Monday's Jerez test presented Marc Marquez with his first chance to ride the 2021 Repsol Honda outs🥀ide of a MotoGP ra🍨ce weekend.

But his battered body had other ideas.

Already well below full stren♛gth after nine months on the sidelines with a broken right arm, Marquez had also suffered two big falls during the grand prix weekend.

The Spaniard, hoping to get the all-clear from his doctors soon to start training again 🎃between races, managed just seven laps🌸 at the test before calling it a day.

“Today we didn’t really test, just one run because on the second r𝐆un my bo🌜dy was already locking up," Marquez said.

"My neck and my right shoulder were stiff, it’s similar to after Portimao but I was not as locked upꦦ as I was after Portugal. The crash I had on Saturday didn’t help with my physical condition꧃.

"I thought that maybe today when my body had warmed-up it would be better, and I coul🅺d try but straight away I could tell I wasnꦜ’t at a good level for riding.

"We spoke as a team and decided to stop the test, we need to understand that we’re improving step by step and the ne♔xt target is Le Mans where we will try to improve again."

"On Wednesday I have a doctor check," Marquez coꦦnfirmed. "They will decide If I am ableꦐ to increase the training at home."

After a seventh place on his MotoGP comeback in Portimao𓆉, Marquez finished ni𓃲nth on Sunday, but did reduce his margin to victory from +13s to +10s.

The eight-time world champion will start the French 🌠Grand Prix 50-points behind title leader Francesco Bagnaia (Ducati).
