The Impact and the Injuries of Andrea Dovizioso
Andrea underwent a CT scan at the hospital, which fortunately yielded negative results. This means there were no significant head or brain injuries. However, the scan did reveal a fracture of the right clavicle.
The report regarding his wrists is still awaited, so we’ll need to stay tuned for updates on that front.
Notably, this accident occurred in the same region where Andrea previously fractured his collarbone during the Regional Championship race in Faenza back in June 2020. Fortunately, he does not appear to have sustained serious injuries this time. Let’s hope for a speedy recovery and wish him all the best for his upcoming series.
