Acosta Back on Track: Tech3 Confirms No Fracture, Thailand Checkup Awaits
It was a scary moment for Augusto Fernandez, but thankfully, it looks like the Tech3 rider will be back in action soon. Fernandez went down hard in the Dutch GP, with a nasty fall at Turn 14. The initial diagnosis? Possible fractured ribs.
Thankfully, the news from Tech3 is good. A follow-up check confirmed that the Spanish rider escaped a fracture. "Augusto Fernandez has been declared fit to race," the team announced, "and he will undergo further checks at the Chang International Circuit to ensure he’s fully recovered for the Thailand GP."
The recovery process has been swift, but Fernandez is still being cautious. This wasn't just a little tumble, folks. He took a hard hit, and the potential for a serious injury was real. But it looks like the rider dodged a bullet, and he'll be back in the saddle, looking to make up for lost time.
Fernandez is known for his aggressive riding style, which often leads to some thrilling moments on the track. His crash in the Netherlands was a reminder of the risks inherent in MotoGP, but also of the riders' incredible resilience.
Now, the focus shifts to Thailand. The Chang International Circuit is a challenging track, and Fernandez will need to be at his best to perform well. But with the all-clear from the doctors, he'll have a chance to show what he's made of.
It's a relief to hear that Fernandez is on the mend. This crash could have been much worse, and we're thankful for the positive outcome. Let's hope for a safe and successful race in Thailand.
