Moto2 Aragon: Injuries, replacements and riders fired

Moto2 teams are becoming difficult to follow with a whirlwind of riders coming and going, injuries and replacements and last but not least, riders being fired.
After Lukas Pesek being axed from Matteoni Racing and being temporarily replaced by Santiago Hernandez, we now have Arne Tode being dropped from Racing Team Germany before the Motorland Aragon GP.

Tode was axed because of lack of results and because he was injured at Brno.
The former IDM Supersport champion injured his left shoulder and arm at Brno and refused to undergo surgery preferring to race at Indianapolis and then had to pull out of Misano, leaving the team stranded just hours before the start of the racing weekend.

Tode is being replaced by 19-year old Kazuki Watanabe, who currently races in the All Japan Supersport championship.
