Haga recovering well at home in Japan
Haga rode two gritty races at the Brno race last time out, despite the pain and lack of strength in his shoulder. His condition has greatly improved now, thanks to rest for his injury, interspersed with periods using special rehabilitation equipment and even an oxygen capsule. As Haga said, "My summer vacation was spent mostly in rehabilitation for my body, so I will be better in Germany, where I look forward to riding my Ducati".
Haga arrives back to Europe on 30 August, before heading to Germany to defend his seven point championship lead in the 11th round of the championship.
