MARC MARQUEZ EXPLAINS WHY HE URGED HADJAR TO SKIP DUTCH GP

Marc Marquez has detailed why he urged Isack Hadjar to miss Formula 1’s Dutch Grand Prix at Zandvoort while recovering from a wrist injury. Hadjar, 21, had sustained the problem the week before during a gym session and was keen to race in the Netherlands despite the setback. However, Marquez said he advised him against taking part, and the decision was ultimately made after Hadjar discussed his condition with his team principal. With the wrist still healing, Hadjar chose to sit out the event rather than compete.
