Marc Marquez’s admission that his “mental health” would have suffered by stayin🐬g at Honda has been discussed.

Marquez’s years of injury, crashes and misery on an underperfo꧃rming bike ended this year by a switch to Gresini Ducati.

He has immediately returned to the podium and fighting for🗹 race wins, and is considering a tit𒁃le challenger by most within the paddock.

Marquez had previously revealed a conversation with Honda: “I said to them ‘maybe I will do one more year here then finish my career because🥀 my mental health would be finished’.”

Suzi Perry reacted to that remark on TNT Sports: “After two events, he said ‘I love it, I enjoy, I’m back, I want a factory rid﷽e’.

“The rebirth of Marquez? It does lo﷽ok like it’s happ🔥ening.

“If you look beyond the c♏rashes, you can see that putting him on a factory bike with the support network, you’re looking at another world championship.”

Sylvain Guintoli replied: “Yes. He’s back.

“The motivation, you can see it in his eyes, the difference from last ওyear to this year.

“As a rider, it’s knowing that you’re going to be in the mix - you’ve got the weapon, t💯he package, the team behind you.

“You can fight for the podium or the win.

“It transforms your whole life because, as a💙 rider, you live it and breathe it.

“When you wake up in the m𝓀orning you are💞 thinking about your next race.

“It’s diffi♉cult to explain to people who don’t do it, because you are literally obsessed.

“Obsessed with your performance and winning.

“It’s such a great 𒆙feeling, that once you’ve tasted it, you want it again and again꧃ and again.

“So, when you wake up kn🔜owing deep-down that you can’t win?

“No matter how much you train, h🎐ow many risks you take, how many crashes, how many bones to break…

“If you knowඣ that you can’t achieve it, it is depressing.

“That’s what Marc was talking about.

“He was talking about men🐠tal health and not feeling 🌳well.

“Now, he’s fine. You can see it in his attitude and in his interview, and the way he goes around the paddo🔯ck.

“The spark is back and it’s great to see.”
