The fracture in his right foot resulted from a crash on the penultimate lap of the Le Mans sprint, leading to his absence from the upcoming races.
In addition to his foot surgery, Marquez will also have surgery on his shoulder due to a damaged screw irritating a nerve, causing riding difficulties and unexpected crashes in 2026.
