The 2023 MotoGP season may have ended for Miguel Oliveira this Saturday. The first-lap crash in the Qatar GP Sprint race left him with a fracture in his right scapula.
The diagnosis was made at the medical center of the Losail circuit. Now, the CryptoDATA RNF MotoGP Team rider has been taken to an hospital for further examinations.
Declared unfit, Oliveira will miss the main race in Qatar. Given the type of injury, it’s likely that he won’t return to action this season, especially considering that the Valencia GP is scheduled for next week. However, there’s no official indication yet whether the rider will indeed miss the final round of the year.
