Marc Marquez operated on his right arm a third time … for all ?

Badly injured from the first GP 2020, logically forced to retire the following week and unfortunately forfeit the rest of the MotoGP 2020 season, Marc Marquez has just undergone a third operation of the right humerus, which would have gone perfectly…. according to official Honda statement.

Unprecedented fact in the career of Marc Marquez: in 2020, the n ° 93 did not score a single point in the MotoGP world championship! Conversely, the former world number one was treated to lots of stitches in his arm … Perhaps more than his colleague Cal Crutchlow, which is saying a lot. !

Fallen – twice! – during the first Grand Prix of the season in Jerez, the Spanish rider had to have surgery on his right humerus … twice as well, then. Unfortunately, the fracture healed poorly, turning into pseudarthrosis (less than 5% of cases): the union between the two pieces of bone was never made.

Yesterday (Thursday) therefore, "Marc Màrquez underwent a new operation on his right arm due to the slow healing of the humerus, which was not improved by a specific shock wave treatment, revealed the Honda Repsol team. at the end of the evening.

Never two without three…

Carried out at the Ruber International Hospital in Madrid by five doctors and in eight hours (!), The operation would have gone perfectly: "Samuel Antuña, Ignacio Roger de Oña, Juan de Miguel, Aitor Ibarzabal and Andrea García Villanueva (.. .) removed the previously placed plate, placed a new one, and proceeded to a bone graft ("iliac crest bone graft with a corticoperiosteal free flap", in the text) ".

It is obviously far too early to discuss the rest of the operations (hum): will the 2013-14-16-17-18-19 MotoGP champion be on the starting grid for the Qatar GP? Nothing is less certain … Especially since it is not certain at the moment that this opening Grand Prix scheduled for March 28 will simply take place. Business to follow, stay connected !
