Sources on the scene at Estoril say Nick Hayden said today that HRC do not wish for him to ride this weekend at the MotoGP race, and barring any last minute reprieve, he probably won't.

Hayden said via press release:

"I want to ride, but the team are understandably being cautious. At the moment it doesn't look likely that I will ride but I want them to wait until the very last minute before ruling me out so we'll make a final decision later this evening."

Hayden broke his collarbone in a dirt bike fall last weekend.
