He was flown back to his native Switzerland, where it was confirmed he had sustained multiple rib fractures and an injury to the right shoulder. He will undergo surgery today for a stabilisation procedure.

 

A full recovery timeline will be determined after the planned surgery, but the Swiss rider will sit out Round 8 of the Superbike World Championship in Magny Cours next weekend.
