My shoulder conditions
Hi guys!
Unfortunately my shoulder conditions before Australia were true…
Races went as you know, but the problem to my shoulder once I was on the bike was worst than I thought…
In addiction to that I also fell on it and things went from bad to worse, or maybe the situation just got worse to the point of making me stop. The 10th March – Indian GP- was very close and we can say that all these things that happened were the alarm bell that we couldn’t ignore.

At the gym I worked out quite normally, sometimes I had some strange painful stitch, but we [...]

Finnaly, we start again!
For those who don’t belong to the motorbike world, this would seem like a very long holiday… but actually, it isn’t like that! In very truth, I have to say that I spent lots of winters trying to heal injuries that occurred during the season, sometimes through surgical interventions and endless rehabilitations and sometimes just [...]
