For now, the 59-year-old Italian continues to breathe with the aid of a mechanical ventilator.“Fausto Gresini’s general clinical conditions – albeit still fragile – are improving,” confirmed Doctor Nicola Cilloni, who has been providing frequent medical updates on the MotoGP team manager.”He is awake and very cooperative; he is still aided by the breathing machine but has begun with physiotherapy already.”Today’s visit by his wife Nadia, whom he welcomed with great emotion, has surely strengthened his already well-known great determination.”Related ArticlesaccImages.createImage(); Dovizioso ‘never received Ducati offer’, ‘Gigi closed doors in 2019’accImages.createImage(); Kevin Schwantz: Brivio’s Suzuki exit leaves ‘big void to fill’Gresini, the only MotoGP team boss known to have contracted Covid, was diagnosed just before Christmas.After intitally self-isolating at home, Gresini’s deteriorating condition required admission to hospital in Imola on December 27, then a move to the specialist Covid ward in Bologna on December 30.
