Former MotoGP king Marc Marquez will return to competition at this weekend's Austin race after being given the all-clear by medics.

Doctors have cleared the Repsol Honda man for a return to Grand Prix competition after his fall in warm-up at the Indonesian GP and subsequent diplopia diagnosis. Before heading for the US, he confirmed his feelings and vision on a CBR600RR around the Alcarras circuit.

"Of course I am very happy to be back, it’s a great feeling to return and especially to do it at one of my favourite tracks," said Marquez.

"No matter the situation, I really enjoy riding in Texas and have incredible memories there. We have some work to do after missing two races and the whole Argentina weekend so I am not here to set one target at the moment.

"There’s many things to do and consider, but the important thing is that we are back on the bike this weekend.”
