Martin's Fight to Get Fit for Malaysian GP with MotoGP Title at Stake
Aprilia is planning a cautious recovery as scans confirmed only one non-displaced wrist fracture and Martin aims to race again next weekend.
- Jorge Martin aims for a return at next weekend's Malaysian Grand Prix after fracturing his wrist in Saturday's high-speed crash at Phillip Island during a fierce duel with Marc Marquez.

- A CT scan confirmed a single non-displaced fracture of the radius, ruling out initial fears of a second break to the ulna that doctors initially suspected at the circuit.
- Aprilia team manager Paolo Bonora confirmed surgery is unlikely, as Martin has arrived in Kuala Lumpur to begin an intensive four-day recovery protocol devised by physiotherapist Aitor Tomas.
- With four rounds remaining, Marquez holds a 10-point advantage over Martin, while teammate Marco Bezzecchi sits 50 points behind in third place in the championship standings.
