Takaaki Nakagami tested positive for COVID-19 on Monday right before the Japanese racer was scheduled to fly from Spain to Argentina. However, MotoGP shipping delays played in the rider’s favor and after a few negative COVID-19 results, Nakagami will saddle up this weekend in Argentina.
At first, Nakagami got a positive COVID-19 PCR test on Monday. He was asymptomatic and produced positive results from subsequent tests. Following the initial result, Nakagami continued to test every two days since Monday, and he has thankfully returned several negative results. He was advised by doctors to keep testing in the next few days.
