KTM’s Miguel Oliveira feels it was a positive to have been forced into “attack mode” throughout the wet MotoGP ThailandGP as it meant he was “never relaxed”. Here's what he said after Sunday's race ⬇️
Oliveira says Miller’s early pace forced him into pushing hard from the off and he couldn’t relent once in front because of the Ducati rider.
“It was definitely a difficult race from a mental point of view,” Oliveira said following his fifth career MotoGP victory.“So, I was definitely comfortable but not too comfortable. “I think Jack also put on a lot of pressure and pulled away at the beginning of the race, and made me be always in attack mode until the last lap.“So, it was definitely good. The beginning of the race was hard for all of us because we couldn’t see that much in the straights and there was a bit of aquaplaning.
