Marc Marquez has suffered a relapse of the Diplopia that forced him the miss the end of the 2021 MotoGP season, putting him in doubt for the Argentinean Grand Prix.

The Honda rider was forced to miss last weekend’s Indonesian GP after picking up a concussion as a result of a fearsome high-side crash during Sunday morning’s warm-up session ahead of the contest, the Spaniard electing to head home to Spain in order to try and recover in time for the Argentinean GP in two weeks time.

His participation for the first American encounter of the year could now be in doubt though after also being diagnosed with another episode of Diplopia having suffered problems with double-vision on the way home from Indonesia.

According to a statement released on Tuesday morning by his Honda team, Marquez was forced to take an emergency trip to the Hospital Clínic de Barcelona in Spain with his “trusted ophthalmologist Dr. Sánchez Dalmau” as a result of his vision difficulties, the six-time premier class champion subsequently diagnosed once again with Diplopa.

“During the journey back to Spain, Marc Marquez began to experience discomfort with his vision and upon his arrival in Barcelona on Monday, he had an emergency visit to the Hospital Clínic de Barcelona with his trusted ophthalmologist, Dr. Sánchez Dalmau,” said Honda’s statement.

“After an examination, he confirmed a relapse in the diplopia that the rider suffered last November.

“This morning, the Spanish rider visited his medical team, led by Dr. Samuel Antuña, at the Ruber Internacional Hospital in Madrid, where Marquez underwent a general medical check-up to evaluate all the bruises caused by the crash and a brain MRI.

“This has reconfirmed that he did not suffer any other injuries.”

Marquez’s problems with Diplopia originated after a horrific Moto2 crash back in 2011 that nearly ended his racing career, though he managed to evade further problems until his motocross training incident ahead of last year’s Algarve GP.  

After missing the final two races of the campaign, he managed to recover sufficiently to take part in pre-season testing before finishing fifth in the Qatar GP.
