Miguel Oliveira’s improvements were evident at the MotoGP Spanish Grand Prix, finishing in eighth place as the best Aprilia rider. Now, the Trackhouse Racing man wants to continue on this path at the French Grand Prix.
In a statement, the Portuguese rider said: ‘The Bugatti Circuit in Le Mans is a track on which I didn’t ride last year, so I’m very curious to ride the Aprilia bike there. The weather forecast looks nice at the moment and I’m looking forward to enjoying the weekend’.
Regarding his aspirations for this round, Oliveira stated: ‘The goal is to improve as always and keep building towards a better result in front of the packed Grandstands that are always a feature at the French Grand Prix’.
At the moment, the Portuguese rider occupies the 13th position in the championship, coming from his best result of the season so far. He has 23 points, and he could leave Le Mans in the top ten of the championship.
