The Portuguese rider has already won in the Moto3 category in 2015 and in Moto2 in 2018, having finished second in the 2021 MotoGP race.

"It is one of the most special races of the year, in the incredible setting that is Tuscany. The track is quite challenging, with many changes of direction, which become complicated with these heavy bikes", explained the rider from Almada, quoted by the press office of the Trackhouse team.

Miguel Oliveira, 29, also highlights the "difficulty in braking for the first corner" due to "the high speed reached on the main straight".

"But it's an incredible track. I have great memories there thanks to my first victory in Moto3. It's a very special place", stressed the Portuguese rider.

Italian Davide Brivio, sporting director of Trackhouse, the team in which the Portuguese rider competes, believes that Oliveira "is increasingly adapted" to Aprilia.

"It's the last race before a break, so it's important for us to finish with a good result", stressed the same official.

Miguel Oliveira arrives at this round in 13th position in the championship, with 29 points, after the 10th place achieved in Catalonia on Sunday.

Spaniard Jorge Martin (Ducati) leads with 155 points.
