Miguel Oliveira Aims for Third Victory on Unknown Territory at Indian Grand Prix

If Miguel Oliveira managed to win this weekend in India, he would achieve a resounding pass of three that would put him in the contemporary history of MotoGP. Indeed, the Portuguese has this particularity that each time the MotoGP organizes a Grand Prix on unknown territory, it is he who closes the grand premiere with a victory. He thus achieved success at Portimao in 2020 then at Mandalika in 2022, and each time on a KTM. Today he is riding a not clumsy Aprilia RS-GP, so why not?

His teammate Raul Fernandez which comes out of a good San Marino Grand Prix clarified for his part: “ we won’t have much time to learn the circuit and we don’t have much information about it yet. It can also mean a lot of fun because in the end everyone will be on the same level “. The Madrilenian of 22 years added: “ my self-confidence and our level are improving more and more, I feel more comfortable on the bike every day and I can attack however I want ».

The final word goes to the boss Razlan Razaliwho boosts the morale of the paddock plagued by concerns about the general organization of the event with this spontaneous enthusiasm: “ the one who knows how to quickly adapt to the route will have a big advantage.

The Malaysian also highlighted: “ I love India. It’s a majestic country and it’s strategically very good for us as a team and for MotoGP to go to Indiathe country with the second largest population in the world and a huge two-wheeler market ».
