He also repeated his preference for avoiding surgery &#8211; understandable after his lengthy stays in hospital during an injury-stricken 2025 campaign.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Now I will try to rest and recover well from these two races that were so hard physically. And yeah, we move on to the [Asia-Pacific] tour in great shape&#8230; I think [not getting an operation] is good news because going to surgery is a big risk also,&#8221; added Martin.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think I&#8217;m able to take the maximum out of my condition and fight for this title.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Spaniard, who stretched out a 12-point advantage over <a href=\"https:\/\/www.motorsport.com\/driver\/marc-marquez\/17122\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Marc Marquez<\/a> after starting the weekend tied with his countryman for the lead of the championship, suggested surgery would be necessary at a more convenient point in the future.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;At the moment I won&#8217;t go to surgery,&#8221; he confirmed. &#8220;I will check when is the moment to do the surgery, I will understand what is my best option.
