JAKARTA - The Spanish racer, Marc Marquez, again experienced diplopia after a terrible accident in the Mandalika MotoGP warm-up session, Sunday, March 20. Although the diplopia this time was not as bad as before, many began to think that Marquez's career would end soon.
Reportedly, Marquez will undergo further examinations to ensure the condition of his eyes. If it gets worse, it is not impossible that hanging the helmet is the choice that the holder of the six MotoGP titles has taken.
Repsol Honda will still be waiting for the latest conditions from its flagship racer. The Japanese factory team certainly hopes that Marquez is not entangled with a serious illness.
However, some media believe that Repsol Honda is starting to look for other alternatives, namely selecting a suitable racer to replace Marquez later.
Reported by Tuttomotoriweb, there are four names that could be Honda's future racers. The first is Fabio Quartararo. Until now, the French rider has not extended his contract.
However, Yamaha MotoGP certainly doesn't want to lose the 2020 world champion. The Yamaha factory team manager, Massimo Meregalli, has stated that Quartararo's contract is a top priority.
Joan Mir's future at Suzuki Ecstar is also in question. Mir, who won the 2019 MotoGP, reportedly wanted to find a new challenge.
Jorge Martin is also considered suitable to fill the seat of the Honda rider. This Pramac Ducati rider has the ability and mental ability.
In MotoGP 2020, he managed to get on the podium four times with the satellite team. One of them is the victory in MotoGP Styria.
Another name is Enea Bastianini, the Gresini Racing rider who made a surprise at the start of the 2022 MotoGP season. The Italian rider won the first race at the Qatar Circuit and temporarily topped the riders' standings.
Promotion to the factory team will certainly be interesting for Bastianini. However, Honda will definitely face fierce resistance from Ducati who do not want to lose their future asset.
However, Repsol Honda did not want to be careless. They will still be waiting for news from Marquez, who is under contract until 2024.
