Ogura travels to Austria aiming for his first start since Silverstone

Ai Ogura is heading to the Red Bull Ring after receiving positive news from a medical check in Barcelona. The Trackhouse rider missed Aragón and Misano after surgery on a fracture near his left thumb following a training crash in Japan.

His return is not guaranteed yet: he must pass the circuit's mandatory medical check on Thursday. If cleared, it will be his first Grand Prix since Silverstone. Ogura remains sixth in the championship, 71 points off the lead.
