MotoGP: Bad news: Angel Nieto's condition worsens

The press conference with Pablo Nieto, Angel's son, set to take place this afternoon at Brno, has been cancelled.

The SKY-VR46 team manager has remained in Spain, in Ibiza, following a worsening in the condition of the 12+1 time champion.
The Policlínica Nuestra Senora del Rosario has issued some bad news: while gradually waking Angel Nieto from his coma, he has suffered an unexpected cerebral edema, which means his condition is now critical.

The 70-year old Spaniard was hit by a vehicle on 26 July while riding a quad.
