A severe setback has struck Fermin Aldeguer during the Indonesian Grand Prix weekend. The Spanish rider was forced into an early retirement following a heavy crash in the opening stages of the race at the Mandalika circuit, resulting in a significant injury to his right hand.
Following immediate medical evaluations at the track, it was confirmed that the young talent suffered a fracture at the base of the first metacarpal in his right hand. Because this specific area is absolutely vital for managing the throttle and brake levers, any continuation in the Asian tour was immediately ruled out by medical staff.
According to Motosan.es, due to the nature of the bone damage, medical personnel and the team agreed that immediate surgical intervention is the only viable path to ensure proper bone healing. The rider will fly back to Spain tonight and head straight to Barcelona for the upcoming operation.
The surgical procedure aims to properly fix the base of the first metacarpal to accelerate rehabilitation timelines amid a heavily congested end-of-year racing calendar. Every effort is being made to ensure a safe and steady recovery process for the remainder of the season.
This upcoming trip to the operating room marks yet another painful chapter in a 2026 season heavily plagued by physical ailments. Earlier in the year, a pre-season femur fracture and a nasty crash at Assen resulting in a T7 vertebra fracture already forced him to miss crucial rounds, halting a campaign filled with undeniable flashes of raw speed and talent.
