Fabio Quartararo chooses surgery after having suffered arm-pump troubles during Sunday’s MotoGP in Jerez.

The Frenchman went from leading the race to finishing 13th place after severe arm-pump problems hit him at mid-race.

With his home race at French GP is coming up next, the factory Yamaha rider couldn't manage to waste time.

Despite no official details in the factory team, it is understood that Quartararo underwent the same surgery because of similar problems he suffered in 2021 while with Petronas SRT.

The rider also shared his excitement to return to the track in front of the French GP scheduled in a few days.

According to reports, Quartararo undergoes a typical surgery by cutting the membrane around the muscle to permit more blood flow rather than completely taking out the membrane, which is a more thorough procedure.

Sundays’ result saw Ducati’s Francesco Bagnaia now leading the championship with 66 points, just 2pts in front of Fabio Quartararo while another Yamaha rider, Maverick Vinales 3rd place with 50pts.
