REPSOL Honda just released an update on the condition of its star rider and six-time MotoGP champion Marc Marquez.
Marquez has been struggling with an injury since falling at the championship season opener in Jerez in 2020. The first injury was repaired with a plate, although a rash return the next weekend caused further damage. This damage resulted in pseudarthrosis, a type of infection that prevented the bone from doing as it should.
After several operations on the arm, Marquez finally has a positive prognosis from doctors, his injury is only just beginning to heal properly.

The statement reads:
‘Another study by Marc Marquez at the Ruber Internacional Hospital 10 weeks after the operation of an infected pseudoarthrosis of the right humerus has confirmed a favorable clinical situation.
“The medical team, led by doctors Samuel Antuña and Ignacio Roger de Oña, and doctors Juan De Miguel, Aitor Ibarzabal and Andrea García Villanueva, assessed the radiographic signs of bone consolidation and was satisfied with the progress.
“From now on and over the next few weeks, Marquez will be able to steadily advance the process of functional restoration of the operated arm.”
It is not yet entirely clear whether Marquez will start the MotoGP season in 2021. The season opening runs and pre-season tests are scheduled to take place in Qatar in March. Marquez and his medical team likely won’t want the Spanish star to get active again, either
