for later this week.
