Fajarasia.co – Marc Marquez, the Repsol Honda rider, has withdrawn from the 2022 MotoGP event. This is because Marquez decided to focus on recovering from a fractured bone he received at the start of the 2020 season.
In an official statement from Honda Racing Corporation (HRC), Marquez said goodbye from this season and explained why.
“I just want to tell you that unfortunately, I have to take a break from the 2022 season, it will take me away from the competition for a while,” said Marquez quoted from Honda Racing Corporation, Sunday (29/5/2022).
Marquez added that this was not an easy decision. But he has great motivation to keep working and trying to get back to competing at the highest level.
With this injury, Marquez was required to rest for almost a full season. Last season, he was allowed to return to racing, although his condition has not fully recovered.
His injury got worse when Marquez experienced a highside during the Italian MotoGP qualifying session at the Mugello Circuit. He also decided to undergo a fourth operation at the Clinica Mayo in America.
“Since I returned to racing, I have felt a big limit. Even under these circumstances, I never gave up and kept pushing, working, doing what the doctor said,” said Marquez, quoted from Crash.net, Sunday (29/5/). 2022).
Marquez said he realized that this season he was not enjoying being on the bike. In particular, because of the pain he was feeling. So, there is no power and can not race as he wanted.
As a result, his left shoulder also began to experience pain. Because, Marquez weighed more on his left hand so that his right hand wouldn’t hurt.
Apparently, the healing process in his bones did not go smoothly. Marquez mentioned that there was too much rotation in the arm.
“It seems like a nightmare, but I’m sure I’ll be back soon. It’s going to be tough, I know it. I don’t know how long it will take to heal. But, this is the moment to do it, because they have no doubts. we will see if we can come back soon. There is no need to rush, “said Marquez.
