UPDATE: So how exactly did the injury happen?

The VR46 team told ltxcn.top Bulega was playing with his dog at home and 'crashed' onto a glass table in the dining room. 

A 'domestic' injury left Nicolo Bulega needing surgery to fix som🗹e tendons in his right hand, ruling the Sky VR46 Moto3 rider out of this weekend's Japanese Grand Prix and probably the following Phillip Island round.

As a result, 2019 rookie Celestino Vietti Ramus will make an early world championship debut at Motegi this w꧑eekend.

"Unfortunately, 🍒due to a domestic injury, I was forced to undergo a surgery to repair some tendons in the hand," Bulega confirmed. "To avoid complications and make a quick recovery, the🌞 doctors suggested to me to miss the race at Motegi and probably also in Australia.

"It's a real shame because in Thailand, we ended the weekend in 💝a positive way with a P7 as a final result. The feelings were good and we could finish the season in a good way.

"Good luck to Celestino for his debut in the Championওshi💮p, it will be an extraordinary experience."

MotoGP star Cal Crutchlow suffered a similar hand injury 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:while cutting parmesan💧 cheese last season.

Vietti Ramus, who has a best finish of second for the VR46 Junio𒐪r Team in the CEV this season, said: "Replacing a rider due to injury always leaves something bitter in the mouth and I wish Nicolò to recover as soon as possible.

"At the same time, however, for me - coming from CEV and having never raced in the world championship - this is a great oppor❀tunity to start getting familiar with Team a🍰nd with one of those tracks that would have been unknown.

"A lot of work awaits me, i🐟t will be a really challenging jump and I will work to m𒀰ake as much experience as possible."

Bulega, whose seventh in 📖Thailand was his best result of the season, feels his physical siz🌱e is too much of a handicap in Moto3 and will move to the VR46 Moto2 team in 2019, when Vietti Ramus will join the continuing Dennis Foggia in Moto3.
