Miguel Oliveira and Marc Marquez set for reunion at scene of ‘race ban’ claim
Miguel Oliveira lays out 2024 target 🦹aꦛs he returns to scene of Marc Marquez incident

For 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Miguel Oliveira and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Marc Marquez, returniꦦng to Portimao this weekend is a reminder of last year’s massive smash.
At the first round of 2023, Oliveira was dramatically wiped out of his home Portuguese MotoGP by a⛄ reckless Marquez whose troubles on his under-performing Honda were getting worse.
Marquez caused himsꦇelf a hand injury, and Oliveira a hip injury. Jorge Martin also emerged with a knock.
Aleix Espargaro raged at Marquez afte𓂃rwards: “For me,🦂 they have to ban him for one race, minimum.
“I don’t make the rules. I just hope Miguel is good. The spee꧙d he was hit at can destroy your knee.”
Marquez and Repsol Honda were them embroiled in a messy kerfuffle ov🍨er a double long lap penalty that he was hit with.
The wording of the punishment stipulated that it was to be served specifically at the next round in Argentina, which Marquez missed anyway due t🌳o injury.
When the FIM Stewards tried to re-word the penalt꧋y to be applied at Marquez’s comeback, Honda were successful in appealing it, and no punishment was serveꦿd.
Marquez would not complete a grand prix until the 10th round last year, due to the inj🍸ury sustained at 🦩Portimao plus more crashes.
Oliveira’s season was also hindered by the🔯 physic꧅al toll of their crash.
🌊Oliveira returns home to Portugal to๊ race for the first time since that incident this weekend.
After starting the season with a P15 finish in Q🍎atar, Oliveira was quoted by : "Without that penalty that I served on Sunday in Qatar, 🌳I think the result would have been different.
“I see myself capable of doing better in Portugal൲. I𝓰t is my favourite circuit.
“It is more natural ꦚfor me to ride fast in Portimao.”
The Trackhouse rider expects a very different Marquez to return to Pꦺortiꦦmao, no longer battling against his own machinery.
"I🔯 have seen Marc, with the Ducati, doing very well,” Oli𒆙veira said.
“Maybe he held back a little꧅ because I think he wanted to start with a mor𒀰e solid result.
“I already expected it, the speed.”
"After last year I had, I would like to get on the podium again and win ꧙a race, that would make me very happy,"
Oliveira, of course, won the Portuguese MotoGP four years ag꧃o, a historic triumph on home turf.
But last year’s big crash set the to💯ne for an underwhelming season.
"After the last year I had, I would like to get on the podium again a𓆏nd win a rac💙e,” Oliveira declared.
“That would make me very happy.”
