It was very nearly a sixth win of 2025 for title race leader Jose Antonio Rueda (Red Bull KTM Ajo) at the Sachsenring, but a last lap, last corner lunge from David Munoz (Liqui Moly Dynavolt Intact GP) saw the latter collect his second Moto3 victory.
That win promoted Munoz back ahead of second place finisher Maximo Quiles (CFMOTO Gaviota Aspar Team), as the rookie bagged his fourth podium in the last five as most of the Moto3 field get ready to attack Brno for the first time in Grand Prix conditions. Someone who isn’t doing that is Quiles’ teammate and 2020 Moto3 Czech GP winner Dennis Foggia – can the Italian make experience count this weekend and return to the rostrum?
Angel Piqueras (FRINSA – MT Helmets – MSI) moved back into P2 in the standings after his P4 finish was a personal best since his Jerez podium, as lead rookie Alvaro Carpe (Red Bull KTM Ajo) is shuffled back to P3 overall following his P5. And with Joel Kelso (LEVELUP-MTA) putting in a confidence-boosting P6 in Germany, it means the top six in the championship were your top six finishers last time out.
Taiyo Furusato (Honda Team Asia) will be keen to bounce back from his last lap crash from P3, as the Japanese star and the majority of the Moto3 class gear up for a weekend of racing at the iconic Automotodrom Brno for the first time. Will Rueda’s 73-point lead come down before the summer break, or will the #99 continue his march towards the trophy?
