JAKARTA - Marc Marquez is in a state of stress. Currently, the Spaniard is recovering from a broken rib injury.
In a slumped condition, the Repsol Honda racer was reluctant to comment on the issue of the continuation of his career with the Japanese factory team.
Marc Marquez's performance on the track has recently been declining. He had complained about the performance of the RC213V motorcycle.
Recently, the issue emerged that the rider's relationship with the factory team was strained. The issue arose along with Repsol Honda's boss, Alberto Puig Puig, who did not give a definite answer about Marquez's future.
However, Marquez did not want to bother. Currently, the focus is to recover and restore his mental condition.
"I'm at the lowest point right now and I don't think about it (the fate of his contract with Repsol Honda) right now. You can't decide the future when you're in a condition like this," Marc Marquez was quoted as saying by Speedweek on Monday, June 26.
"I have to heal my body and mentally for a month and a half. I was in the most difficult moment of my career."
Marc Marquez had received the spotlight regarding his careless performance in the MotoGP opening series in Portugal. After that incident his performance continued to decline.
The rider who dominated the MotoGP track from 2013 to 2019 was even difficult to compete for eight races this season. The Baby Alien has yet to win points from this season's MotoGP feature race, including in the last race in the Dutch MotoGP.
He even had to miss the race at the Assen Circuit because of his insufficient physical condition, including the broken ribs he experienced.
Marquez then explained the diagnosis of the medical team that had changed. At first, the rider was said to have only suffered a thin crack in the ribs, but the diagnosis turned into a fracture and it made his determination to withdraw from racing.
"Regarding ribs, it's sometimes difficult to understand whether it's a thin crack or if it's really broken. I've done the scan and they say it's just a thin crack," Marquez said earlier about the condition of the ribs that forced him to withdraw from the Dutch MotoGP.
"I've been saying I've been feeling pain in my ribs since Thursday. When Friday night his condition worsened, and even worse on Saturday after the sprint race. Around 8 and 9 pm the pain really got worse. I couldn't sleep and I decided not to take part in the race," he said.
