Previously, the Spaniard had an accident, while participating in a warming up session a few hours before the race started. He was even rushed to a hospital in the Mataram area.
Not long after, Marquez returned to the circuit. However, it looks like there is a bandage on his right hand. « As we know, this weekend Marquez has fallen 3 times and the last one was quite severe. It’s not a good idea to take part in the race. So, we will miss the Indonesian GP, » explained Puig.
