MARQUEZ

Birthplace : Cervera DOB : 1993-02-17
Height : 169 cm Weight : 65 kg
Not even a seriously damaged left shoulder at the end of 2018 could hold Marquez back in 2019 he amassed twelve wins and six second places from 19 races . That , added to his five previous MotoGP™ crowns and one in Moto2™ and 125cc™ , made it seem only a matter of time until he caught and surpassed great rival Valentino Rossi ’ s records . But a crash in 2020 ’ s first race broke his upper right arm . That put him out of all that year , and he made a heroic comeback at the third race of 2021 . Despite being far from peak fitness , he scored three race wins and was contesting fourth in the championship when an innocuous training crash damaged his right eye and led to another anxious winter of recovery . A fourth serious operation on his right arm at the start of June saw him miss many races . But a stellar recovery meant he was present at the Misano test and could be poised for a stunning racing return before the end of the year .
