Marc Marquez returns to the track for a private Repsol Honda MotoGP test in Jerez... and suffers a 'briefly dislocated his right shoulder'!
The reigning triple world champion and team-mate Dani Pedrosa had intended to test for two days, but rain prompted the cancellation of Friday's action.
Although the skies remained cloudy today, the track conditions were improved, allowing the Repsol Honda men to continue working on development of Honda's new 'big bang'-style engine.
Marquez fell at turn 7 in the afternoon. A check at the circuit's medical centre showed no further damage and he was able to complete most of his testing programme.
“Today was a productive day, as we were able to do many laps and to work on our bike well. We did most of the work we had planned, which is good, " Marquez said. "I crashed in the afternoon and dislocated my shoulder, but luckily it was nothing serious. Now I'll have some rest back at home and get ready for the next test, in Qatar.”
