Sete Gibernau has had to withdraw from the forthcoming Qatar MotoGP test after aggravating an old shoulder injury.
A statement from Gibernau's Guinea Ecuatorial team said that the Spaniard had torn a ligament in his left shoulder during the last test at Sepang earlier this month.
Having been advised to rest by his doctors, Gibernau will sit out the three-day night session at the Losail circuit, but is confident of being fit for the final pre-season at Jerez last in March.
The 35-year-old has returned to MotoGP with the new satellite Ducati squad this year after two seasons on the sidelines. Gibernau broke into the top ten on the first day of the Sepang test, but admitted that he still needed more time to reacclimatise to the team and bike.
The Qatar test commences next Sunday.
