Fortunately, good news has arrived from Barcelona for Aleix Espargarò, where the Spanish rider underwent a surgical operation after the bad crash that occurred last week in Malaysia. The Honda test rider was engaged together with Takaaki Nakagami on the Sepang track to carry out a private test aimed at developing this season’s bike and preparing the 2027 prototype, a world championship in which the technical regulations will change. However, the 36-year-old was the victim of a serious accident, in which he suffered fractures to four vertebrae and several bruises.

The operation, which lasted just over six hours, ended positively for the Spaniard, who posted a video on his social profile in which he described how everything went the right way: “Yesterday they finally operated on me and they fixed the four vertebrae. I was in the operating room for more than six hours, where Dr. Fiol and his team did an excellent job. Now I have a lot of pain, but I am already starting to move. I hope to be able to return home in the next few days. A hug to everyone.”
