Marc Marquez’s 2021 MotoGP World Championship was officially finished when the media announced that he would not compete in the season-ending Valencia MotoGP, as well as the regular post-season testing that follows.
After suffering a slight concussion during off-road training in the lead-up to the Portimao event, the Spaniard elected to sit out the Algarve MotoGP over the weekend on doctors’ recommendation.
With Honda’s evasive reaction and Marquez’s silence fueling rumours that his issues are more serious, the six-time MotoGP World Champion has now revealed that his arm injury has been worsened.
The reappearance of an eye ailment from nearly a decade ago, which he felt would have significant repercussions for his racing career before reaching MotoGP, is more troubling for him.

In 2011, Marquez suffered an uncommon eye injury at the Malaysian Moto2 race, forcing him to miss the final two races and handing the title to Stefan Bradl.

Marquez still considers his eye injury his most serious to date, even after his season-ending arm injury in 2020.
