168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Franco Morbidelli has travelled to Qatar but is not yet assured of being able to race in the MotoGP season-opener due to injury.
An MRI scan on March 2 cleared Morbidelli to fly to Qat𒁏ar.

"I am eager to try the bike, to return to the dynamics of the r𓆉aces, and to get to know the ꦗpeople of my new team better.
"This year represents a significant change in my career, and although this incident was unfortunate, it is now in the past, and I want to 🌱look forward.
"I thank the doctors who have been monit♋oring me, the people who have supported me during these weeks, and a special thanks to Prima Pramac Racing for their supp🍷ort."
Morbidelli will make his debut a♈s a Pramac Ducati rider✃ if he is cleared to race.
He꧙ made the switch from Yamaha but, due to injury, has not had a preseason.
Before MotoGP testing, Morbidelli crashed a Panigale V4 ♚on a WorldSBK test day in Portimao.
He was knocked unconscious and doctors told him that it would “pretty dangerous to h🧸it the head again, right now” before preseason testing.
Morbidelli has since said: “It's an injury that almost doesn't feel like an injury because physically I'm 🃏pretty good.
“You need to take your time and keep respect♏ing what the doctors say, because it's an injury that needs 🔯to be respected.”
Morbidelli will ride the🃏 GP24 this season with Pramac as Jorge Martin’s teammate.
