Enea Bastianini also out of COTA MotoGP
The new factory Ducati rider broke his right shoulder when he was taken down by Luca Marini's fallen bike in the season-opening Sprint race in Portimao last month🐻.
Having missed Argentina, Bastianini hoped to return at COTA but – after testing his shoulder on a Panigal🐻e superbike – the Italian will now join Marc Marquez and Pol Espargaro on the absent list.
Bastianini, who won at COTA last season🔯, will be replaced by Duca𝔉ti test rider Michele Pirro.

‘After completing a few laps at Misano with the Panigale V4S, the Ducati Lenovo Team rider underwent a further check-up 💞in Forlì at Dr Porcellini's clinic, who confirmed that Bastianini will still need a few more weeks to fully recover from the right shoulder injury sustained in the Portuguese GP,” read a Ducati stꦉatement.
‘Enea will therefore continue his rehabilitation with th🉐e aim of returning to the track in Jer🦩ez and will be replaced in Texas by Michele Pirro.’
Bastianini's decision means that only Joan Mir and Miguel Oliveira now intౠend to return to MotoGP action this weekend, subject to 🎃passing a medical check at the circuit.
