Marc Marquez’s injury hell: “A thousand doubts - when ghosts appear…”

Marc Marquez’s perseverance through the agony of surgeries and recoveries is just about rediscovering himself as a motorcycle racer, says Alex Marquez.

Marc’s career was at stake when he went under the knife for the fourth time earlier this year to mend his troublesome right arm, an injury that is in addition to his doubl▨e-vision problem.

His comeback has been impressive so far and he has spoken boldly about adding to his six MotoGP cham🐻pionships, but according to his younger brother, the true meaning ✅of Marc’s revival is much simpler.

“He’s a born winner,” Alex said to DAZN.꧙ “He has 🦋done nothing but raced and won. I don’t think he’s looking for a title, but he wants to find himself and go back to doing what he did before on the bike.

“We saw him overtu๊rn situations that, at the time, were thought to be at the limit, until [the injuries] occurred. 

“This was more than a limit, and he had to cross it four times. It was the situation in which he grew the most, the one in which he learned the most, and which will make him even strong🐽er in the future.

“When everything goes well, things aren’t taken into consideration. The exceptional thing becomes normal and, when something like this happens to you, with four surgeries, everyday life and the simplest thi🌠ngs acquire more value. This means that, on the circuit and outside, life♔ has more gusto.”

Marquez must overcome the limitations of his Repsol Honda bike next season, as well as his physical issues, if he is to challenge for a seventh MotoGP championship (the same tally that 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Valentino Rossi accrued).

But he must do it without his brother in the same team - Alex will be in the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:2023 MotoGP rider line-up for Gresini Ducati, a 🗹notable move because it potentially🌠 opens up a future exit for Marc, too.

But, earlier this year when🐽 Marc needed surgery again, he had agonising conversations wi🐻th his brother about quitting altogether.

“He knows that when Iไ’m serious, I really am,” Alex said. 

“There were a thousand doubts, and I said to him: ‘Okay, what if you don’t? Can you compete? No. Well, there’s your answer. Try, then you’ll know if you can compe🥀te again, but you can’t do it like this’.

“He had never talked to me openly about retirement. That day, he talk🧔ed about it. 

“🅺He never thought about what he would do after motorcycling, but he wanted to stay tied to this world, helping young people as he has alread💫y done. But I told him: ‘Don’t be silly. In four days, you’ll be back on the bike’.

“Super Marc doesn’t exist. He’s also human. His big rescues, the 𝓡fact that he falls and, two minutes later, he’s in the garage - that’s not normal. There comes a time when you push hard, and you don’t have luck on your side. That is where you suffer. But he’s an exceptional rider who does wonderful things🌃.”

Marc’s chief technician, Santi Hernández, 𝔍added: “His fourth operation was his last chance, and it was all or nothing. 

“He didn’t know if it would be the last one, if he could fix his injury, or if they were going to tell him: ‘There’s nothing that can be d⛦one,  you have tﷺo retire’.  

“It was the decisive mo♐ment of his career, of a bad period. When ghosts appear, you think of 🎃many things.”

His mechanic Javier Ortiz said: “It was three years of ‘no, yes, no’. Now, things seem to be a little better. Now, it seems that t🤪hings are a bit like they were before.

“It was also difficult for us because we saw him suffer. He wanted t🧸o be there but couldn’t becaus♛e of his arm. He could’ve isolated himself during his recovery, but he never stopped being who he was.”
