Franco Morbidelli suffered a heavy fall while training in Portimão at the end of January. Although he did not suffer any fractures, the exams revealed a small blood clot in the brain, so he had to miss the pre-season tests.
The Qatar GP is the first of the championship, from March 8th to 10th. At this time, the Prima Pramac rider does not yet have confirmed participation, as he told the press on Wednesday:
– I have to wait. Very, very likely I will do it. Medicine says that after an injury like this you have to wait at least a month, no less – away from dangerous sports and let’s say living in a certain way for a month. Let’s see if according to the doctors I have recovered as much as I should have in a month.
