Miguel Oliveira took an excellent 5th place in the Portuguese GP. After an unauthorized warm-up, the Portuguese rider showed good momentum during the 25 laps of the Portimão track after the second cannon start at the # 88 KTM. Fabio Quartararo proved to be in the second league dominated the race from round 4, when he jumped into the lead.
After returning to Miguel Oliveira’s race, the Portuguese rose four positions right at the start of the race and reached sixth after a few laps. He ended up past the diabolical Alex Rins (he started in 23rd place) and finished 7th, where he kept himself comfortable with a good rhythm.
Miguel didn’t get any closer to the rivals at the forefront, but he also maintained his lead over those behind him. Because the accident of some is the luck of others, Miguel ended up benefiting from the fall of Jack Miller and Joan Mir, thus rising to 5th where he saw a checkered flag.
With Quartararo’s victory, Johann Zarco and Aleix Espargaró ended up on the podium. Yamaha’s Frenchman thus won 25 points and rose to the top of the World Series with 69 points, as did Alex Rins. Miguel Oliveira is in 8th place with 39 points.
