Sete Gibernau
Gibernau's career has been blighted by a string of injury problems

Sete Gibernau's future in MotoGP is in doubt after his Ducati satellite team Grupo Francisco Hernando withdrew from the championship for financial reasons.

The Spaniard returned to the series this season after two years away and competed in six races, missing two others because of a broken collarbone.

"I am the most surprised at this decision," said Gibernau.

"It's a shame that just as we're getting close to picking up the results we were after we have had to pull out."

The former world championship runner-up has yet to make a statement over whether he plans to continue riding.

He retired for the first time in 2006 after a crash at the Portuguese Grand Prix.

Gibernau's most recent race of his comeback also ended in disappointment, crashing out of the United States Grand Prix at Laguna Seca.
