Judging by the height of Marquez’s body, many people are worried about The Baby Alien who is still having problems with his right arm and shoulder. Even so, Marquez is fine so he can return to the Honda garage. Marquez even got fourth position with a time of 1 minute 33,560.
Even so, Marquez is still not happy with this accident. Because, it could give Marquez a new injury when his right arm and shoulder have not fully recovered. He demanded Honda to make repairs.
“In free practice 2, I raced well. I pushed in some parts of the circuit, but at that point and in that corner I didn’t cross the line, because there was another rider (Joan Mir from Suzuki Ecstar) in front of me and I did the same, as he (Mir) did or even slower,” said Marquez, quoted from Crash, Saturday (26/6/2021).
“However, I have spoken a lot to HRC (Honda Racing Corporation). We can’t have an accident like this. In such corners, we are against electronics. (In fact), electronics are there to avoid this type of accident,” he said.
Meanwhile, Marquez brings good provisions to the 2021 Dutch MotoGP. He has just won the 2021 German MotoGP race at the Sachsenring Circuit, Sunday 20 June 2021.
Marquez is also trying to get positive results again in the 2021 Dutch MotoGP race. The ninth series race will take place at the Assen Circuit, Sunday 27 June 2021, evening WIB.
