From a press release issued by Foggy Petronas Racing:

Troy’s puncture is good news!

Troy Corser arrived back in Europe today declaring he was back to full fitness following his spectacular crash at Phillip Island.

The 140km somersault during Saturday qualifying aggravated the shoulder problems that he had been suffering ever since his crash at Magny-Cours in the final round of last year.

The strained tendons of his rotator cuff had troubled the Australian throughout the winter and had caused some discomfort during this year’s first round at Valencia.

But Troy resorted to acupuncture to cure the problem once and for all, with resounding success.

He said: “I have used acupuncture a few years ago when I broke my collar bone and I actually think it works better for me than traditional methods like massage.

“As soon as I got back to Wollongong from Sydney I went for a treatment and now the shoulder actually feels better than it did before the Valencia race.

“I had obviously aggravated things with this latest fall, as well as straining muscles at the front of my neck but now I have no restrictions at all and I have been taking advantage of the good weather at home to keep fit by riding my dirt bike and jet-skis.”

After a few days in the UK visiting family, Troy, Sam and Kalani will return to Monaco this weekend before joining the team in Misano on Thursday.
