Although three days have passed, remembering the scene of the accident of Jorge Martín during the Qatar GP continues to put the tips. Fortunately and although it is only at the beginning of its recovery and remains admitted, Martín will progress and can recover his normal activity over the weeks, or the months.
As he himself recognized through his social networks, the fall could have been much worse, so the current situation within what fits is positive. Recall that after the accident and a first exploration in the circuit, Martín was evacuated to Hamad General Hospital de Doha where he began to perform different tests, including a TAC.
When analyzing the tests, it was concluded that the pneumothorax was increasing and therefore placed an aspirative drain that, as we can see in its latest update with a “selfie” from the hospital bed still carries. That is why Jorge Martín must still remain admitted for more days, although he has not made public how many.
The positive part is that the last statement of Aprilia discards all kinds of injuries beyond the “costal fractures: eight fractures in the posterior costal arches, from the first to eighth, and three fractures in the side arches, from the seventh to the ninth. In addition to the previously diagnosed pneumothorax, a slight pleural inflammation has also been detected”.
At the moment there are no deadlines in the recovery of Jorge Martín
Just as Martín will still need before leaving the hospital, which will have to add Jorge’s return to Europe. Usually, after a pneumothorax they have to wait about two weeks before being able to fly, unless it is done on a medicalized flight.
In any case, everything will depend on the evolution of Jorge and the medical decisions and that gives way to the question of himself, for the moment, there is some scheduled date from Jorge to the competition. The answer is no and we will have to wait for the deadlines, not only of physical recovery, but also when competing, because we must not forget that for practical purposes Martín has practically not shot since the preseason tests that were held in November in the circuit of Barcelona-Catalunya.
