A touch in the brake lever when he rolled next to Pedro Acosta ended with a violent fall of Álex Márquez during the GP of the Netherlands. From the moment of the fall, which was at high speed, the Pilot de Cervera noticed that it had hurt the hand, and this was confirmed by the first tests.
Before finishing the race and then even the career direction cataloged the accident as a fortuitous race set, it was already confirmed that Álex Márquez suffered the subcapital fracture of the second metacarpal of the left hand. For that reason he was declared not suitable, and for the same reason he has passed through the operating room in Madrid.
On the floor Álex Márquez! 😳😳😳😳
He wanted to return the overtaking to Pedro Acosta, they touched and the ’73’ went to the ground 😱

This was confirmed by the Gresini team, which after the operation issued a brief statement through social networks: «The surgical procedure by the subcapital fracture of the second metacarpal of the left hand was successfully completed. More updates will be shared on the recovery of @alexmarquez73 in the next few days ».
We will have to wait to know if Álex Márquez will be in Germany or not
Therefore, we will have to wait for the next few days to know if, first, he receives the approval from the doctors who treat him to prove in the GP of Germany in two weeks and, second, in case of being affirmative, to know if the medical body of the championship gives him the approval to be able to get on the motorcycle.

For now everything is an unknown and will depend on the evolution that Alex can take in the next few days. It must be remembered that, despite the fall and the “zero” in his locker, Álex Márquez continues in the second position of the general at 68 points of his brother, but with an advantage of 42 ahead of Bagnaia. This guarantees that whatever happens in the GP of Germany on two weekends, Álex will maintain the second position of the provisional classification.
