PORTIMAU, Portugal: Miguel Olivera took the biggest advantage of winning the last motor GP race of the season in Portugal on Sunday.
Jack Miller’s second place ensured that Ducati sealed the title of builder.
Oliveira’s first victory in Austria in August was in Puerto Rico, the first race in her country’s premier class.
The KTM Tech 3 rider’s victory meant that there was no one to win the 10th race, with Fabio Quartarro, Brad Binder, Andrea Daviesuso, Franco Morbidelli, Mauric Vaniels, Danilo Petrocchi, Alex Runs and Mir at an extreme end. Make nine winners. Unexpected World Championship.
Morbidelli topped the runners-up battle for the top spot despite finishing second in the Australian Miller’s last lap.
The Italian finished 13 points behind Morbedeli Mir, who confirmed his first world title in Valencia last weekend.
Miller’s strong success, meanwhile, ensured that Ducati claimed the title of builder at Suzuki’s expense for the first time since 2007, after a disappointing weekend for Mir.
Mir started in Race 20 and had to retire due to electronic problems, but Spinard will not worry about being too upset, he has become the first Suzuki rider since 2000 to become the first Suzuki champion.
Alex Runs finished third overall and Mauric Vaniels finished fourth, meaning Spain were proud of three of the top four in the championship. Frenchman Fabio Quarto, who won the first two races of the season, finished fifth.
Portimau has been hosting the country’s first race in the championship since 2012, with Oliveira already posting a record time qualifying on Saturday.
He started from the pole position and guided himself completely to complete the fairy tale, the only shame is that there were no fans in Algarve to watch him.
Oliveira still celebrates today, carrying the Portuguese flag in her lap.
Nine-time champion Valentino Rossi, meanwhile, continued the disappointing season for Yamaha, finishing 12th, the last appearance of Rossi before he was switched to the satellite team in 2021.
Call Crouchlo from the UK was also bidding farewell to his full-time MotoGP career. He enjoyed a quick start but faded, back to 13th.
Australian Remy Gardner co-crowned the 2020 World Champion with his first Moto 2 win in Portimao with Italy’s Aenea Bastianini.
Spaniard Raul Fernandez won the Moto 3 race after compatriot Albert Arenas finished 12th after a thrilling final this season.
