The revelation was told in his Amazon Prime Video documentary ‘Marc Marquez: All In’ where his struggles with injury, his career-saving operation and his recovery are shown i🐈n harrowing detail.

At the height of Marquez’s fitness difficulties last year, before he stepped away from MotoGP to g❀o under the knife, he endured a painful in♔cident at home.

“It was Monday at 7.30am,” he said. “Every 🙈day, I walked the dogs on an empty stomach for 45 minutes.

“I prie💯d open a sliding door - I felt a crack and said ‘damn’. I looked at it, and iꦬt had a bump. I said: ‘What is going on?’

“I woke up [my physio Carlos J. Garcia] and my brother. That’s when I started getting dizzy. I lay down on the bed 🦩and he said ‘let me see’.

“I said: ‘I doubt I broke the metal implant’.

“He grabbed my bone and it went ‘crack’. He went pale and said: ‘Let’s go🔯’. We 🌼went straight to hospital.”

A fourth opeꦍration on his devastated arm relieved the pain that Marquez raced with in the opening part of last season.

He has also struggled with diplopia - an eye i𒁏ssue causing double-vision - during his two-year injury nightm💟are.

The Repsol Honda rider described: “Diplopia is specifically.. Well, in this case I’d see a head here. And another head here. It isn’t l💧ike ‘which eye isn’t working?’ No.

“If I covered one eye, I could see perfectly. But when both eyes were open there was slight deviation. I don’t know, one degree. O🦋ne degree far away keeps getting worse.”

Marquez is hoping the worst of his physical traumasꦉ are🦂 behind him and, if Honda can deliver a bike better than last season’s sub-par machine, he will fight for a seventh premier class title.
