The operation, with which doctors will repair the fractures suffered by Jorge Martin in a violent fall in training for the Portuguese Grand Prix, has been postponed, and so is the performance of the newcomer at the race in Jerez, two weeks later.

The Pramac racer fell badly in the 7th corner during the third free practice, suffering several fractures of his right arm and ankle.

The injured Spaniard was taken to a hospital in Barcelona, ​​where he was supposed to undergo surgery today, but it was postponed because he also suffered a severe blow to the head in the fall.

A representative of the Pramac team confirmed that Martin will almost certainly not take part in the race in Jerez. “The most important thing is for Jorge to heal,” he said. "First he will have an operation, and then we will see how the recovery will go. If necessary, we will also wait until Le Mans with his return. We won’t risk anything and rush because it’s his home race. He will hardly be able to perform in Jerez. I can say with almost certainty that he will not be at the Spanish GP. Still, I can't say 100 percent. "
