When we remember the terrible accident suffered by Lorenzo Baldassarri during testing for the Dutch Grand Prix, we say he did well with only a concussion and a broken right ankle. But this will still have to be operated on, which means that the Forward Racing driver will not be able to hold his position this weekend at the Sachsenring.
However, Luca marini will not do the German Grand Prix alone. He will have at his side a 21-year-old compatriot called Federico Fuligny. Does this mean anything to you? Normal, he is the one who replaced Danny Kent at the start during the Spanish Grand Prix. When the Englishman hastily left the ship Suter.
This will therefore not be the first experience of Soots at this level. Before Jerez this season, he already had seven Grands Prix under his belt, including the 2016 finale in Valencia. His best performance was an eighteenth position at Misano. He has a good knowledge of the Suter chassis to use it during these favorite races which make up the Moto2 European Championship calendar. But it is indeed a Kalex that he will drive on the Sachsenring.
As for Baldassarri, he will spend his vacation taking care of his convalescence to be back as quickly as possible in the turbulent Moto2 peloton.
