Rossi sustained fractures to his right leg when he fell during endurance training on Thursday and underwent successful surgery on Friday, before being discharged on Saturday.
He has outlined that he wants to return "as soon as possible", but is expected to miss several MotoGP rounds, and Yamaha has duly announced that he will not be competing this weekend.
It will be the first MotoGP round that Rossi has missed since the 2010 Catalan Grand Prix, having broken his leg at Mugello a few rounds beforehand.
Yamaha will instead concentrate its efforts on Maverick Viñales, who will be the sole entry for the team.
Viñales is currently third in the standings, thirteen points behind Andrea Dovizioso.
All I can say is Get well soon Valentino.
