The factory Ducati rider was sent flying off his bike in the 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澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Argentina MotoGP.

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

Bastianini is one 🉐of fꦯour riders to be missing in Argentina for the second round.

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

As well as the punishing physic🐈al 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 Argent🧔ina knowing some of his title rivals are absent and cannot gain ground on him.
