For 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Miguel Oliveira and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marc Marquez, returning ꦛto Port🙈imao 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 under𒅌-performing Honda were getting worse.

Marquez caused himsel💝f a hand injury, and Oliveira a hip injury. Jorge Martin also emerged with a knock.

Aleix Espargaro raged at Marquez afterwards: “For💎 me, they have to ban him for one race, minimum.

“I don’t make the rules. I just hope Migu💟el is good. The speed he was 📖hit at can destroy your knee.”

Marquez and Repsol Honda were them embroiled in a messy kerfuffle over a double long𒁃 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 Marq🐻uez missed anyway due to injury.

When the FI༒M Stewards tried to re-word the penalty to be applied at Marquez’s comeback, Honda were successful in appealing it, and no punishment was served.

Marquez would not complete a grand prix until the 10th round last year, due to the injury sustained at Portimao plus 🔥more crashes.

Oliveira’s season was also hindered by the physical tollꦡ of their crash.

Olive♛ira returns h🎐ome to Portugal to race for the first time since that incident this weekend.

After starting the season with a P1♒5 finish in Qatar, Oliveira was quoted by : "Without that penalty that I served on Sunday in Qatar, I think the result would have been different.

“I see mysel🀅f capable of doing better in Portugal. It is my favourite cirඣcuit.

“🐼It is more ꧋natural for me to ride fast in Portimao.”

T๊he Trackhouse rider expects a very different Marquez to return to Portimao, no longer battling against his own machinery.

"I have see💦n Marc, with the Ducati, doing🧸 very well,” Oliveira said.

“Maybe he held back a little because I think he wanted to start wit🥀h a꧑ more solid result.

“I already expected it, the speed.”

"After last year I had, I would like to get on the podium agai🌜n and win a race, that would make me very happy,"

Oliveira, of course, won t🅘he Portuguese MotoGP four years ago, a historic triumph on home turf.

But last year’s big crash set the tone for an underwhelming seas♚on.

"After the ꦚlast year I had, I would like to get on the podium again and win a race,” Oliveira declared.

“That would make me very happy.”
