Miguel Oliveira ended the day with the 16th best time, in 1.33.748 minutes, 1.282 seconds from the fastest, which was from the Spaniard Pol Espargaró (Honda), who beat his brother Aleix (Aprilia) by 0.471 seconds.

Miguel Oliveira completed 77 laps of the track, and achieved his best time on his 66th lap.

“It was a difficult start because there was a lot of dust and with the rain it became difficult to find traction. They cleared the track and [trajectory] lines began to appear. In the end, it was good, but there is only one trajectory and, if you leave [it], you have to abort the lap”.

Even so, Miguel Oliveira considers that “the track is interesting”.

“It is difficult to compare with others. The last corner reminds me a little of Argentina. Something new is the fast right turns and the quick change of direction between the seventh and eighth turns,” he said.
