Here’s the latest I can share based on recent public coverage:
- Alex Marquez has had multiple crashes over the past couple of seasons, with notable incidents including a left-hand fracture that required surgery after the 2025 Dutch Grand Prix. This injury and its aftermath affected his participation and results in subsequent races.[1][2]
- In 2025 he also had a late-season crash in Catalonia and other incidents, but he continued racing afterward, often showing strong pace when fit.[3][5]
- The most recent mainstream roundups in 2025–2026 highlighted his recovery progress and occasional podium-contending pace when he was able to race, including a win for his brother Marc at Jerez that year which was a notable contrast in their fortunes.[7][8]
If you’d like, I can pull in more precise, up-to-date details (dates, race outcomes, and injury status) from current sources and summarize them succinctly. I can also provide a timeline of Alex Marquez’s injuries and comebacks with citations.
