Takaaki Nakagami completes the sprint in Mugello
Autodromo Internazionale del MugelloLCR Honda IDEMITSU rider Takaaki Nakagami has finished 17th on the Sprint at Mugello after a demanding race.
Starting from the 16th spot of the grid, Nakagami tried to recover positions despite the track and weather conditions being quite unstable. With some bad luck and struggling to overtake rivals, Takaaki tried his best to make the most of the race, but he finally crossed the line 17th.
The LCR rider Alex Rins has suffered a fracture to his tibia and fibula today at the Sprint. The rider will undergo a first surgery this evening at the Careggi University Hospital (Florence), where doctors will attach an external fixator to stabilize his right leg and reduce swelling. He will remain under observation, and once cleared, he will return to Spain to undergo a final surgery.
Today, I’ve struggled to have the best feeling; I couldn’t push the way I wanted. We need to look at the data because tomorrow it’s going to be a demanding race. We’ll give our best, as always
