Francesco Bagnaia successfully underwent surgery this morning to fix the double fracture of the fourth and fifth metatarsal bones in his right foot, sustained following a highside crash in the early stages of last Saturday’s Qatar GP Sprint. The medical team led by Dr. Luigi Milano, at the Humanitas Cellini Clinic in Turin, successfully secured a plate to the fourth metatarsal of the right foot. The Ducati Lenovo Team rider will begin his rehabilitation as soon as possible. His recovery progress over the coming days will determine the exact timeline for his return to competition. |
