2021 MotoGP World Champion Fabio Quartararo suffered a bone fracture in his left hand when he crashed while riding motocross on Sunday, December 11.

Quartararo reported the incident himself via social media, stating, “Yesterday I had a crash during my motocross training and I suffer a little fracture on my left hand. No surgery needed, time to recover.”

With MotoGP currently in the holiday season testing moratorium, Quartararo’s next on-track appearance isn’t until the official MotoGP pre-season test at Sepang February 10-12, 2023.
