Miller: Better and better each time
Dr. Xavier Mir, one of the doctors tasked with fixing reigning M🌳otoGP champion Marc Marquez's frequent left shoulder dislocations, has said Tuesday's surgery was "more complicated than expected" due to the level of joint damage.
, "I almost do not unde🎐rst♒and how he was able to win the world title like that… it gives him more merit."
Explaining the surge𝕴ry further, Mir revealed that Marquez's humerus bone, which links the shoulder to th𒆙e elbow, was able to pop out "in all directions" requiring open surgery on the bone and additional work to repair the ligaments.
"One hundred pꦍer cent success is not guaranteed by anyone, but after the operation, even with him asleep, we did a stability test… m🐬oving the shoulder in all directions and it did not dislocate," Mir added.
"That is a good sign because,✃ wh꧟en he is awake, the muscles will hold the bone in place more."
The main target is now to get Marquez as fꦡit as possible for the opening 2019 test at Sepang from February 6-8.
Meanwhile, new Repso🌳l Honda team-mate Jorge Lorenzo is also recovering from a more minor operation on his injured right foot𝐆.
