Valentino Rossi
One rider thankful for the postponement of the Japanese MotoGP was the Italian Valentino Rossi after suffering an injury in a motocross training accident.
The 31-year-old was sent for X-Rays after the incident, complaining of discomfort in his back following the tumble days after the Losail round of the championship.
Rossi was fortunate to have been left with just bruising to his shoulder and back but was unsure how it would affect him during the race, so the break between rounds gave him the time he needed to repair the damage caused.
This weekend the teams and riders will head to the Jerez circuit where the Fiat Yamaha rider is currently leading the MotoGP leaderboard following his win after the fall of Casey Stoner’s at the last round in Qatar.
