Just a few days off and Miguel Oliveira and the CryptoDATA RNF MotoGP Team are back on track this weekend for the seventh round of the 2023 MotoGP World Championship season, which is the second race of a triple header ahead of the summer break, taking place in Sachsenring, Germany. Following the Italian Grand Prix, Miguel Oliveira had a much clearer idea of his level and expectations after coming back from injury last week.
For Oliveira the Mugello weekend hasn’t been an easy one as he was still suffering a lot from pain in his left shoulder. Nevertheless, he grit his teeth to do the full weekend as competitive as possible. He adapted his riding style a bit and therewith scored some decent results until he unfortunately went down around halfway through the race. Yet, the Portuguese hero is very motivated to try and push further in Germany this weekend.
“Obviously after the result we had in Mugello, we are looking forward and are happy that this week we already have a chance to redeem ourselves to get a nice result for the team. Sachsenring is a track that I like. I saw the Aprilia’s were competitive there last year, so I want to do well there and see if we can get a little step closer to my full recovery to 100%”, said Miguel Oliveira.
The German Grand Prix weekend starts as usual with Practice one and two on Friday at 09:45 and 02 p.m, portuguese time. The long race this sunday will take place at 1 p.m, portuguese time.
