It was no surprise that the riders who are known for their ability in the wet soon found themselves near the front of the race, and the usual suspects were no surprise to Miller, stating:“When we come into the kind of …unknowns, of not being in the wet and then going out in the wet – I already know who the guys who are going to be really fast are.RIDER RATINGS: 10 for Oliviera but who suffered their worst grade of the year?2022 Thailand MotoGP, Buriram Circuit – Race ResultsEspargaro “angry with other riders” – “you can’t blame everybody”MotoGP 2023 Rider Line-Up | MotoGP 2022Video of MotoGP 2023 Rider Line-Up | MotoGP 2022It’s generally – I’ll know I’ll be pretty quick, I know Miguel [Oliveira] will be really quick, I know Zarco will be really quick, we’re kind of the three that can sort of adapt.
