Thursday MotoGP News Round Up: Martin Injury Update, Fernandez In For Oliveira, Yamaha Steps Up Suzuka Preparation

It's been a relatively busy week since the checkered flag fell after MotoGP's return to Argentina. From Termas de Rio Hondo, a small group of riders headed to Brazil, to visit the Autódromo Internacional Ayrton Senna in Goiânia. And there have been updates on a couple of injured riders. So here's quick round up of the most significant news so far this week.

Jorge Martin may try to return in Qatar

In a video posted to his Instagram account, reigning world champion Jorge Martin gave an update on his recovery from the injuries he suffered in the preseason. The recovery from his first injury - a broken bone in his right hand sustained in a highside after just 13 laps of the Sepang test - had gone relatively rapidly, despite being forced to miss both the Sepang and Buriram tests.
