MotoGp, Marquez: finally a smile. First day of cycling in the gym

BARCELONA – This time no sets of push-ups or heavy dumbbells raised with the biceps: Marc Marquez if he limits his Instagram photo to post while riding an exercise bike in Cervera (“First day of cycling at the gym!”, he comments for his fans), with his right arm immobilized and protected by a rigid Robocop-style armor. But it is still a signal for everyone, fans and rivals: the Catalan does not give up, the recovery after the third operation on his arm is continuing and the medical consultation in recent days has been favorable.

Muscle tone must now be recovered

He remains on antibiotics to recover from the bone infection, the transplant of a piece of the hip to help the consolidation of the humerus seems to work, he will have to regain all the muscle tone of the limb thanks to the help of the physiotherapist Carlos Garcìa, he learned the lesson and he knows that this time it will take a lot of patience before returning: but it is probably the first real smile of the year for the Cannibal, 8 times world champion (6 in MotoGP). Last week, the 5 doctors who operated on him for 11 consecutive hours on December 4th have verified that everything is going well.

Recovery not earlier than 3-4 months

Of course, Marquez will not be able to be present at the tests scheduled in a month’s time in Qatar, much less at the first appointments of the 2021 season: if all goes well, it will be possible to see him again no earlier than 3 or 4 months. Meanwhile, the chances that Andrea Dovizioso could temporarily take his place are fading. The quotations of Stefen Bradl, who at the official Honda team up with Pol Espargarò, go up.
