Xavi Vierge recovery update
Following surgery to repair multiple fractures of the cuboid bone in his right foot on 20 May, Xavi Vierge is making positive progress with his rehabilitation. As of this week, he has started to gradually reintroduce his right foot into training sessions, adhering to a progressive program under the supervision of the medical team.
The next medical checkup is scheduled for Tuesday 10 June, during which an additional scan will be performed. Vierge plans to fly to Italy on Wednesday 11 June to join the team ahead of the Emilia-Romagna WorldSBK round, set to take place on 13-15 June at the Misano World Circuit “Marco Simoncelli.”
The Honda HRC team will continue to monitor Xavi’s progress closely and will provide further updates next Wednesday, prior to the Emilia-Romagna round.

“I had another check-up with the doctor, and everything looks good. I’m recovering faster than expected; this week, we’ve gradually started integrating my foot into training sessions. It’s been tough, but we’re on the right track. I started walking, with crutches of course, and I can begin using my foot a little in the gym and during physiotherapy, starting a proper recovery in a progressive way. If all goes well, on Monday I will start riding the bicycle on the turbo trainer, and on Tuesday I will go back to the hospital to get a final scan. If everything is fine, I will fly to Misano on Wednesday, so everything is going well.”
