Marc Márquez will miss the first two races of the MotoGP season in 2021

Marc Márquez and his Honda team have announced that he would not compete in the first two rounds of the 2021 MotoGP season, which will be held in Qatar.

Marc Márquez and his Honda team have revealed that he would miss the first two rounds of the 2021 MotoGP season in Qatar, delaying his return from injury.

“After the last review with the medical team, the doctors have advised me that the most prudent thing was not to take part in the Qatar Grand Prix and to continue with the recovery plan that we have followed in recent weeks,” Márquez said in statement.

“I would have loved to be able to participate in the opening race of the World Championship, but we will have to continue working to be able to recover the optimal conditions that allow us to return to competition.”

Márquez broke his right humerus during the Spanish GP last season, and an unsuccessful return the following week at Jerez, just days after surgery, was the last time the six-time world champion rode a MotoGP bike.

After a second operation, an infection developed, necessitating a third operation, which kept the Spaniard from riding his bike for eight months.

Márquez and his team recently posted videos of him riding practice bikes and indicated that his recovery is going well, making a return to Qatar seem possible.

Despite the fact that his return has been postponed again again, HRC stated that the doctor’s prognosis remains positive.

“In the review carried out on the Spanish rider by the medical team led by Doctors Samuel Antuña and Ignacio Roger de Oña, and made up of Doctors De Miguel, Ibarzabal and García Villanueva, 15 weeks after surgery for an infected pseudoarthrosis of the right humerus, a good clinical response has been found after the intensification of his training,” HRC said in its statement.

“However, considering the time period and the current state of the bone consolidation process, doctors consider it prudent and necessary not to accelerate Marquez’s return to the track after such an inactive time, and to avoid putting the humerus at risk in intense competition. Marquez will undergo another medical check on Monday, April 12.”

Despite his forced absence, Márquez is still a strong contender for the 2021 title: he won the championship in 2019 with 420 points, compared to Andrea Dovizioso’s 269 points.
