The Suzuki rider suffers a fracture in the wrist of his left hand, as reported by the official MotoGP account this Sunday afternoon, and has been declared unfit to participate in the official tests that are held this Monday in Montmeló.
Alex Rins, one of those affected in the accident caused by Takkaki Nakagami, assured after the race that “I can’t move my wrist, I can’t make any movement”, adding that he was going to go to the Dexeux Clinic for more detailed examinations, tests that detected the aforementioned fracture.
Nakagami starred in the most dangerous action of the Catalan Grand Prix , the Japanese started 12th on the grid and after a brilliant start, he reached the front positions before the first corner, but he did it with such speed that he was not able to stop the bike , losing the front gear and falling to the ground. The Honda of the LCR team violently hit Rins’s Suzuki from behind, throwing the Spanish rider into the air. Once on the ground, with inertia, Nakagami hit the rear tire of Pecco Bagnaia’s Ducati with his helmet, knocking the Italian down.
The driver who caused the action, Nakagami, was examined at the circuit’s medical center with no major injuries observed, but given the pain suffered by the 30-year-old runner born in Chiba , he was evacuated to the General Hospital of Catalonia, where he was did a thorough examination.
Finally, after performing a full body scan, no lesions were shown. But, due to the seriousness of the crash, the pilot will remain in the hospital for 24 hours and is declared unfit for Monday’s test.
In addition to Rins and Nakagami, Jorge Martín, who will undergo surgery this Monday for his right hand injury, as well as Marc Márquez, who is on indefinite leave after undergoing surgery this week in the United States, will not be in the test either.
