Alex Marquez, who fractured a vertebra in a heavy crash at the Catalan GP in May and returned at the Dutch GP in June, admitted that even after a four-week summer break, 'one hour is too long' before he reaches his limit. He finished seventh on day one of the British GP, saying he still felt pain in the morning and that a crash that big needs more time.

Not being back to full strength after a fractured vertebra is something the rider himself knows better than anyone in the paddock. Still, coming back to seventh after the summer break shows real underlying pace. Being upfront that 'an hour is tough' is exactly the kind of honest call that stops him overdoing it.

Just the fact he's racing at all after a spinal fracture is wild.

Saying an hour is his limit — hope people actually listen to that.

Coming back this fast after a fracture is genuinely impressive.

Impressive, sure, but he's clearly not at 100% — don't push him.
