The Trackhouse rider was the o🌺nly rider able to pose a serious threat to Ducati before slowly losing touch as the race went on.

Oliveira was overtaken by both Marc Marquez and Enea Basti♏anini at the final corner which dropped him to seventh before gaining a place when Jor♓ge Martin crashed on the penultimate lap.

“It was a great weekend for sure,” said Oliveira. “We managed very competitive lap times, had very competitive finish൲es, both in the Qualifying and the Sprint.

“Today was the first real challenge, in🎐 the long race, that I faced during the week꧅end.

“We just didn’t have enough for the Ducatis today - they were on a different⛄ pace and different grip levels.

“It’s a shame I cou𒀰ldn’t challenge for more because during the weekend I was riding good, quite smooth, managing the tyres very well but I just didn’t have enough today.”

Like in the sprint on Saturday, Oliveira’s team-mate Raul Fernandez dropped down the order after starting alongside the Portuguese rider on the front rඣow.

Although it wasn’t as steep a drop as the sprint, Fernaꦿndez ultimately finished the race in tenth spot.

Fernandez added: “We had to analyse well what happened yesterday to understand the issue we had in the Sprint because also for my mind,ꦑ it wasꦐ important to have a report before going into the race today.

“It was quite difficult to manage the Sprint yesterday, so I wanted to know what t🌃o e🥀xpect from the race today.

“The team did a good job and th꧃is morning we h💃ad some good information from yesterday.

“I understood the problem I had in the Sprint, so I was super focus💫ed on performance in the race because I thought 💃we could do well.

“But, finally in the race itself, although I did my maximum, I didn’t🤪 have anything more, especially in the second part of the race.

“In the first 15 laps I was there fighting with leading group and Miguel but, from lap 15 on ꩵto the end, I was strugglꩲing with the tyre.

“We tried to save it during the race in the way that I know, but it was difficult and so🔯 the⛦ end of the race was hard. I did my best and we are in the top 10 - the weekend overall was quite ok.”
