Cal Crutchlow is going to run a MotoGP race again.Well, specifically three.The British pilot will be on the Yamaha del Petronas both in the two great prizes of the Red Bull Ring, Stretia and Austria, as in his house career, the Grand Prix of Great Britain, which will be played in Silverstone.
Crutchlow will replace the injured Franco Morbidelli, who already lost the Grand Prix of the Netherlands for his knee problems and that he will not be able to recover 100% even after the summer break.At most he will be back at the Aragon Grand Prix, and not even that is clear.
Morbidelli is also a doubt for Motorland
The Italian pilot was operated on the meniscus before the summer break, which will keep him eight weeks.Garrett Gerloff replaced him in Assen, and Crutchlow will do it in the double of Red Bull Ring and also in Silverstone.We will see if the British presence of the Yamaha does not last.

Crutchlow returns to the World Cup half a year after his last race with the Honda CSF, the Portugal Grand Prix.He will pilot the colors of Yamaha eight years after he left for the mark of the fingerboard, back in 2013, when he piloted in Tech3 and made the leap to Ducati.
"It is difficult to establish objectives for these three races and more than understand the motorcycle, since I have had limited driving days this year.The good thing will be that I can compare the motorcycles and I should be able to collect many data for Yamaha, "Crutchlow says about his return.
After ten seasons in MotoGP, Cal Crutchlow has won three races, all with Honda, has left four times since the pole position and has climbed to the podium on 19 occasions with three different brands, Yamaha, Ducati and Honda.We will see what he is capable of in this fleeting return to the competition.
"It was a joint decision between Yamaha and we ask Cal Crutchlow to replace Franco, while recovering from the operation," Razali says about replacing his star pilot with Yamaha's tester.And it is that the relationships between both parties are improving.
