Injuries have plagued six-time MotoGP champion Marc Marquez for the past three seasons. Following a violent crash at Spain’s Jerez Circuit, the Repsol Honda rider sat out the rest of the 2020 season due to an arm injury. Marquez returned in 2021, tallying three wins before a late-season crash sidelined the eight-time world champ for the final two rounds of the season.
Number 93’s luck hasn’t been much better in 2022 either. Marquez’s diplopia (double vision) returned after a high-speed, high-side crash at turn 11 of Indonesia’s Mandalika Circuit. The injury forced the 29-year-old rider to sit out the Indonesian and Argentinian Grands Prix. He returned with strong results, however, capturing two sixth-place finishes and a fourth place in the next three races.
