The Moto3 race was, as usual, very hot and unpredictable and the best was reserved for the end, in a moment that ultimately involved three riders, two of whom were directly involved in a moment that even earned a penalty.
The winner of the race was once again Jose Antonio Rueda, who made the most of an incident between David Muñoz and Joel Kelso to take the win, as both went wide… following an attack by Muñoz.
In the fight for first place, Muñoz attacked Kelso and ended up touching him a little more aggressively, thus forcing him to overtake, but that same moment was worth a touch that forced them both wide and opened the door for Rueda to win.
And if Muñoz in practice confirmed the overtake on Kelso and was the second to cross the finish line, the truth is that the Spaniard was penalized one position due to irresponsible riding and was sanctioned one position, with Kelso thus officially being considered the runner-up.
Watch both moments in the video below:
