Ducati rider undergoes surgery on his collarbone

Getting prepared for the upcoming season, and the big challenge with the all new Ducati Paniagle V4 R, Chaz Davies (Aruba.it Racing – Ducati) underwent surgery in Barcelona this week on his right collarbone which he fractured in training over the summer.

Training at the start of the summer break on a mountain bike, he fractured his collarbone and was able to heal throughout the break. But he suffered more injuries at the end of the summer break, crashing a Supermotard at MotorLand Aragon just weeks before the WorldSBK return around Portimao in September.

Undergoing surgery throughout the season he has now had a successful operation with enough time to heal before the 2019 challenge begins at Phillip Island Grand Prix Circuit in February.
