Capirossi returns at Motegi
Loris Capirossi will return to the MotoGP grid this weekend in Japan after recovering from the finger injury that kept him out of the Aragon GP last week.
The veteran Italian sat out the Aragon GP as a precaution after injuring a finger on his right hand following a crash at Misano but the 37 year old has confirmed that he will compete at Suzuki’s home circuit at Motegi this weekend.
“My finger is at about 90%, but it is only a finger so I am totally ready for the weekend,” he claimed. “I am still having physiotherapy every day to get it better and will continue until the race, so by then it should be OK.
“I love Motegi, It is my favourite race track of the year and I have good memories from there. I have won three times and it would be amazing to challenge the front guys – especially as it is a big weekend for Suzuki. I know that it is tough out there, but anything is possible and we have got to keep believing in ourselves.”
