MOTO3 RACE Jose Antonio Rueda (Red Bull KTM Ajo) delivered a sensa- tional third straight win in 2025, joining an elite group of rid- ers—Marc Marquez, Brad Binder and David Alonso—who've won a Moto3 race from the back of the grid. Despite taking pole, Rueda was penalized in Q2 for slowing on track, forcing him to start last. Undeterred, he carved through the field and emerged victorious after a last-lap battle. Rueda made steady progress, joining the lead group by lap four and taking control with five laps remaining. But rookie Maxi - mo Quiles (CFMOTO Valresa As- Salac (Elf Marc VDS Racing Team), Joe Roberts (Ameri- can Racing Team), teammate Marcos Ramirez, and Alonso Lopez (Beta Tools SpeedRS Team) completed the top ten. Home hero Jake Dixon originally crossed ninth but was demoted to 11th after a late penalty. In the points, Gonzalez still leads, but only by three points from Canet, 111 to 108, with Dixon third on 82. wound down, Canet tried to break free, but Alonso reeled him back in, setting up a frantic final lap. At turn six, Alonso briefly led, but Canet dived late at the chi - cane, running wide. Agius seized the moment, slicing through to take the lead. In the final corner, Moreira barged Alonso aside for second, while Alonso still managed to beat Canet to the podium in what must have felt like a robbery after leading the race for so long. Agius's brilliant timing sealed the win. Guevara finished fifth, with Celestino Vietti (Beta Tools SpeedRS Team) storming to sixth from 19th on the grid. ROUND 7 / MAY 23-25 SILVERSTONE CIRCUIT / NORTHAMPTONSHIRE, ENGLAND ROAD RACE I FIM MOTOGP WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP P100 Senna Agius (81) played his cards perfectly to come away with a maiden GP win in Moto2.
