Aleix Espargaro “still not okay, but I want to give it a try”

Injured Aleix Espargaro will attempt to ride in this weekend’s German MotoGP.

The factory Aprilia star, retiring at the end of this season and newly confirmed as joining Honda as a test rider for 2025, suffered a fracture of the fifth metacarpal in his right hand during a massive Sprint accident at Assen on Saturday.

Espargaro will need to pass a medical check on Thursday in order to be declared fit to ride at Sachsenring. Meanwhile, Aprilia is without its normal replacement for Espargaro with test rider Lorenzo Savadori also injured, while competing as a wild-card, on Saturday at the Dutch Grand Prix.The Spaniard was on target for his first RS-GP podium at Sachsenring in 2022, only for his ride-height device to jam, forcing him to retire.

“Sachsenring is not one of my favourite tracks, but I'm confident that we can do a good job,” Vinales said ahead of this weekend.
