Zarko’s Return Delayed: New Announcement from LCR
The motorsport world was shaken by a worrying crash during the Catalunya Grand Prix, one of the first races of the 2024 MotoGP season, and new developments regarding Johann Zarco’s condition emerged. LCR Honda made significant announcements regarding the French pilot’s health status and his return to competition.
Details of the Crash and Initial Assessment
During the restarted main race of the Catalunya Grand Prix, Johann Zarco, who made contact with Pecco Bagnaia and Luca Marini at Turn 1, tangled his foot with his Ducati, damaging it. Immediately after the incident, Zarco was taken to the hospital, and following the examinations, he returned to France on Monday. The initial assessment revealed a serious injury to his knee.
Expert Assessment and Treatment Plan
The French driver was examined on Tuesday in Lyon by orthopedic specialist Bertrand Sonnery-Cottet, a specialist in knee ligament injuries. Following the detailed examinations, doctors determined that Zarco would not undergo surgery immediately, but that several weeks should be allowed for the healing of his initial trauma and other damage to his knee. During this period, Zarco’s knee will be shielded from load and he will be rested. A detailed rehabilitation program will be implemented after surgery.
“I felt regret about starting to race again after such a big crash, as I wasn’t physically ready.” – Johann Zarco
Mugello and Beyond
According to a statement from LCR Honda, Zarco will undergo surgery for his ligament injury within a few weeks. The surgical intervention requires the healing of the trauma to his knee. A clearer timeline will be established regarding the return to competition following the surgery. This means that Zarco will definitely miss the Italian GP at Mugello. After Mugello, he will be present at the Grand Prix in Hungary and a total of three more races until the summer break, during which time it is expected that the French driver will be away from motorcycles for a significant portion of the period.

Developments from Gresini
