Statements Marc Marquez Repsol Honda Team Jerez MotoGP 2020

“Yesterday I arrived at the circuit after the operation in Barcelona and passed the medical tests in the afternoon. It means I can ride, and after discussions with Honda we decided to start directly on Saturday. I slept quite well, obviously I feel some pain, but we had physio sessions with my physio which were quite good for me. With the team we have set ourselves only one objective, which is to see our feeling tomorrow in FP3. Let's see what the arm looks like and decide our next target from there. Thank you all for the support, these have been difficult days but with the support of HRC, the Repsol Honda Team, all the sponsors and fans who love the sport just like me, it seems easier."
