Miguel Oliveira put an end to the rumors that placed him on the Honda route, and today in Buriram clarified that there are no news about his future, while also ensuring that he is not in talks with the Japanese manufacturer.
A MotoGP reporter asked Oliveira about the most talked-about topic in the rider market in recent times: ‘Obviously there is still a lot of talk about your future, is there anything you would like to tell us about what has happened in the last few weeks,’ with the Portuguese being brief in words: ‘No, there’s not much more [to say].’
When asked next if he was in discussions with the Japanese manufacturer or if something is happening, he replied: ‘No, we’re not, no.’
Remember that on more than one occasion Oliveira said that the possibility of Honda was real, emphasizing his desire to be on a factory team, something that is unlikely to happen in 2024 with Aprilia, as the manufacturer is expected to continue with Aleix Espargaró and Maverick Viñales, both riders also rumored to succeed Marc Márquez. It is also worth noting that, according to international press, the Portuguese rider would want a three-year contract.
