Marc Marquez started his season two Grands Prix behind his colleagues and with three events remaining, he is already taking stock of this campaign, where he is also in the lead in the number of crashes. However, he also won two victories, in his strongholds of Sachsenring and Austin which did not betray him. But whereas in the world before his injury, these meetings were a formality, in the world after, he had to grit his teeth. And this is a sign for 2022 that the eight-time World Champion would like to point out to his employer Honda…
We often hear this phrase which means that Marc Marquez returned as before, that we found the one who had slipped away after his violent fall in Jerez in 2020 and the delicate injury that he further aggravated. A refrain that was sung after his victory at Sachsenring and who returned after its realization to Austin. But we forget that this is not the case, and that these were two real exploits from the pilot who wants to make things clear...
Honesty and transparency that do him credit. He thus warns his fans, but not only: he sincerely alerts the engineers Honda that this time they will have to rise to the occasion and rethink an RC213V to which he can no longer accommodate. And for good reason. Here is its state of form, defined in Marc Marquez in the text : " the arm has not healed » he said brutally. “ The bone has not completely strengthened and the suffering is great ". And he adds coldly: “ I will work to improve further, butif my physical condition remains the same I will not be able to fight for the world championship even in 2022 ».
Marc Marquez: “ the bone is not yet completely healed, you have to be patient«
Marc Marquez even talks about a new operation. Because if it is not current, it is clear that the option is not crossed out: “ at this time no operation is planned. I have to work on the arm. It takes time: before Misano I did a check and we saw that the bone is not yet completely healed, you have to be patientyou”.
Heavy words and they are aimed at Honda: “ a new and better motorcycle is much needed. But I'm confident because Honda is working hard ". The eight-time World Champion explains his ordeal thus: “ it's clear that I still have problems, in Austin I was always late to change direction. I have to work twice as hard. It's a really tough season.. Sometimes I fall and I don’t know why, sometimes I’m fast and I don’t understand why, and sometimes I’m slow without understanding the reasons.” He finishes : “Now we go back to Misano and I already know it will be very difficult, so I want to see what level I will be at in the last two races ". In all cases, Honda will have to pay his part in MotoGP.
