Moto Gp: Pedrosa unlikely for Dutch GP

Dani Pedrosa is unlikely to have recovered from surgery on a fractured collarbone in time.

MADRID:
Dani Pedrosa is unlikely to have recovered from surgery on a fractured collarbone in time for the Dutch Grand Prix at Assen on June 25, said his Repsol Honda team. The 25-year-old Spaniard had a titanium plate inserted after a fall at the French Grand Prix at Le Mans last month and needed further surgery last week after a fragment of bone came loose. “He keeps improving every day but most probably he will not be able to take part,” said Repsol Honda. Gresini Honda rider Hiroshi Aoyama would replace Pedrosa if he misses out.
