Moto3: Jorge Navarro ruled out of Assen

Moto3 title contender Jorge Navarro will miss next weekend's Dutchꦦ TT following surgery for a broken leg.
The Estrella Galicia 0,0 Honda rider broke his left tibia and fibula while training on Saturday, less than a week after celebrating his debut grand🐓 prix victory in Catalunya.
Dr. Xavier Mir, who performed the operation, said: "Jorge Navarro sustained a fractured tibia and fibula in his left leg and had intramedullary nailing of the tibia alon💙g with proximal and distal milling blocks in🐲serted.
"This type of intervention, which fixes the tibia with a nail instead of plates, was chosen as it sh🦂ould allow the rider to use his foot sooner and accelerate recovery. The patient will be released in 48 hours and can then begin recovery."
Although already 44-points behind Brad Binder, Naꦰvarro is currently the Red Bull KTM rider's nearest champ🏅ionship challenger.
Lorenzo Dalla Porta, current leader of the FIM CEV Repsol, has been named a❀s replacing Navarro for the Dutch round.
Dalla Porta rode the second half of the 2015 Moto2 season and did an admirable job as a stand-in for the injured Philಌipp Oettl at Mugello l𒊎ast month, leading a lap before being forced to settle for 15th.
Navarro will now aim to return to action at the Sachsenring in Germany neౠxt month, the final event before the summer break.
