After a schedule change which saw the grand prix mꦇoved to Saturday, the sprint race was cancelled on Sunday morning after heavy winds caused havoc in the Moto2 race.

The schedule change was made because of fears that win could reach unsafe speeds, aꦇnd that’s what proved to be the ca🌺se.

• Marquez: “Martin i♛s the favouriteꦦ for the title because he’s the fastest”

Last on the schedule prior to the expected sprint, the Moto2 race was red-fl♑agged as a result of the conditions.

"Obviously when th🐭e forec🌠ast was looking a bit dark for Sunday, we all thought we had a good chance of not racing because of the wind,” said Oliveira. 

“Thus, finally the change of the schedule to race on Saturday was due to that. Dorna made every effort to try and put us out there in a safe way today♋ for racing but it was just not possible. 

“I think all the efforts were done, and when you do that, you can't ask for more. The weather also needs to help us a little bit and, in this 🍃case, it didn't w✃ork out."

Oliveira’s team-mate Raul Fernandez ꦗalso said the conditions were too dangerous to race in.

While it rained throughout Sunday, it wasn’t 🃏until the Moto2 race where the wins also became a big issue.

Fernand♏ez added: “In morning the track was not too bad, the wind was stable. 

“But the problem was during Moto2 as the wind started coming up heavily, it was too aggressive and we saw a few craღshes. 

“It waꦇs on our mind, we knew the possibility of the weather going crazy on Sunday. 

“So they did a good decision to cancel the race today 𒅌and that we did the race yesterday."
