Carmelo Ezpeleta is the boss of Dorna which is the promoter of the Grands Prix. Among other things, because in view of his entire work, the presentation is exhaustive to say the least. The Spaniard and his troops thus overcame the Covid-19 storm in the paddock, a catastrophe hit hard last year which could have been fatal. But the obstacle was well negotiated, to the point that today, countermeasures exist and are reliable. All this to say that when we attack the players in the same paddock, he does not hesitate to step up to the plate. Especially when these players are major, like Marc Marquez and Honda…
We must believe that the rumor is getting too big and that the burden is becoming intolerable. What is it about ? From this advanced hypothesis of a Honda investigation into Marc Marquez, about his version of the domestic accident which resulted in the rupture of his first plate placed on the fractured humerus in Jerez. This is the famous window opening affair. Which almost no one believes.
From Italy to Spain, renowned regulars behind the scenes of the paddock support the thesis of the investigation Honda. The fire thus spread but now Carmelo Ezepeleta comes out of the woods through an interview with the site AS where he lights the counter-fire.
On this day when, too, Honda communicated the date of the presentation of its Repsol team with clearly the 93 beside the 44, which means a Marc Marquez well and truly next to the newcomer Pol Espargaro, Carmelo Ezpeleta thus supports the thesis of normality at HRC: “ Marc must do what suits him and not worry about anything. Of course, it's important that Marc is there, but I don't want to put pressure on him. I speak to him regularly and find him good and strong. He focuses on recovery as much as he can and not on the schedule ».
Carmelo Ezpeleta: " it's a lie "
We will recall that Marc Marquez has had his right arm in a corset for months. As for the doubts about the events that led to three operations and an endless recovery, ranging from medical decisions to opening windows to the Honda investigation, Carmelo Ezpeleta is intended to be clear and concise: “ there was no mediation between the doctors, Márquez and Honda. It's a hoax, a lie. I've spoken to whoever I need to speak to at Honda and there's absolutely nothing what the press is saying, absolutely nothing. I can't say it any clearer ».
And in case it was not made clear, he adds: “ this Honda investigation is absolutely false, and a lie ". A firm stance. But Carmelo Ezpeleta is neither Honda not more than Marc Marquez, the object of rumors since there has been a deafening silence since almost this fall Jerez. And as one of the eminent columnists, whom we contacted on this position taken by the boss of Dorna, who are " if everything was clear, we would have had press releases. This is what happens when you are sure. When there is silence, there is a problem ". Looking forward to the presentation of 22 February ...
