Reale Avintia Racing– Test MotoGP – Circuit Barcelona-Catalunya

Reale Avintia Racing rider, Tito Rabat, suffered a big crash this morning during MotoGP testing session at Barcelona-Catalunya Circuit. It was only the third exit for the 2014 Moto2 World Champion when he lost control of his Ducati in the last corner of the Catalan circuit. It was a big tumble. The bike was on fire and the rider immediately felt a bog pain on his left arm.

After the first medical checks at the circuit medical centre, Tito Rabat was transferred by ambulance to Quiron Dexeus Hospital for further examinations carried out by Dr. Xavier Mir’s team.

He has had an MRI and a 3D CT Scan of the left elbow and the following injuries have been diagnosed:

Muscle rupture grade 3 of fingers deep flexor.

Muscle rupture grade 2 of the carpal ulnar flexor.

Contusion in the ulnar nerve.

Bone edema in the epitroclea or olecranon.

He will undergo more tests tomorrow to decide the treatment to be followed and the recovery time.

Rabat has already informed team members that he wants to be in Mugello within nine days. Dr. Mir will decide if it is feasible.
