Moto2: Two points, three to play – game on between Gonzalez and Moreira
Moto2: Liqui Moly Dynavolt Intact GP’s Manuel Gonzalez and Italtrans Racing Team’s Diogo Moreira touch down in Malaysia separated by just two points in the Moto2 World Championship after their Australian GP scrap, with the gloves now officially off in this year’s scintillating title race.
A hard-fought P3 for the Brazilian, coupled with the Spaniard’s P7, saw the gap come down to almost nothing between the pair. With three to play, Fantic Racing duo Aron Canet and Barry Baltus, plus ELF Marc VDS Racing Team’s Jake Dixon, need to have a huge weekend if they still want to be in the mix when the final two weekends arrive. Canet is 35 points back, Baltus sits 42 away, with Dixon 57 adrift.
The main focus, understandably, will be on the top two. The momentum sits firmly in Moreira’s camp, so a pendulum swing the other way this weekend feels important for Gonzalez after his DSQ and P7 in the last two. It really is game on now.
Last Sunday, no one could lay a glove on runaway winner Senna Agius (Liqui Moly Dynavolt Intact GP). The home hero produced a stunner on the Island, so can the Australian continue that form for the rest of 2025? The same question will be asked about David Alonso (CFMOTO RCB Aspar Team) after the 2024 Moto3 World Champion collected his third podium of the season last time out.
Two points in it, three to play. There’s no room for error as the Moto2 title race enters its closing stages, starting in Sepang.
