Estrella Galicia Honda’s Jack Miller is fit to ride this this weekend’s Mugello MotoGP after the battering he took at Le Mans last time out.
Miller had an enormous crash at the fast turn two in practice which saw him bounce across a tyre wall before going down again in the race and forced him out of the subsequent Barcelona test.
“As soon as I got home from Le Mans I had a scan on the hand and the knee just to make sure there was nothing broken and since then I’ve been working with the physiotherapist to reduce the swelling in both,” said the Australian.
“I’ve been doing a lot of cycling this week, but I also managed to get out on the supermotard and had no problems with the hand or the knee, so it’s looking good for the weekend ahead. Mugello is one of those special circuits on the calendar and like a lot of other riders I really enjoy racing there.
“With the long straights it’s a bit of a horsepower track, but it’s also one that demands a lot of confidence in the front, and we’ve made big steps in this area since the start of the season. This means we should be able to make up in the corners and in the fast changes of direction what we lose down the straights, so I’m confident another top ten finish is a realistic goal for us this weekend.”
