MotoGP – Jorge Lorenzo Injured in Motocross Accident

The other day we saw a video of Jorge Lorenzo training in the rain and yesterday Lorenzo told fans from his Facebook page that he was heading out to have fun training with a motocross bike near Montmelò with best friend Ricky and Superbike riders Carlos and Davide Checa, unfortunately for Lorenzo he fell and injured his right hand.

The Fiat Yamaha rider fell in slow corner (30 km/h) and fractured the base of his first metacarpal and also displaced his thumb.
Lorenzo was operated on by Doctor Augusto J.
Casanovas who made an open reduction and osteosynthesis with a small titanium plate that will require hand protection.
The Spanish rider was released from the hospital this morning and is expected to have a recovery period between four to six weeks which will definitely count him out for the upcoming Sepang test that is scheduled for February 25-26th.
Lorenzo is expected to make a full recovery in time for the final pre-season test in Qatar that takes place March 18-19.
