Aldeguer fractures leg in Panigale test crash ahead of 2026 MotoGP season
Gresini's Fermin Aldeguer suffered a leg fracture during Ducati Panigale V4 testing at Valencia's Aspar Circuit, part of a pre-season camp organized by Marc Marquez. The sophomore rider was among several MotoGP pilots preparing for 2026 on the Italian superbike—a machine that's become de facto development platform for factory talent.
Nothing says 'preparing for 2026' like breaking your leg on a production bike in January. At least the Panigale V4 did what it was supposed to do.
