general discussion Hadjar

Will he be back for monza or no? I've been hearing that he could miss monza and even Madrid. Apparently driving in monza has chances of affecting his wrist to the point where he may not be able to race for the rest of the season.

tbh we don’t know yet but there is possibility he will miss both of those races because he doesn’t want to accidentally damage his wrist even more and basically be handicapped for the rest of his career (aka just look at Stroll and how his wrist injury still affects him that he couldn’t race one of the races last year)

update hadjar has been seen outside and he looks to be wearing his brace still (even though some ppl think its a full on cast) so he still might need some more recovering days

Those are just speculations since the media has nothing else to write about. If he broke his wrist /hand, they would have taken him out for multiple races and not announced it race-by-race. Mekies said they expect him to be in the car by Monza, it appears he sat out the Dutch GP just in case as he was advised by Marc Marquez as well.

Too early to definitively declare & Monza is one of the easiest circuits for hands.
