It is the second time that RNF Aprilia rider Oliveira has beenꦐ on the wrong end of a crash caused by another rider this season.

In Portimao, Marc Marquez c💟rashed into him. He missed Argentina as a result, meaning Oliveira has now completed just one of the first four grands prix through no fault of his own.

Quartararo went on to finish 10th, the conclus﷽ion to a miserable weekend for the Yamaha rider.

Mooney VR46 rider Bezzecchi did not finish, so conceded th☂e lead of the MotoGP standings to factory Ducati's Francesco Bagnaia, who held off Brad Binder to win the Spanish MotoGP.
