Jorge Martin has officially arrived in Malaysia ahead of the upcoming grand prix weekend, though his actual participation on track remains shrouded in serious doubt.
The Spanish contender suffered a fractured right radius during a high-speed crash in the sprint race at Phillip Island, forcing him into an immediate and grueling recovery phase.
Despite making the trip to the Sepang International Circuit, it remains highly uncertain whether he can physically manage to ride his prototype machine just days after surgery.
“Ik onderga momenteel alle noodzakelijke behandelingen om van mijn blessure te herstellen en in een zo goed mogelijke conditie op het Sepang International Circuit aan te komen. Het is onmogelijk om op dit moment voorspellingen te doen. We moeten de situatie van dag tot dag beoordelen,” Martin stated regarding his current fitness status.
The layout of the Malaysian venue features demanding heavy braking zones that put immense stress on a rider's upper limbs, complicating potential comeback plans for the Aprilia Racing squad.
Renowned Italian motorsport physician Claudio Costa has publicly expressed skepticism regarding an immediate return to the saddle of the Aprilia RS-GP this weekend.
“Het is bijna onmogelijk om Martin in Maleisie aan de start te zien staan. Een week later in Qatar kan het onmogelijke misschien mogelijk worden,” Costa noted on the timeline of the recovery.
All eyes will now turn to the official medical evaluation scheduled for Thursday, where circuit doctors will decide if the rider is fit enough to partake in Friday's opening practice sessions.
