MotoGP champ Jorge Martin breaks hand, foot in preseason crash - ESPN
Reigning MotoGP champion Jorge Martin fractured his hand and foot and will require surgery after a nasty crash in preseason testing in Sepang, Malaysia, on Wednesday, casting doubts on his title defense this season.
Martin, who made the switch from Pramac Racing to Aprilia after winning the 2024 MotoGP championship, lost control of his bike in Turn 2, where a highside launched the 27-year-old into the air before he landed hard on the tarmac.
The Spaniard hit the track face-first as his helmet shattered and the session was briefly red-flagged. He was taken to the medical center by ambulance before being moved to the hospital for further checks.
