Bezzecchi Withdraws From German GP in Another Blow to MotoGP Title Hopes

Aprilia said the Italian rider will undergo surgery in Italy after X-rays revealed a complete, displaced left clavicle fracture.

  • On Saturday, Aprilia Racing rider Marco Bezzecchi crashed at Turn 7 during German Grand Prix qualifying, suffering a complete and displaced left clavicle fracture that forces his withdrawal from the weekend's race.
  • Following his transfer to the medical centre, MotoGP Medical Director Dr. Angel Charte supervised X-ray examinations that confirmed the displaced collarbone fracture, with Bezzecchi planning to return to Italy for surgery.
  • The Italian was thrown over his bike's handlebars, rolling through gravel before marshals arrived, while Aprilia boss Massimo Rivola was seen inquiring about his rider's condition shortly after the incident.
  • Bezzecchi arrived at the Sachsenring on Thursday not fully fit, continuing a difficult season that previously saw him miss the Czech round and suffer crashes in the Dutch and Hungary events.
  • This incident marks the latest setback for Bezzecchi, who had already lost the championship lead at Assen, and he now faces recovery time ahead of the next MotoGP round at Silverstone.
