Injured Mir forced out of San Marino GP The latest tests show bone and ligament damage to the right ankle which has forced the Suzuki rider into 15 days of recovery and rest Team Suzuki Ecstar’s Joan Mir suffered a terrifying crash on the opening lap of the Austrian Grand Prix last Sunday at the Red Bull Ring circuit. The first tests and X-rays performed at the circuit medical centre directly after the crash revealed a small fracture in the talus bone of his right ankle. Having returned home on Sunday night, the Mallorcan underwent further tests in Andorra. Yesterday, Mir visited Dr Juan Garcias at Hospital Juaneda Miramar in Palma de Mallorca where he underwent a CT scan and an extra MRI as the doctors wanted to rule out bone damage to the left talus head as well as the right. Despite issuing a more encouraging diagnosis than expected, Dr Juan Garcias found ligament and bone damage on the right side and he recommended caution, advising Mir to take absolute rest for the next 15 days. This means Joan will not be able to race in Misano. “The patient had an injury to the talocalcaneal ligaments with a small bone avulsion. A stable tibiofibular joint, but with bone contusion on the head of the talus. In this case, the tibiofibular joint was stable and there was no total instability in the navicular bone. Conclusion: talus-calcaneal-navicular ligamentous injuries with instability grade I – II” Mir will undergo another round of scans to assess the injuries following his 15 day rest period, in order to determine the course of treatment and, if eligible, to try ride at Motorland for the Grand Prix of Aragon. In the forthcoming days Suzuki and Dorna will evaluate the best solution for Misano. Joan Mir: “After undergoing several tests, the doctors have advised me to take 15 days’ rest and another evaluation after that period. Unfortunately, I will miss the Misano race, but I am confident I can return in Aragon. I want to thank Dainese and AGV for protecting me and avoiding a more serious injury after the hard crash I had on Sunday. It's been a tough season, but I'm convinced that we'll come back stronger to bring more good moments to my team and to all of you who support me". Livio Suppo - Team Manager: “I’m very sorry for Joan. Problems continue to arise during this difficult season. In any case, we should remain upbeat. The crash was really big and in the end the injury is a serious one, but it could have been worse, so let's be positive and see how he will recover in the next 15 days to hopefully be ready for Aragón".

Puig: "Very important" if Marquez can ride at Misano Test The Repsol Honda Team Manager discussed the importance of having the eight-time World Champion on the bike soon with DAZN In an interview with Spanish broadcaster DAZN, Repsol Honda Team Manager Alberto Puig has discussed the importance of having Marc Marquez (Repsol Honda Team) back on the bike, potentially as soon as the Misano Test, if the latest check-up on his right arm is positive. The important check-up takes place at the end of August. If given the all-clear, Marc Marquez will be able to ramp up his training and take his recovery process to the next stage, which is great news for everyone – especially for the eight-time World Champion and HRC. But will it be possible for the number 93 to be back on the bike as soon as the crucial Misano Test? SURVEY: HELP SHAPE THE FUTURE OF MotoGP™! That’s the question no one knows the answer to yet. However, Puig is hopeful that can be the case as it would be “very important” for Marquez to get some laps under his belt and give some vital feedback on items Honda will be rigorously testing ahead of the 2023 campaign. “Well, the doctor's expectations or what he told us at the time... They've been following the timings and he said 'on August 25, 25-26, we'll do a CAT scan. If the bone is fine, go ahead'. So, I don't know, we'll see how the bone is when the CT scan is done,” said Puig. “I personally think he won't be there for the race, but if he can be there for the test, and even if it's not to be doing a 100 laps a day test, but if he can do four outings to say 'hey, no, or yes, it looks like this...' it will be very important. If he's not at the Misano test, it will be more of the same, because it will be a long time without Marc at the test. So, it will be complicated.” With the two-day Misano Test just two weeks away, time isn’t on Marquez’s side. Speaking to motogp.com in Madrid earlier in August, Marquez stressed that his recovery won’t be rushed. Coming back too soon isn’t an option, because this is the final chance for him to be comfortable racing in MotoGP™ again. But when he’s able to come back, he will. And like Marquez said in Austria, part of his recovery will be riding his RC213V again – you can’t be a fully fit MotoGP™ rider without actually riding a MotoGP™ bike. So why is it so crucial for Marquez to ride at the Misano Test if he’s given the all-clear by his medical team, and not make a comeback later in the year? Puig spoke about this too, explaining Honda will have to carry on “a bit blind” if the Misano Test is too soon because the two days act as a key stepping stone for the much-anticipated Valencia Test. “Normally, the Misano test is very important to prepare a 'prototype' for Valencia. If he's not there, we'll go as we've been going so far, a bit blind, honestly. We have had two riders. In these past cases we have had to rely a bit on Pol (Espargaro) and then on the test rider, but of course, the one who knows this bike best from experience... A rider knows a bike by the time he has been on it and by the quality of the races he has done,” continued Puig. “I mean, Jorge (Lorenzo) when he was riding the Yamaha, he knew it perfectly well and he knew how to push it to the limit because he won races. If he had finished 14th every race, he would know the bike differently. And Marc has known the bike very well because he has been winning a lot of races. It's not that the other riders don't understand the bike, don't get me wrong, of course they understand it, but the one who really understands it is the one who has won more times with that bike and knows it. If he's not there, it's not an excuse, but it makes our job a bit more difficult.” We’ll find out how Marc Marquez’s latest check-up goes very soon. If it’s good news, which we all hope it is, then the next question will be when we’ll see him on the bike again.

