Marquez Returns to the Paddock as He Returns to Championship Pursuit
Seven-time MotoGP world champion Marc Marquez is returning to the track this weekend at the Italian Grand Prix after a long hiatus following the serious crash at the 2022 Indonesian Grand Prix and the resulting injuries. The Spanish pilot had to take a long break from racing after undergoing surgery on his right shoulder due to pressure on the radial nerve caused by the metal pieces inserted into it, having missed the Catalunya Grand Prix.
Marquez’s Rebirth and Championship Plans
Marquez is celebrating his return to the track with this weekend’s race at Mugello, clarifying his position in the championship battle. With Marco Bezzecchi leading the championship by 85 points, Marquez explicitly stated that his return is not part of a championship fight.
“If I return with the thought of being able to win the championship, I will get injured again.”
Marquez emphasized that his return is focused on rebuilding his future and that sustaining his performance in the early races of the season is unlikely. He is assessing whether his right arm can recover and prioritizes maintaining his physical condition. He stated that he is analyzing the situation with his doctors, physiotherapists, and himself, noting that the surgery was recent and therefore requires time.
A Journey Forward with Time and Patience
Marquez explained that they will spend this time on the motorcycle and that he has defined the weekend approach with a focus on development session by session. “This weekend is like the continuation of other race weekends. We are trying to take steps firmly because when you experience nerve damage – and there is no active damage currently – it takes time to return to normal.”
The rider said he will continue to work and push himself, wanting to see if he can reach a level where he can compete with the fastest riders in the upcoming races. He emphasized the need for patience, stating that it takes time to return to normal due to nerve damage after the surgery.
Race Preparation and Future Goals
Marquez is focusing on the Mugello Grand Prix, aiming to recover his physical condition and regain his speed. This weekend, like other race weekends, they are trying to take firm steps and that they need time to return to normal in case of nerve damage.
