Miguel Oliveira was one of several riders to discuss the schedule change at the Australian MotoGP, as he admitted there is now more to lose.
Extreme winds are set to hit the Phillip Island circuit on Sunday which is why organisers took the decision to swap the sprint and main race around.
Many riders agreed with Marquez, while Bezzecchi also admitted to being in favour as it will help him be healthier for the most important race of the weekend. You have more to lose,” said Oliveira. “Basically, if you are not on point you can see the sprint race as FP4 and just try it as another free practice to try a couple of things in a race simulation.Calling into question whether the grand prix should go ahead in its original time slot, Joan Mir was the last to agree with the decision.
