Marquez to miss Algarve Grand Prix
This past Saturday Marc Marquez, while preparing for the Algarve Grand Prix with one of his standard off-road training sessions, suffered a fall that caused a slight head concussion. After a few days of rest at home and seeing that he was still unwell, today Marquez has been assessed by doctors in a medical check-up to evaluate his current status. As a precautionary measure, this coming weekend Marquez will not contest the Algarve Grand Prix.

Thought you were calling him a Fanny there

Fab Frog will be let loose.

There was a time Marquez seemed invincible, he crashed his brains out and suffered little consequence. Now everything is hurting him. Hope the guy is ok,the spectacle is diminished without him in the mix.

Nobody reckon on Oliviera repeating his home win then ? ..... or has the rest of the field figured out the track now they have decent data

He didn't really come back from his holidays,did he. Great form in the early season,then.....

Got to be worth a punt,I suppose.

FP1 tomorrow then. Let's see who's got the minerals

Of course not.... I know some of you may be wondering "what's going on with that for next year" now actually, so just for information i don't believe it'll be happening for us next year. @Welsh Muffin has a week in Croatia and i've got a week in Morzine with the boy. But i've certainly not given it up as an idea with Portimao for 2023. But there's just no realistic budget for us for next year for it.

I got up early to watch FP1 forgetting they're on UK time. Yawn.

The new onboard camera is awesome. Hodgson loves it

It's on rider's left shoulder and shows everything the rider is doing. Really cool

I think he may pee his pants with excitement actually. It's good though i agree.

I'm not usually a fan of onboard stuff,but that camera is the biz. I have no TV at the moment,due to building work,so I'm watch on my phone,even on a little screen it's ace. Pic quality is outstanding.

The left thumb fairly gets busy with the rear lowering device.

Like eveyrone else i saw that footage and thought Wow at both the quality and how much it shows of the inputs by Rins.

Wonder if they will be on everyone next year

For those who havent seen it yet, a little clip

It's looking like the Doocattys will be a force this weekend.

Away from home, tell me more

Lecuona is the fastest of the orangemen. Since he's getting the boot to WSBK,perhaps he's a point to prove?

Other highlights included Miller getting both wheels off the ground over the crest. Bit of the Roo in the boy!

It's just an amazing place it really is

Hodgson was waxing lyrical about it,he said everyone should try to get there for a trackday. Looks class even on the box.
