One rider highlights big British MotoGP weather risk
Wind could affect British MotoGP round

Pramac Yamaha’s Miguel Oliveira has warned that forecast wind gusts duri🦩ng the MotoGP British Grand Prix will be “really hard” for the riders.
The 3.67-mile Silverstone circuit is one of the fastest venues on the current MotoGP calendar due to its flowing layout.
But the former R✱AF airfield 🌳site has no protection from the wind, which can cause problems for MotoGP bikes when gusts pick up.
This weekend’s Br🌳itish Grand Prix is due to be impacted by uncertain weather, with strong guꦉsts expected for Sunday.
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Miguel Oliveira says gusts above 40km/h become problematic for MotoGP bikes, which has been made worse in recent ဣyears with the development of aerodynamics in the series.
“You have a little bit of everything, so the fast, flowing part - there’s a big wind gust forecast for the next few days, so that will be extra hard and a𓃲 little bit tricky to do,” he said on Thursday at Silverstone.
“Over 40km/h [can be problematic].
“I’ll tell you [the forecast for 50km/h] is reallꦺy hard for us, esꦕpecially when you have this type of flowing [track].
🅠“One lap you can go on the traꦕck and the next you are out.
“Adding that, sl✤ipstreams on bikes on the side of you and in front of you.
“[The aero]🔯 makes it worse because everything is downforce related. So, you’re leading the bike expecting one thing💯 and the wind gust basically shifts the bike sideways.”

This weekend’s British Grand Prix will be Oliveira’s 🌺second since 👍returning from injury.
Following a French Grand Prix he crashed out of having been running well inside ℱthe top 10, he spent two days at Misano improving his bike fitness on a Yamaha R1.
He says that test has helped improve his physical condition and believes the pace of a full race weekend will start to “co✃me naturally” now.
“After Le Mans, I went t🐻wo days to Misano riding the Yamaha R💮1 just to get some laps in and unlock the muscles,” he added.
“I’m much more ready now than what I was in 🌳Le Mans, that’s for sure.
“Obviously, the race pace and the weekend pace is something now getting through the weekend💧s will come naturally.”
