Although the RNF Aprilia duo failed to finish as high up the leaderboard as day-one, Fernandez was within a couple of tenths of factory riders 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Aleix Espargaro and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Maverick Vinales, while Oliveira split the two Spaniards. 

Fernandez has looked back to his best sin🗹ce joining Aprilia, while Oliveira’s seamless transition from KTM ꩲhas put him in position to be a threat from race one.

Despite crashes for both riders on the final day of pre-season testing, Fernandez and Oliveira feel thatℱ they’re in a good place heading into next week’s season-opener.

Fernandez said: "I’m really happy about our 🍒test, especially about today. We had aಞ great day and have been working alone on the pace. The speed is very good. 

"In 🅠the last moment, when I tried to do the time attack, I had a small crash. For 🎶that I want to apologize to my team. 

"But anyway, also thanks to them,ꦑ we did a really good job. I’m very happy, we have an amazing bike and I think 2023 is going to be a very nice season for us. ꦕ;

"Apr🐭ilia worked really well last year, they created a fantastic bike and I’m very satisfied overall."

Fernandez is yet to finish in the t🌸op ten of a MotoGP race, but after putting a dismal 2022 campaign with Tech 3 KTM behind him, such a result could come sooner rather than later.

For Oliveira, winning races early on in the season could present a challenge given the form of many Ducati riders in pre♎-season, although the Portuguese rider has shown a knack for getting it done when expectꦬations were not there for him to do so.

"After today, we are in a good place to start the first Grand Prix," added Oliveira. "Though we would like to be a bit more in front in the standings, our pace was qui𝐆te strong and we have been there during the whole day which is good. 

"Unfortunate♓ly, in the after🌟noon today during the time attack, I had a small crash, I was pushing and there was nothing I could do. 

"💛We have some work to do, I just need to start the race weekend toꦺ see where we are."
