Marc Marquez has dislocated his left shoulder in a crash in morning warm up at Silverstone. The championship leader crashed over the bumps going into Vale, falling heavily on his shoulder. He was then taken to the medical center, where he was diagnosed with a dislocated shoulder. The team at the medical center put his shoulder back in place, and passed Marquez fit to race.

Marquez' crash was one of a series that happened in the cold conditions of warm up. Though it was bright and sunny, a cold wind meant temperatures were very low. Cal Crutchlow had crashed a few moments earlier in exactly the same spot, and the marshalls were just trying to clear his bike out of the way when Marquez went down. The Spaniard's bike ran straight at Crutchlow's stricken Tech 3 Yamaha, causing the marshalls to scatter out of the way.