translated from marca.com Honda wans Marc Marquez already in the Misano test Puig believes it would be "a problem" if he were not Marc Márquez, watching MotoGP in Austria. REPSOL HONDA JAIME MARTIN Updated 22/08/2022 - 17:42 CEST Austria, another disappointment. Honda's umpteenth disaster: "They're crushing us" The reappearance of Marc Márquez may be much closer than almost everyone could imagine. Even more so after hearing the eight-time champion himself say this weekend in Austria that he aspires to run "a race" in the remainder of the year. In Honda they even put a date, although they base it on the fact that everything is going well and what the doctor who operated on him for the fourth time, Joaquín Sánchez-Sotelo, assured them. It was Alberto Puig himself, director of Repsol Honda, who in addition to analyzing the delicate situation of HRC in DAZN, in space 360 with Jorge Lorenzo and Carlos Checa with Ernest Riveras, launched almost an SOS to the ilerdense. I would not reach the grand prix, from September 2 to 4, but perhaps the test, 6 and 7 of that month. "It would be a problem if I wasn't for the Misano test. The terms have been fulfilled and the doctor told us that on August 25 they would do a CT scan: 'If the bone is fine, it is good'. Show me. I think he won't be there for the race, but he can be for the test, and even if it's not to do 100 laps a day, but he can make four starts to say: 'Hey, yes; that no or that seems that such'. Well, it's very important. If it's not on the Misano test, uff, it will be more of the same. We have not had him in the tests for a long time and it will be complicated. In Valencia, what is said from Misano is done. If it is not we will go as before, blindly. It's not that the other riders don't understand the bike, but the one who really understands it is the one who has won the most times with that bike. If he is not there, it is not an excuse, but it makes our work difficult," she said. Break with Alzamora Puig did not want to go too far to assess whether Marc Márquez, and Álex, have broken with Emilio Alzamora as a representative, as published by El Periódico and that did not want to value the younger brother: "I have nothing to say about it." Although according to various sources it is a fact and MARCA can assure that the new one will be Jaime 'Jimmy' Martínez, currently in Red Bull Spain, and that he has already traveled with the eldest to Spielberg. "Anyone is within their rights to seek the best for themselves: I want to live here, with this or this one. Pilots make decisions based on what they feel. It must be respected. In your case, for the years of relationship, it will be understood as one more phase. We all adapt to things. I don't think it's anything super... If he has decided like this, it will be because he believes that this will go well in general," Alberto said.

