maybe even at the start of the season Dovizioso will also be absent because of an injury, with 13 races that were held in the 2020, of course this is become a serious problem for drivers.
As a result of a broken collarbone and had to run a surgical operation at Modena hospital. This is bad news for the Ducati team,
because of the drivers its mainstay must be injured before the inaugural MotoGP 2020 series. Most likely Andrea Dovizioso will be
absent because of the injury.
@masulum I don’t think that there’s any new update regarding his contract, hence we will have to wait for a while till an official announcement comes from Ducati. Further there’s some good news too as Ducati feels that he’ll be fit just in time for the opening race which is in three weeks from now, but it’s also worth mentioning that he’ll be rusty and he will not be able practice before the race begins due to his injury.
