The MotoGP season is rarely a smooth ride, and Jorge Martín is certainly experiencing that. Arriving at Mugello, the Spaniard is still feeling the effects of a nightmare weekend in Catalunya, which saw him crash five times and endure a further disappointment during private testing the following Monday. A nasty tumble at over 200 km/h resulted in ligament damage to his right foot, though thankfully no fracture.
