After a stunning maiden podium at his home German GP in July, Jonas Folger then sat out the end of the 2017 season after beginning to suffer with illness. Subsequently diagnosed with a rare strain of Gilbert Syndrome, a common genetic disorder affecting 2%-5% of the population in which the liver is unable to process toxins effectively, the Monster Yamaha Tech 3 rider reset his focus on recovery ahead of 2018. Sadly, the German has now been forced to announce that he will not be able to race this season – neither physically nor mentally ready to make a return.
