Yesterday it was announced that Rossi will not be at the GB rally as it would clash with the last IRTA test, before testing is banned until 2008.

Even worse is that he crashed in the first 5 minuites of qualifying & has broken 3 bones in his right hand & wrist &; is also suffering from backpain.Despite this accident, he has qualified in 17th position for the race tomorrow. Whether he starts is another question.
Since he started racing at world championship level, he has never missed a race.
Lets hope he gets better soon.
