RiderTua.com – Marc Márquez provided information about the condition of his right arm a few days before the start of the 2024 MotoGP season. The MotoGP Championship will start in a few days, and there is a lot of interest to see how Marc Márquez performs in his first race on a Ducati bike. The last few seasons have been particularly complicated for the former Honda rider, a nightmare that started with a hand injury that required four operations in July 2020. With serious physical problems, he seemed stable again, but he would never be the same again.
In recent days, strong doubts have emerged regarding the condition of his right arm, but no one from Marc Marquez’s management has confirmed or denied them. One thing is certain: he no longer resembles the explosive Marc he once was, winning six MotoGP titles in seven years. “Three years ago, I suffered a serious injury to my arm.
Now my arm functions well, but it has undergone four operations. If I ask a doctor’s opinion, (whether) my arm is functioning well. They will say yes, but what is clear is that my arm is no longer the same as it was before the accident.”
In a sport where details make the difference, physical factors certainly play a dominant role. On the final day of the Qatar test, the eight-time world champion tried to improve his time but fell. No one knew whether it was a coincidence or because of his arm problem. In his recent interview with DAZN media, MotoGP rider from Cervera did not hide his difficult health condition. “As I always say, and I’m not lying, this is an arm that has had four operations, so it requires more attention than the others. So I have to look after it. Before the season starts, I can do the usual tests and train well from home,” he said.
Marc Marquez once considered retiring until his fourth operation to the United States in 2022 brought new hope. However, over the last two years he experienced many accidents and disappointing results with his Honda RC213V and decided to leave the team (Honda) and return to racing with another bike (Ducati). Although there were no serious injuries during the Qatar test, he was unable to complete the race simulation due to an accident. “I did a long run. I thought I crashed on the 12th lap, but I will do 20 laps. If we plan it like that, physically it means we will feel better. “Realistically, we are fighting for the best position at the moment , fifth or sixth,” said Marquez.
What is clear is that his hands are still in good condition, although perhaps not 100% like before. A prediction about Marc’s high achievements is fine, but it will be determined more by the ongoing adaptation with the Ducati Desmosedici than his arm problems.