If yer still with me here, thanks. It's taking me a while to get back and be sorted. Hat-trick hero: Bagnaia beats Quartararo by 0.4s in Austria It’s three wins in a row for the Italian as Quartararo runs him close at the Red Bull Ring For the first time in his career Francesco Bagnaia (Ducati Lenovo Team) is a hat-trick hero after leading from start to finish in a tense CryptoDATA Motorrad Grand Prix von Österreich. In the end, Pecco’s win advantage was just 0.4s to World Championship leader Fabio Quartararo (Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP™) who produces a phenomenal ride to finish P2 ahead of third place Jack Miller (Ducati Lenovo Team). Three in a row for Pecco, Quartararo sublime In front of 92,000 jubilant fans the lights went out for the MotoGP™ race and it was Bagnaia who grabbed the holeshot from Enea Bastianini (Gresini Racing MotoGP™), Miller slotted into P3 with Jorge Martin (Prima Pramac Racing) holding station in P4. Quartararo got a decent start but at the end of the first lap, Maverick Viñales (Aprilia Racing) passed the Frenchman to demote the Championship leader to P6. Aleix Espargaro (Aprilia Racing), meanwhile, didn’t get a good getaway after his holeshot device didn’t engage but the number 41 recovered to P7 at the beginning of the second lap. Elsewhere, Joan Mir (Team Suzuki Ecstar) crashed out at Turn 4 on the first lap and it was later confirmed the 2020 World Champion suffered ligament damage in his foot. The leading Ducati quartet quickly found themselves over a second clear of Viñales, who had stretched his advantage over Quartararo to half a second. It wasn’t line astern in the lead group though. Miller overtook Bastianini at Turn 3 and Martin then had a successful bite at the cherry, only for Bastianini to snap back at Turn 1 on Lap 5. Viñales then made a mistake down at Turn 4, the Spaniard dropped behind Aleix Espargaro and Johann Zarco (Prima Pramac Racing), before drama unfolded further up the road. SURVEY: HELP SHAPE THE FUTURE OF MotoGP™! Bastianini looked like he had a problem going into Turn 3. Zarco did an excellent job of taking avoiding action as the Italian slowed right down through no fault of his own, before the polesitter then ran straight into the gravel a few seconds later at Turn 4. Was there an issue? It certainly looked like it as Bastianini was then forced to retire. This saw Bagnaia and Miller open a one second advantage over Martin, Quartararo was a further 1.3s away in P4 with Espargaro and Viñales P5 and P6. Martin was digging deep and on Lap 11 of 28, the Spaniard was right with his Ducati stablemates. Quartararo was still 1.4s behind the third of the GP22s and had main title rival Espargaro 1.1s adrift, as Bagnaia set a personal best lap to gain a 0.6s lead over Miller. On Lap 14, Quartararo set his personal best lap of the race and the reigning Champion was now 0.6s behind Martin. The latter made a mistake at the chicane with 12 laps to go and was forced to give the position up to Quartararo, but did Martin then have a problem? He raised his hand coming out of Turn 4 to signal he might have but he was back at full speed soon enough. The situation with eight laps to go was this: Bagnaia boasted a 0.9s lead over teammate Miller, who was now hearing Quartararo’s YZR-M1 swarming all over the back of his GP22 tail. Luca Marini (Mooney VR46 Racing Team) picked off Aleix Espargaro for P5, and Espargaro was coming under pressure from Zarco and Alex Rins (Team Suzuki Ecstar). Martin was still in P4, 0.6s away from Quartararo. That 0.6s gap soon became 0.3s with Martin now the fastest rider on track. With four laps to go, a sensational move at Turn 2B saw Quartararo carve his way past Miller up into P2. Miller just held off Martin for P3 as Quartararo saw Bagnaia 1.5s up the road at the beginning of Lap 26 of 28. Starting Lap 27, Quartararo had clawed 0.2s back and starting the last lap, it was under a second! Martin, up the inside of Miller, crashed unhurt at Turn 1 which gave Miller an easy ride home to P3. But could Quartararo do anything to stop Bagnaia from winning? No, not quite, although he wasn’t far away. Pecco took victory by just 0.4s to make it a hat-trick and reduce the gap to the Frenchman to 44 points, with Miller on the podium again in P3. Aleix Espargaro grinds out a P6 Fourth place for Marini is the Italian’s best result in the premier class to date, he eventually held off Zarco in fifth by less than half a second. 2.4s further behind was Aleix Espargaro who sees his disadvantage to Quartararo grow to 32 points heading to Misano, but on a tough weekend for the Spaniard, it could have been worse from P9 on the grid. Brad Binder (Red Bull KTM Factory Racing) gave KTM a P7 on their home patch, it was another solid Sunday rider for the South African, as he and Rins were separated by a tenth on the line. Marco Bezzecchi (Mooney VR46 Racing Team) claimed P9 ahead of Martin in 10th, the latter able to remount after his last lap tumble at Turn 1. Fabio Di Giannantonio (Gresini Racing MotoGP™), Miguel Oliveira (Red Bull KTM Factory Racing), Viñales, Alex Marquez (LCR Honda Castrol) and Andrea Dovizioso (WithU Yamaha RNF MotoGP™ Team) rounded out the points positions at the Red Bull Ring. Next up: Misano! The title race pendulum is definitely swinging towards Bagnaia at this moment in time, and coming up next is the Italian’s home race at the Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli – a track he knows like the back of his hand. Quartararo though extends his lead, but the Frenchman, Espargaro and Bagnaia are now split by just 44 points. Game on.
