The MotoGP rider Jorge Martin has revealed his fears regarding a possible surgery to address the arm pump issue he suffered during the San Marino Grand Prix. In a race where he was leading, his performance dropped dramatically, finishing in a disappointing fifth place.
Currently, Martin is preparing for the Austrian Grand Prix, where he hopes to assess his condition before making a decision about the operation. With the upcoming appointment in Japan just a month away, the 2024 MotoGP champion expresses concern over the recovery time that may be required, which could interfere with his competition.
When commenting on the potential impact of surgery, Martin admitted that the unknown makes him feel uneasy. He acknowledged that he has negative memories from a previous season, which was marked by multiple injuries, causing him to be more cautious about making decisions regarding his health.
After a training session in Austria, Martin achieved the fifth-best time, but expressed that his initial confidence about not needing surgery is now affected by his previous experiences. Regardless, he remains determined to compete at the highest level while taking the time to consider his options.
