Marc Marquez’s admission that his “mental health” would have suffered by staying at Honda has💟 been di🐼scussed.

Marquez’s years of injury, crashes and misery on an underp꧑erforming bi༺ke ended this year by a switch to Gresini Ducati.

He has immediately returned to the podium and fight꧒ing for race wins, and is considering a title challenger by most within the paddock.

Marquez had previously revealed a conversation with Honda: “I s🤪aid 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 ꩵon TNT Spo𓆉rts: “After two events, he said ‘I love it, I enjoy, I’m back, I want a factory ride’.

“♛The rebirth of Marquez? It does look like it’s happening.

ꦓ“If you look beyond the crashes, 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.

“Th🔥e motivation, you can see it in his eyes,𒊎 the difference from last year to this year.

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

“You can fight for the podium or the win.

“It tr🍎ansf♌orms your whole life because, as a rider, you live it and breathe it.

“When you wake up in the morning you are thinking about yo🏅ur next race.

“It’s difficult to explain to people who don’t do it, because you are literally o🧔bsessed.

“Obsessed with your performance and winning.

“It’s such a great feeliꩵng, that once you’ve tasted it, you want it ag🥂ain and again and again.

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

“No matter how much you train, how many risks you take, how many crashes, how many bone👍s to break…

“If you know t🤪hat you can’t achieve it, it is depres🦄sing.

“That’s what Marc was talking about.

“He was talking about mental he♈alth and not feeling 💝well.

“Now, he’s fine. You can see it in his attitude and in his interview, and th🔜e way he goes around the paddock.

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