Pedrosa improving step by step

Dani Pedrosa wrote on his weekly Repsol blog that he is improving with each day but offered no sign of whether he will be fit for a return to action at the Spanish Grand Prix in ten days time.

“I’m writing to you again, with another clear message: each day I’m improving a little, but patience is equally as important,” wrote Pedrosa. “This is precisely how we’re taking it now: slowly, step by step. You’ve got to let the days pass for the rehabilitation to be progressively positive. At the moment they took out the stitches, and the rehab is going fine. We are following the doctors’ schedule and thanks to the time in rehab I’m responding well.”

Pedrosa has been replaced by Hiroshi Aoyama for the last two Grand Prix.
