YAMAHA'S JORGE Lorenzo has had a massive highside in the first free practice session for this Sunday's MotoGP race in Shanghai, China that early reports are suggesting has left him with two fractured ankles and will not be able to race on Sunday.

Lorenzo has also suffered a badly cut right knee. Lorenzo has been transferred to the Huashan Hospital where tests will take place to determine just how bad the injuries are.

Team boss Daniele Romagnoli said: "At the moment I do not believe that Jorge is able to race because he has so much pain in his ankles.”
