The factory Ducati rider was sent fly🃏ing off his bike in t⛄he first-ever MotoGP sprint race at Portimao last weekend by Luca Marini.

He suffered a broken shoulder blade, missed the full-length Portuguese MotoGP and was soon ruled out of this weekend’s 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Argentina MotoGP.

It is now confirmed that Bastianini’s injury doesn’t require surgery, so he hopes to return to actioꦉn at COTA on April 14, the third round of t🔴he 2023 season.

Bastianini is one of four riders to be missing in Argentina for🍎 the second round.

Marc Marquez, Miguel Oliveira and Pol Espargaro are also unavailable after paying a heavy physical toll on a chaotic weജekend in Portimao.

As well as the punishing physical cost, missing riders have💜 also suffered a major setback in their quest to become 2023 champion.

Francesco Bagnaia, the defending champion, got off to a perfect start by claiming a maximum 37 points in Portimao by winning Saturday and Sunday’s races. He now goes to Argentina knowing some o🧸f his title rivals are absent and cannot gain ground on him.
