9 months ago By Walter Thompson

The world of MotoGP is always filled with excitement and anticipation as fans eagerly await the races that showcase the skills and determination of some of the best riders in the world. However, as the 2023 MotoGP season progresses, there are concerns about the participation of certain riders in the upcoming Indian Grand Prix scheduled for September. Let’s take a closer look at five racers who might miss the MotoGP India Tour in 2023.

1. Enea Bastianini:

Enea Bastianini’s situation is perhaps the most certain among the five riders listed. He recently underwent surgery for a double ankle and wrist fracture following a crash in the Catalan Grand Prix. This unfortunate injury makes it clear that he will not be participating in the Indian Grand Prix.

2. Francesco Bagnaia:

While Francesco Bagnaia miraculously escaped significant injury in a highside incident during the Catalunya MotoGP race, the psychological impact of the crash might affect his participation in the Indian Grand Prix. Racing after such a harrowing experience can be mentally challenging.

3. Brad Binder:

Brad Binder, involved in the incident with Bagnaia, is facing potential psychological stress. Running over a fellow rider is an emotionally taxing experience, and Binder’s readiness to race might be influenced by the mental toll of the incident.

4. Marc Marquez:

The seasoned rider Marc Marquez has been grappling with health issues, particularly debilitating back pain, throughout the season. With a total of 18 falls this season, there are concerns about his form and overall well-being. Marquez might consider skipping the Indian Grand Prix to prioritize his health.

5. Marco Bezzecchi:

Marco Bezzecchi, riding for Mooney VR46, also suffered injuries during the Catalan GP crash, albeit minor ones. However, even minor injuries can impact a rider’s performance, and Bezzecchi’s participation in the upcoming race remains uncertain.

As the Indian Grand Prix approaches, fans and teams alike will be closely monitoring the status of these riders. MotoGP is not just physically demanding but also mentally challenging, and the well-being of the racers is of utmost importance. Whether these riders make it to the grid in India or not, one thing is for sure—the world of MotoGP is filled with surprises, and fans can expect an exhilarating race, with or without these five racers.
