It’s a small phrase that Marc Marquez dropped when he arrived in Portimao that revealed that as dazzling as he may seem, the eight-time world champion is not stainless. For a little over two years he has been accumulating physical problems, continues to fall heavily and ends every day in the hope that the beginning of the next will not reveal the return of double vision, while if he no longer speaks of his right arm, he still left his beloved Catalonia to settle in Madrid and confide in the team of doctors who rebuilt the tennis player Nadal. So yes, all that wears out the man, in his body and in his head…
Mark Marquez is a true example of tenacity, the physical embodiment of the notion of panache, and without a doubt one of the world’s top athletes showing how these individuals are far beyond mere mortals. But essentially he is human and everything he has been through since his accident at Jerez in 2020 weighs on him. And all the more so since nothing is going normally. The falls continue, the injuries return and the Honda, although revisited, is not there yet.

It’s a bit like having twice as much energy circulating in the body †
And he specifies: Tuttomotoriweb † but when the hard times come and last then you have to do your best, work hard because sometimes you don’t want to wake up and go to workouts but that’s exactly what you have to do and that’s what i do And he ends: so you should try to remember the good times to conquer them in the future †
To these comments we add those of: Danilo Petrucci secure GPOne who crossed paths with Mark Marquez in the paddock in Austin: I spoke to him on Saturday, he came to greet me after the first MotoAmerica race. He told me he was very tired, his eyes were red and you could see he was in a lot of pain† He told me he had arm problems and was not trained properly. In MotoGP everyone is good today, I understand that Marquez is the phenomenon. It is possible, but I don’t know if that is still the case today. In his mind he realized that he was no longer made of rubber. The Marquez from three years ago and today’s are different †
