Miguel Oliveira finished the MotoGP Indonesian Grand Prix in 12th position. The CryptoDATA RNF MotoGP Team rider was up to sixth at one point, but a touch from Brad Binder (Red Bull KTM) while in eighth definitively ended his chances of finishing in the top ten.
The Portuguese rider lamented the poor choice of the soft rear tire, which quickly became evident was not the best option. Nevertheless, he ensured that lessons were learned from the Mandalika round:
– The race was… clearly not the best for us. We started well, but soon found out that the choice of the rear tire was not the best. It’s a shame because I really felt that we had made progress with the bike setup and also yesterday’s sprint race was good for me. So I am really disappointed with this, but we need to take out the positive aspects. We learned something from the bike setup. We just have to keep pushing in the upcoming races and do our best.
