Gibernau commits to Portugal race
Sete Gibernau
Gibernau was not impressed with Rossi's move
Sete Gibernau will race in Portugal this weekend despite injuring his shoulder in the opening race in Spain.

The Honda rider led most of his home race until Yamaha's Valentino Rossi forced his way through on the final corner and sent him into the gravel.

"I don't think I will 100% for the race, and this bothers me, but I will definitely be in Estoril," he said.

"I feel really motivated for the next race and am focused on recovering as best I can to continue my good form."

Gibernau had earlier rated his chances of racing in Portugal as "doubtful".

The incident damaged a tendon in his left shoulder, on which he has already had two operations.
