Hector Barbera will be returning to action in next weekend’s GP Aperol di San Marino e della Riviera di Rimini at the Misano World Circuit, after missing the last three races due to two serious and consecutive injuries.
The Pramac rider suffered a fractured tibia and fibula in a training accident ahead of the Laguna Seca race, and after surgery and three weeks of rehabilitation tried to make a return for the Indianapolis GP, but a bad crash during the first free practice left him with two cracked vertebrae (D6 and D8) that forced him to skip the Brno round.
Barbera is currently undergoing physiotherapy at the Fisioreig Clinic in Barcelona, and has been given the green light by his doctors to return to racing and he’ll be back on track on Friday morning for the opening practice session and where he’ll probably find out that Ben Spies is expected to take his place in 2013.
