- MotoGP champion Marc Marquez will return to racing.
- At this weekend’s Aragon Grand Prix after.
- Recovering from surgery on a shoulder injury.
Marc Marquez underwent surgery on a problematic right arm in June, missing the previous six races as a result.
However, the Spaniard completed two days of testing in Misano, giving the team and himself hope that he would soon be able to compete again.
Since breaking his arm at the Spanish Grand Prix in 2020, Marquez has struggled and undergone numerous surgery. He hadn’t participated in a race since the May Italian Grand Prix at Mugello.
“Since undergoing a successful fourth operation on his right humerus, the eight-time world champion has followed the strict guidance of his medical team in order to facilitate a full recovery,” Honda said in a statement.
“After numerous check-ups, consultations and tests, all involved are satisfied with the recovery made and the #93 will now take the next step in his rehabilitation – returning to competition.”
Marquez also shared a video on social media in which he announced his eagerly anticipated return while beaming from ear to ear.
