How is Marc Marquez?
In recent years Marc Marquez has never wanted to use his physical condition as a reason to try to justify difficult moments. On the contrary, the Spaniard has always tried to minimize, explaining that he is focused on finding his new 100%, rather than looking back at the past – recent and more distant.
It has been almost three months since the right shoulder surgery, to fix the radial nerve that was being touched by one of the screws applied after the 2020 accident.

“I’m fine,” Marquez assured journalists in the Silverstone paddock, but hinted that it’s not quite like that: “Speaking about my right arm, it’s not the same right arm as last year, it’s not the same as the first part of the season. It’s a different right arm. So I will try to get used to it and, yes, I will try to be 100% every weekend.”
What is not working?
In statements reported by Manuel Pecino for Motosan, Marc Marquez went into detail about the new condition of his arm: “Some muscles are improving and others are not. But, as I said, I don’t want to dwell on how things are. It is what it is. So, with this in mind, I will try to find a solution. I will try to find the right riding style. I will once again adapt my riding style to what my physical condition requires.”

Surely the holidays helped the Ducati rider catch his breath – after 3 wins in the last 4 races: “I rested a bit. I did some activities to recharge the batteries, but always with the gym near the holiday home. I try to keep improving my fitness level”.
Marc Marquez is currently third in the riders’ world championship, 18 points behind leader Jorge Martin.
