Dani Pedrosa has undergone surgery for the broken c🔯ollarbone sustained in Friday practice for the Jap🔥anese MotoGP at Motegi.

T🌄he Repsol Honda star was fired from his RC213V in a Monster highside at the end of FP2 and✅ immediately knew his collarbone was broken. X-rays later confirmed it was completely broken into four pieces, plus damage to the right fibula.

Pedrosa flew back to Barcelo♛na, where surgery took pl🦂ace on Saturday evening.

Doctors Victor Marlet and Sergi Barrera, overseeing the p♛rocedure, explained: "Through the use of a CAT scan, it was confirmed that patient Dani Pedrosa had suffered a comminuted fracture consisting of four fragments, with significant shortening of𒅌 the middle third of the right clavicle.

"The scan also🀅 detected a supcapital fracture of the right fibula with no displacement, only requiring ♏immobilisation.

"A surgical operation 📖was carried out on the right clavicle, involving its open reduction and fixation with a titanium plate. The result of the operation was satisfactory, and Dani Pedrosa will undergo an evaluation of his progress over the coming days."

The same right collarbone was previously broken in 2011, when a titanium plate was also🐻 needed.

Motegi is the worst event of the season to be injured at, being the first of three raꦡces in three weekends.
