Gresini Ducati rider Alex Marquez is determined to compete in the upcoming German Grand Prix despite suffering a hand injury in a recent MotoGP race in the Netherlands.
Having undergone surgery post-crash, Marquez’s team confirmed his intentions to participate at the Sachsenring, pending a fitness check on Thursday.
Currently second to his brother Marc in the MotoGP championship standings by 68 points, Marquez’s goal in Germany is to maintain his position against Francesco Bagnaia.
Another injured rider, Luca Marini, is set to return after missing three races following a testing crash at Suzuka, marking a comeback following positive results from a recent Brno test.
However, Somkiat Chantra will be sidelined for the next two races due to a training accident, with Takaaki Nakagami filling in at LCR in the Czech GP.
