On Thursday, under the watchful eyes of the Qatar circuit medics, Morbidelli conquered his medical test, securing the coveted pass to storm back into the MotoGP World Championship. But that's not all – this season marks a pivotal moment in Morbidelli's career as he bids farewell to Yamaha and embraces the Ducati challenge with open arms.
The road to recovery had its pit stops, with a crucial MRI scan on March 2nd delivering "favourable results." With the all-clear from the medical crew, Morbidelli hopped on a plane to Qatar, determined to make a triumphant return to the grid.
As the Qatar GP kicks off on Friday afternoon, marking the 75th World Championship season, anticipation is at an all-time high. A full grid promises fierce battles and jaw-dropping manoeuvres, and with Morbidelli back in the saddle, the excitement is reaching fever pitch.
