Emilio Alzamora: “ it is difficult to find competent doctors«
« He touched the same nerve, a difficult thing but it happens. The important thing is to stay positive and be in good hands. It is difficult to find competent doctors, but we found a doctor, Dr. Sanchez Dalmau, who gives us confidence. He already has experience, we know the timing. It's a shame he won't take part in the Jerez test, but for now his recovery is more important"
To Emilio Alzamora, the priority is the health of the champion, before even thinking about recovery time. “ Hurrying is not necessary, the times will be those necessary, the doctors are professionals and we trust them… We do not exclude that he will be on the grid in Qatar in 2022. But I think he will be fine and that he will come back to have fun. Mental strength is important, he is very positive and that helps him a lot. We all need to be there for him, give him a helping hand and get through this winter. » As he approaches his 30th birthday, Marc Marquez must take more and more into account the rate of wear and tear on his body.
