OLIVEIRA
Birthplace : Pragal DOB : 1995-01-04
Height : 170 cm Weight : 64 kg
After making his Moto3™ debut in 2012 , he switched to Mahindra ’ s factory Moto3™ squad for 2013 and ’ 14 . A year in Aki Ajo ’ s Red Bull KTM Moto3™ squad in 2015 resulted in six wins and a championship challenge . Oliveira moved to Moto2™ the following year and by 2017 he was reunited with Ajo . He just fell short of beating Francesco Bagnaia to the Moto2™ World Championship in 2018 , but he moved to KTM ’ s satellite MotoGP™ team for 2019 . Nobody expected him to win two races in 2020 in Tech 3 colours , including a memorable victory at his home GP . He stepped up to KTM ’ s factory team in 2021 . Despite a brilliant win in Barcelona , he struggled badly in the second half of the season , in part due to a wrist injury suffered in free practice for the Styrian GP . He ’ s back and refreshed for 2022 but has struggled to find any form of consistency so far .
