World MotoGP champion Martin undergoes surgery on hand injury
World MotoGP champion Jorge Martin underwent successful surgery on his right hand on Friday, two days after crashing on his Aprilia during pre-season testing in Malaysia, his team said.
"The operation on Jorge Martin's right hand was successfully carried out. The medical team at the Dexeus Clinic in Barcelona confirmed this positive outcome," explained Italian manufacturer Aprilia in a statement.
"The fractures in the left foot did not require surgical intervention. The duration of his unavailability will be assessed in the coming days."
The Spaniard broke his hand and foot after being thrown off his Aprilia machine at turn two of the Sepang circuit on Wednesday. He had emerged unscathed from a crash earlier in the day.
Martin now faces a race against time to be fit for the start of his title defence in the season-opening Thailand Grand Prix on March 2.
The 27-year-old, who made the move to Aprilia after winning the 2024 championship for Pramac Ducati, had completed 13 laps when he lost control of his new bike and was flipped high into the air.
The Spaniard landed hard on his left foot before his head banged onto the asphalt.
