Jorge Martin shaken after FP1 crash in Barcelona

Martin, who is only returning this year from a series of brutal injuries in 2025, has made a great start to the season so far, picking up consistent podiums and multiple sprint victories before winning his first Sunday race for Aprilia in Le Mans last weekend.

'The Martinator' started the session well and was putting in consistently fast lap times, topping the timing charts ahead of teammate and title rival Marco Bezzecchi. However, following the crash, Martin was forced to withdraw from the remainder of the session.

What was most concerning about the crash, on top of the way Martin was seen walking unsteadily away from the barriers in a manner which suggested he might have sustained a concussion, was the fact that he repeatedly held onto his left arm and appeared to have lost full mobility.
