The timeline of Marc Marquez’s career since 2020 has been defined by a cycle of severe injury followed by surgical intervention. While he reclaimed the world title in 2025, his 2026 season has been derailed by a “double surgery” that addresses both a fresh fracture and a lingering nerve issue from 2025.
Marc Marquez Medical & Surgery Timeline (2020–2026)
Between the 2020 Jerez crash and the recent 2026 French GP, Marquez has undergone at least six major surgeries and missed approximately 40 Grands Prix.
| Period | Body Part Affected | Major Procedures |
| 2020-2022 | Right Humerus (Arm) | 4 Surgeries (including Mayo Clinic rotation) |
| 2021-2022 | Eyes / Vision | Non-surgical recovery (Diplopia) |
| 2023 | Right Thumb | 1 Surgery |
| 2025-2026 | Right Shoulder | 1 Surgery (Nerve decompression/Hardware removal) |
| 2026 | Right Foot | 1 Surgery (Fifth metatarsal stabilization) |
Medical Note: The 2026 shoulder surgery revealed that Marquez was racing through a “compressed radial nerve” all season, which explains the mysterious arm weakness he reported following the Jerez round earlier this year.
