Former Mot02 rider and KTM test rider Joan Olivé has tweeted that he’ll be riding in this weekend’s Moto3 race at Estoril filling in for disqualified Niklas Ajo.
The TT Motion Events Racing team rider was slapped with a disqualification penalty related to the incident with Jerez’s marshals last Sunday, where he refused to obey instructions given to him after his crash and then pushed one of the marshals, who didn’t want to help him return to the race.
The last time we saw Olivé on track was the 2011 season where he took part in the last six races for the Aeroport de Castello team on a FTR/Honda and in 2012 didn’t find an official ride, so he is currently mentoring KTM riders like Danny Kent and Arthur Sissis.
