recently, but only one passed.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Both Tarran Mackenzie and Alberto Surra sustained injuries at the UK WorldSBK before the summer break in July.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Surra had sustained a shoulder injury that ruled him out from FP3 onwards, while Mackenzie suffered fractures to his shoulder blade, collarbone, and the tibia and fibula in his left leg.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Motocorsa\u2019s Surra has been passed fit to ride at Magny-Cours this morning, but Mackenzie has been less fortunate, with the leg injuries requiring more time to heal before he will be allowed to get back on track in WorldSBK.<\/p>\n<figure> <source
