  "account": "Spanish rider Jorge Martin is out for the remainder of the MotoGP season after fracturing his arm at the Australian round. (EPA Images) Martin, who was aiming to capitalize on the title battle, was involved in a high-speed crash during Saturday's sprint race at Phillip Island. The Spaniard came off his bike on lap eight, challenging eventual winner Marc Marquez for the lead, and slid across the gravel. Aprilia confirmed Martin had a radius fracture and a suspected ulna fracture, ruling him unfit to race on Sunday. X-rays revealed the extent of the damage, and Martin will undergo further examinations to determine his condition more definitively. Marquez's victory in the race extended his lead over Martin to 10 points heading into the final MotoGP in Australia. The outcome of the season finale remains uncertain due to poor visibility at the circuit, which has delayed the final warm-up. There are four more rounds remaining in the season, with the Malaysian MotoGP scheduled for the following weekend.",
