The doctor who operated on Marc Marquez to save his MotoGP career admits he 'didn't sleep a wink' before the operation. Interview:
After three operations allowed him to return to action for the 2021 campaign, it became clear that his arm still wasn't right and he was being severely limited on the bike.
The person in charge of preventing Marquez from hanging up his overalls at the age of 29 was Doctor Joaquin Sanchez-Sotelo, a surgeon at the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota, with whom Motorsport.com's Spanish language sister website had the opportunity to chat this week.Photo by: Repsol MediaDr Joaquin Sanchez-Sotelo:
"In the first instance I advised him to give himself a few more months of margin, to try to improve as much as he could. After that time, he told me that he still couldn't control the bike when cornering, and that he also had problems when braking. He couldn't lock his arm, it was going inwards. Marc sent me a CAT scan of both arms. Thanks to 3D printing, we reproduced his two humeri in plastic; the left one and the injured one, which had considerable rotation.
