Potentially thrown his title chance down the road. Possibly broken wrist in FP1 after the summer break with 3 races in quick succession. If it wasn't for bad luck he'd have no luck. |

Fractured left hand. Out of this weekend and straight home for an op. Hopefully back for next week. |

this sucks. I wanted to see him and Bezzecchi battle until the end for this title. I wish Jorge a speedy and healthy recovery |

According to BT Sports it’s one of the forearm bones close to where it meets his wrist and should be able to be pinned or plated. Hopefully he’ll be back for Austria.

It's always bad to hear that from any rider but when someone is fighting for the championship, that sucks even more. To make that bad luck higher next round is just in a week Let's see if Bezzecchi is able to take maximum number of points on Sunday |

After watching the get off, it looks as if he was either wrist-pinned under the clip on or held on too long. Hard luck either way.

Absolute balls of steel. Great qualifying considering how much pain he must be in. Be difficult to sustain that for race distance though

1 point between Martin and Bezzecchi now. Let's hope none of the two will ever crash again this season. I definitely lean on Bezzecchi's side but all I really want is a fair title battle ![]() |
