Miguel Oliveira, rider of the CryptoDATA RNF MotoGP Team, will not be able to participate in the next French Grand Prix, at Le Mans, due to a shoulder injury suffered in the last round held in Jerez de La Frontera, Spain. At the time of the incident, the Charneca de Caparica rider was immediately assisted by the circuit's Medical Centre, with the medical team successfully repositioning his dislocated left shoulder, but further clinical assessments revealed a more serious injury, including a fractured Humerus and an injury to the anterior labrum ligament.
Although Oliveira and his doctors have decided against a possible surgical intervention, the Portuguese will need to focus on the healing process and will not be able to participate in the French round, scheduled for the dates between 12 and 14 May.
In the absence of Miguel Oliveira, Cryptodata RNF MotoGP Team will bet on Lorenzo Savadori. As Aprilia's official test rider, Savadori had already had the opportunity to familiarize himself with the team and conditions during the official MotoGP test at Circuito de Jerez – Angel Nieto last Monday.
