Barbera Back In Action In Misano

Spanish Ducati Pramac Racing rider Hector Barbera will be back in action at this weekend's Grand Prix in San Marino, after the his six-week absence. MotoGP arrives in Misano for the second race in Italy.

The Spaniard is eager to jump aboard his Ducati and return on the track and to start working again with his team.
Barbera's recovery, from both the small vertebrae fractured and the broken leg he suffered in a training accident six weeks ago, has gone so well that Barbera is able to get back in action earlier than expected.

The Spaniard has been recovering in his homecountry and has undergone an intensive rehab therapy, which has resulted in Barbera being back in good form.

The 25 year old has missed the last three races over his injuries and currently lies eleventh in the Riders Championship standing with 60 points.

Hector Barbera
"I’m really excited that I’ll ride this weekend on this amazing track. I have a lot of good memories about Misano, especially from 2009 when I won in the middle class. Obviously this year it is a different situation. I didn’t ride for six weeks, but I made a big effort to be ready to race this weekend and the only thing I thought about during the rehabilitation was to be back on my Ducati as soon as I could. I had some down time on my active rehabilitation due to the forced rest after the big crash in Indy, but I worked hard with the passive rehabilitation to recovery as quick as possible.
I feel good, even if I know that on the track it will be a different thing and it could be hard, but I miss my bike and my team and I want to try.
I have to say thanks to a lot of people, in particular to my team, my sponsor, all the people that I worked with in these weeks and also thanks to Toni Elias."
