MotoGP Marc Marquez: official news, six weeks after the operation

How is Marc Marquez? Through the official channels of Honda, we finally have news of the state of health of the eight-time World Champion, six weeks after his third humerus operation. And his few extra days spent in the hospital due to infection. What do we learn? It's already not going so bad. But that’s not it yet. In fact, no date is planned for a return. The concern therefore remains…

The tests of Sepang were canceled and one might have thought that a grace period had thus been involuntarily granted to Marc Marquez to prepare for his return to MotoGP. But in view of the press release which follows, it is difficult to imagine that he will even be on his feet for the month of March in Qatar.

The dispatch reads as follows: “ today, Marc Márquez went to the Ruber Internacional Hospital for a medical check-up. The eight-time world champion went there six weeks after the operation performed on December 3 for an infected pseudarthrosis of the right humerus. A satisfactory clinical and radiographic evolution was confirmed at the time of evaluation. Marc Marquez will continue specific antibiotic treatment and a functional recovery program adapted to their clinical situation ».

Marc Marquez still needs time

We note that the antibiotic treatment is still relevant while there is a world of difference between recovery and the resumption of intensive training to be able to challenge a MotoGP and take it to the maximum of its intimidating possibilities. It will therefore still take time, even the time that is passing. Honda, after this written observation will he decide to contact Andrea Dovizioso ? Waiting for, Stefan bradl can continue to keep fit. It will be recalled that the Repsol Honda stand will welcome a new driver in 2021: Pol Espargaro. Alex Marquez, for his part, will be LCR pilot alongside Nakagami. In 2021, for the first time, Honda will line up four latest generation RC213Vs.
