The 2021 season finale is far from linear for Alex Lowes, forced to fight with an injury to his right hand remedied in the Barcelona round and for which he carries the consequences. He also pays the price in San Juan, where he will be forced to miss Race 2 after a medical examination. The doctors did not give him the okay to take to the track, after the enormous difficulties of the Superpole Race and the British rider from Kawasaki raised the white flag.
It is not the first time that Alex Lowes finishes a weekend early: also in Portimao he finished the weekend early again due to the injury to his hand. Already at El Villicum the Kawasaki rider had declared that he was not in 100% physical shape and that he was struggling a bit to ride the bike. However, he had become the protagonist of great battles in the two races so far, only to have to surrender to the pain.
Thus ends the penultimate round of the season ahead of schedule for Alex Lowes, who plans to take advantage of the month off before the final round in Indonesia. Like the end of the year, the start was not particularly rewarding, having suffered a shoulder injury during the winter that affected him in the winter tests. The official Kawasaki team will therefore take to the track in San Juan El Villicum with only Jonathan Rea’s bike.
