Trackhouse Racing debuts this year in MotoGP, but retains the riders from the previous Aprilia satellite team: Miguel Oliveira and Raúl Fernández. Kevin Schwantz, who attended the team presentation event, spoke about this duo.
The former rider argued, quoted by the MotoGP website, that #25 still needs some improvements: ‘I think we all saw that Raúl needs some refinement. He is an aggressive, fast rider, and that’s what you have to be‘.
About Oliveira, Schwantz emphasized that he has already shown he is capable of winning: ‘Miguel has had some injuries, but he won the Portuguese Grand Prix, he is a proven race winner and I think Trackhouse has a lot to be excited about‘.
