Last year▨’s Phillip Island winne🐼r for Suzuki, Rins was the fastest Honda rider, in 12th, on Friday, when he also walked away from an accident.

The pain is not thought to be related to that spill, with Rins previously speꦑaking of nerve issues during his recovery from the fract𝔍ured tibia and fibula suffered at Mugello in May.

Rins will now undergo scans to try and determine the 🃏source of his ongoing leg pain.

The L꧑CR rider, winner at COTA this year, completed his firs💖t grand prix since the accident in 14th place at Mandalika last weekend.

The Spaniard’s withdraw from Phillip Island means that, after 16 rounds, Moto♋GP ꦿstill hasn’t had a single race featuring the full 22-rider line-up.

At least one rider had been sidel🔯ined by injury since Pol Espargaro’s accident in practice for the Portimao season opener.

Rins is switching to the Monster Yamaha team next season and is due to make his M1 debut at next month’s Valencia post-ဣseason test.

Peter has been in the paddock for 20 years and has seen Valentino Rossi come and go. He is at the forefront ofღ the Suzuki exit story and Marc Marquez’s injury issues.
