Team manager of the Red Bull KTM factory team Ian Harrison, gave an update on the injury to Jorge Prado, and while it seems he should be okay to race soon, it also seems like a bit of a mystery.

Ian Harrison: “Jorge crashed in practice and at first, like anything, you always feel the sting. You’re worried because he has had an injury to that shoulder before, so we had it checked out in the medical center and everything looked okay, other than aches and pains.

“On a track like tonight, you have to have everything working properly. We asked him to give it a try, but I said that if he didn’t feel he was up to it or if it wasn’t going to be safe, then we’re not in a title-fight with him – he’s doing an amazing job so far – so it was his option. He decided [to] have it checked out again, maybe get some therapy on it, and I’m sure he’ll be back next week, but it doesn’t look like there is any major injury.”

“I think Jorge is a very, very talented rider,” continued Harrison. “He is figuring out a lot of things and is on the same trajectory as what Ken Roczen was on years ago, so I think his potential is really, really high.”
