GP Jerez Moto3 QP – and Lorenzo Petrarca his teammate showed some improvement this Spanish weekend Stefano Valtulini he will be forced to miss the race.
The decision comes by mutual agreement with the Team and is due to the left shoulder injury suffered in Austin.

“Compared to yesterday – he explained Lorenzo Petrarca – we managed to improve further and I feel the bike is more and more mine. Overall I am satisfied with the balance found, this should allow us to aim for an attacking race and recover further positions. It's just a shame that we weren't able to make the most of a good lap in qualifying, but with the direction we've taken I'm convinced we can do it again tomorrow."

“I feel sorry for the whole team – he said Stefano Valtulini – but I am forced to give up the continuation of the Jerez weekend. By mutual agreement we made the decision not to risk and not put a strain on the injured left shoulder during qualifying in Austin. This choice was made following a consultation with the doctors and, we are convinced, it was the right one. I took part in the first two free practice sessions, but on the bike I wasn't able to ride as I like and I didn't have enough strength to express myself at my best. From now on to the next two weeks I will continue the rehabilitation therapy with daily physiotherapy sessions in order to be in the best physical condition for the next appointments on the calendar. I would like to thank the whole team for the support on and off the track these days, the Mobile Clinic and the doctors for their professionalism and their essential contribution to making the most appropriate decision in this difficult moment."
