WorldSBK: Dominique Aegerter undergoes arm pump surgery ahead of Misano

Twice on the🉐 front row this season after taking WorldSBK by storm, Aဣegerter has been unable to avoid the same issues that cause so many riders problems.
Aegerter, who secured a season-best qualifying of P2 at last month’s Cat♊alunya round, claimed three con🌳secutive top ten finishes in the races for the second weekend in a row.

And while it was one of the strongest rounds for the two-time WorldSSP champion, Aegerter has since undergone surge🍸ry after struggling with arm pump.
Like most of the grid, Aegerter took part in the recent two-day Misano tes♔t before having the surgery.
However, the Swiss rider won’t miss any time as he remains on course to take part in next month’s Mi🦹sano round, the first of twᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚo in Italy as Imola follows Misano and the British round at Donington Park.
"Arm pump surgery. Like many rider🧔s I also ♉struggled with pain in the forearm while riding the big bike," said Aegerter on his social media. "After many different therapies I decided to have an operation. Thanks to all the medical team."
A c🍷ommon issue, not just for riders that make the step up to a bigger bike, but also those who are experienced with 1000cc machinery.
