This Friday the 14th round of the MotoGP championship began, this time at the Italian circuit of San Marino. The peloton held the first free practice session (FP1) on dry ground, although with about 70% humidity, and these same conditions happened in FP2, although with the sun peeking out. Miguel Oliveira managed to set his best mark of the day in 1m33s636, a mark that results from the combined times of both sessions, which placed him in 12th position this Friday.
Medium tires, front and rear, were Miguel Oliveira’s choice during the 45 minutes of FP1, a session in which he managed to run 21 laps, despite having twice left for the RedBull KTM ‘box’. Having reached practically over 300 km/hour, it was on the 8th lap that the Almadense got his best time of the session – 1:33.636 -, which put him in 18th place, +1.323 than the best time of the first practice of the day.
In FP2, Oliveira made a huge leap in the timesheets, having been part of the provisional top 10 for tomorrow, for a good part of the session, but a non-serious crash at turn 10 ended up preventing Miguel Oliveira from securing himself inside. of the top 10 best brands of the day. The one considered by the paddock to be one of the most highly gifted riders closed the combined timesheet in 12th place.
Tomorrow, work begins with the third free practice session of the weekend at 08:55, followed a little later by the fourth practice session, as well as the qualifying sessions. The race on Sunday is at 1:00 pm Mainland Portugal time.
