After complaints of pain in his torso, a medical helicopter was deployed in order to take Sainz Sr to a local hospital, but in a surprising turn 🌸of events the 60-year-old demanded that the helicopter turn around in order for him to cont𒅌inue the race.

Marquez has been following the 2023 Dakar Rally and spoke about the ♌possibility of competing in the race one day: "Of course I'm following the Dakar," Marquez told Teledeporte.es. "I like everything about the engine.

"On Carlos Sainz Sr: He’s sick from the engine, from adrenaline. Not only the Dakar, of all motorsports. Precise details, it's 🐭his life. 

"Why not see him next year at 61 y🍬ears old. If you see yourself with strength... the mind is everything. He had speed, and I think he was the fastest on the track.

"What is clear is that for me, not on a motorcycle, it would hurt me. Obviously you sign up for a bombing. The Dakar gives a lot of respect,𒅌 there is prior preparation. And we are competitive, I don't like to lose. Maybe in the future I would go to compete, but not just to finish the race."

Marquez also claimed that having a co-pilot talking to him wo⛄uld be a problem: "It is what would cost me the most, to have someone next to me talking,” added the MotoGP star, who 🉐discussed such a scenario with Sainz Sr. 

"He was preparing for the race as if it were hi𒈔s first Dakar. And I asked him about that, he told me that it is his hand and his right foot, that the gas is t⛎he co-pilot. It would be hard for me to drive and listen to someone at the same time."
