Miguel Oliveira fractured his right scapula during the MotoGP Qatar Grand Prix Sprint race, and this is the end of the season for him. The CryptoDATA RNF MotoGP Team man admits he will miss both the GP and the Valencia test.
The Portuguese rider said to the press that surgery might not be necessary: ‘It looks like no, I will not need surgery. That takes a bit of time to really get the bone into a bit of solidification, then we’ll see what’s ahead in terms of tendons and the shoulder area. To see what’s going on’.
When asked about missing the Valencia test, Oliveira confirmed: ‘Unfortunately, yeah it looks like I will miss the race, the test, and that’s it, my final laps of this fantastic season have come to an end’.
