Miguel Oliveira will be determined to become the second rider to win the
Thailand MotoGP twice after Marc Marquez.
Most recent race
The Aprilia CryptoData RNF MotoGP Team rider endured a disappointing race at the 2023 Australian MotoGP title on 22 October.
Oliveira started on the 19th on the grid and he went on to finish 13th which saw him collect just three points from the race.
Standings
The 2018 Moto2 World Championship runner-up is currently placed 14th on the riders' standings having accumulated 76 points.
Oliveira's ambitions of winning the 2023 MotoGP world title have long faded away having missed two races this season.
Why Oliveira could win the 2023 Thailand MotoGP
The Almanda-born star will be returning to the Chang International Circuit where he won last year's Thailand MotoGP.
Oliveira will be confident of replicating the form that saw him win this race and make it back-to-back victories in the Asian country this weekend.
What did he say?
"Obviously when the forecast was looking a bit dark for Sunday, we all thought we had a good chance of not racing because of the wind,” Oliveira said after the recent Australian MotoGP.
“Thus, finally the change of the schedule to race on Saturday was due to that. Dorna made every effort to try and put us out there in a safe way today for racing but it was just not possible.
“I think all the efforts were done, and when you do that, you can't ask for more. The weather also needs to help us a little bit and, in this case, it didn't work out."
