The signs the old Marquez is really back to trouble his MotoGP rivals
OPINION: Marc Marquez has completed the first three races of his MotoGP comeback from a fourth major operation on his right arm and has already achieved more points than Honda scored in his absence. While there is still some way to go before he is ready to win races, there have been plenty of signs to suggest that the old Marquez really is back
The fourth major operation Marc Marquez had on the right arm he badly broke in 2020 was very much the final frontier: it either worked or it didn't, but as far as the six-time MotoGP world champion was concerned his career wouldn't have lasted much longer without it.
In a truly gruesome operation, his right humerus bone was re-broken and then rotated 30 degrees back to its original position after it had shifted as much from three prior operations across 2020.
