Suzuki will not replace Mir at the San Marino Grand Prix

Joan Mir suffered a terrifying fall on the first lap of the MotoGP race at the Austrian Grand Prix , and after carrying out tests on Monday and Tuesday, the doctors detected “bone and ligament damage to his right ankle that will force the rider to rest for at least the next 15 days,” Suzuki said. An injury that will prevent him from taking part in the next stop in the championship, the San Marino Grand Prix , and in the Misano tests, which will take place on the following Tuesday and Wednesday, and which for the Japanese team are completely inconsequential since it will close the blind at the end of the season.

Regulations in hand, if a driver is diagnosed with an injury that prevents him from racing 10 days before the dispute of a grand prix, the team is obliged to present a replacement rider.

“In the next few days Suzuki and Dorna will evaluate the best solution for Misano,” Suzuki reported in the same note in which the injury and withdrawal of the 2020 world champion was reported.

However, Mir will not be replaced in San Marino, given that the team in the big S does not currently have any drivers who can do so.

The team’s test driver, Frenchman Sylvain Guintoli , was injured in early August while preparing for the Suzuka 8 Hours, and remains sidelined. The last alternative for Suzuki would be to bring the factory tester, Takuya Tsuda , from Japan, but this possibility has been ruled out, since the Japanese, who has only contested one grand prix in his entire career, at Jerez 2017, where he finished last to more than a minute and a half behind the winner, Dani Pedrosa, has never ridden at Misano, he doesn’t know the circuit and that could put the safety of the rest of the riders at risk.

Suzuki, who will face the Italian event alone with Alex Rins, trusts that Mir will recover before the Aragón Grand Prix , which takes place in 25 days, from September 16 to 18, although the pilot’s priority, right now, is recover fully. The Spaniard will ride next season with Honda in the official Repsol team, and after Suzuki was scared in the World Championship, the greatest incentive for Mir is to arrive at the end of the season in full power to be able to test the RC213V in the Valencia test. next November 8.
