Miguel Oliveira (Prima Pramac Yamaha MotoGP) is set to be back racing at this weekend’s Michelin® Grand Prix of France following a three-race absence.

The Portuguese star suffered a dislocated sternoclavicular ligament in his left shoulder after a crash at the Grand Prix of Argentina and has since been forced to sit on the sidelines while his recovery process took place. This saw Yamaha Test Rider Augusto Fernandez fill in at the Americas, Qatar and Spanish GPs.

Now though, after a positive medical check in Milan last week, Oliveira will travel to Le Mans with the aim of being back on his YZR-M1 after scans revealed his shoulder is now fully recovered. If Thursday’s mandatory medical examination at the circuit goes to plan, the #88 will make a welcome return to the track on Friday.
