Following medical checks today at Dexeus Hospital in Barcelona, Aleix Espargaró was diagnosed with a heel fracture in his right foot. The Spanish rider, the victim of a scary high-side during the last free practice session at Silverstone, then stoically took to the track for both qualifying and Sunday's race.
The injury does not involve surgical treatment, Aleix has been prescribed 7 days of absolute rest during which he will have to use crutches to avoid loading the injured foot. The goal is to present himself at the next race weekend (Aug. 19-21, Austria) in the best physical condition.
