The world champion of the aprilia outside two months after the accident in Qatar and the pneumothorax
An endless ordeal. The Easter Week outlines the Via Crucis by Jorge Martin who, after the double injury in the pre-stage (on February 5 in the tests in Malaysia fracture of the right hand and left foot, on the 24th in training in Lleida lesion left-hand and heel, is still blocked in bed for a bad fall. In the accident on the 14th lap of the Qatar GP on Sunday, the Spanish of Imprilia, slipped on the “tooth” curb between curves 12 and 13 and involuntarily invested at 180 km/h by Fabio Di Giannantonio, reported 11 fractures to the ribs (8 rear arches, 3 side arches), as well as bruises and a pneumothorax with the right lung that required a drainage tube for air expulsion. The pilot, who has not undergone traumatic alterations against the brain, cervical column and abdominal organs, remains hospitalized at the Hamad General Hospital in Doha, where there are also father Angel and girlfriend Maria Monfort.
Martin and the flight
–
Jorge, who had thanked “God because he could go much worse on Monday on social networks” is expected by a long healing: first the pneumothorax must be absorbed, and it could take a week, then the lung must be stabilized that must reach a high operation capacity to be able to face a flight, with plausible medical assistance. Once at home, then, Martin will face a rehabilitation that includes both lung gymnastics and physical recovery from the lesions to the ribs. Martin is a very prepared athlete, but he will not have to force the times, nor will Aprilia ask him who has the health of his pilots as absolute priority. The return to the SPARGNOL AGHISTS, 2024 MotoGP world champion, is not preventive, it will depend on its physical timing, but at best it is difficult to take place before Mugello (22 June). It would mean jumping at least 4 GP or more: inevitable sacrifice to review a sample on the track. Healthy.
