The 2014 MotoGP World Championship has remained extremely successful for the Repsol Honda Team, as its star rider Marc Marquez won all four races of the season. The best thing that had happened for Honda team is that Marquez’s teammate DaniPedrosa was also able to show solid performance in the current season. The dynamic rider managed to reach the podium in all four Grand Prix and now he has successfully emerged from arm pump surgery. Pedrosa underwent the knife on Tuesday May 6, 2014 to address the problem with is right forearm. The operation was performed by Dr. Xavier Mirat the QuironDexeus University Hospitalin Barcelona.
Pedrosa went for the surgery after he started feeling arm pump effects a few days ago. Now after the successful operation Dani will take a few days off in order to get fully fit before the fifth round of 2014 MotoGP that will take place in France on Sunday, May 18, 2014. The 28-year old Spanish rider has a great run in the 2014 season, as he was one of the front leaders in all four rounds of the MotoGP. The solid performance from Pedrosa showed that he had started the season from where he left in 2013, as he reached the rostrum in Malaysia in last October.
Dani is also right behind his teammate Marquez in overall standings with 72 points. The Honda rider finished third in Qatar, second in Austin and Argentina, while in Jerez, he again managed to cross the chequered flag in third place. In fact, before undergoing the surgery, Pedrosa took part in the first post-race test session in Jerez on Monday, May 5, 2014 along with his partner Marquez. The two Honda riders had a busy time in that test session, as they worked really hard on testing programmes that were conceived by HRC.
During the session, Marquez focused on the electronics of his bike and also tried out different suspensions. Pedrosa, on the other hand, also tested various suspensions apart from bringing changes to the chassis of his machine. According to Dani, they had made all these changes to gain better balance so they can give better performance in the upcoming races. Pedrosa also said that though they had done some good testing in Jerez, but they will only be able to confirm whether the changes are positive or not only after arriving at La Mans in France.
Adding to it, the Spaniard said that they have to see whether the changes that they had made in Jerez can acclimatize on different track and weather condition, as it was quite hot in Spain. Whereas in France the temperature is pretty cold, so they will see how well the tyres will do in Le Mans, said Pedrosa. His colleague Marquez was also pretty pleased with the testing session, as according to him they were able to draw some positive conclusions from the session.
