Dani Pedrosa to ride in Qatar GP

After speculation whether Dani Pedrosa would be able to participate in the first GP of the season after his surgery at the begining of March, Pedrosa has now personally confirmed on his blog on the official Repsol website, that he will ride his Repsol Honda at the MotoGP in Qatar this weekend.

Here’s what the Spanish rider had to say:“I am pleased that I can return to racing this weekend, but I have to tell you that I am not 100% fit, so I am well aware that I will be at a disadvantage in Qatar.
Doctor Ferreira & Doctor Mir have done some great work on my knee and arm, but the time we had for my recovery, especially for my knee, was quite short.
Even though I have made good use of the last two weeks and we have made good progress, I am aware that in Qatar I will only be able to win a few points, but points which at the end of the season could be very valuable.
The overriding reason being not to begin the second race of the season with a gap of 25 points to make up on my rivals.
