But Marquez is back in action th🌊is weekend after rumours regarding his future continued to explode following last weekend.
Marquez is contracted to the Japan꧅ese manufacturer until the end of 2024, but it had been speculated that he could seek a way out 🌊before then.
Ho🌞wever, Marquez said he remains committed to the current project, albeit it wasn’t the most reassuring update f𓃲or Honda: "If I’m here it’s because my compromise with Honda is the maximum. I want to work with them to improve the future and to improve our project.
"I’m here to work with them. At the🎐 moment, Of course I’m here to work with them and as I say, working with them means next year’s project.&nb✃sp;
"T🐻his year will not change life too much.🐠 The compromise is maximum."
Marquez suffered ankle and finger injuries last weekend, however, the Repsol Honda star also admitted to a cracked rib, all of which means he c💧omes into the Dutch r🌌ound less than 100% fit.
"I aꦓrrive at the limit this weekend but we did a very good job the last three days in Madrid with my medical team," said the Spaniard.
"My ankle was one of the biggest problems before coming here because the inflammation was a lot but they did a good job now I🍰 don’t think it will be a big problem.
"In the thumb; it’s broken but luckily for m♔e it’s just the last part. It’s just🎐 the rib [injury].
"I have a crack in the second rib and it will be a problem. As soon as I breathe or if 💧I push with my arm [it 💖hurts], but let’s see from FP1."
