With a 97-point buffer to Daniel Holgado (Red Bull GASGAS Tech3), a 105-point gap to Ivan Ortola (MT Helmets – MSI), a 107-point lead over Collin Veijer (Liqui Moly Husqvarna Intact GP) and five races left to contest, all the #80 needs to leave Motegi with is a 100-point advantage and the crown will be his.
Both Holgado and Ortola beat Alonso around the Mobility Resort Motegi in 2023 when the Spaniards finished P3 and P5 respectively, and the same will be needed again this weekend if they want to keep their loosening grips clinging onto a title chance this season. For Veijer, his crash from the lead in Indonesia cost the Dutchman crucial points, and if the #95 doesn’t gain a chunk of points on Alonso in Japan, he’ll be ruled out of Championship contention too.
A huge few days in Moto3™ await, with the home faithful ready to cheer on a pair of Indonesian GP frontrunners – Taiyo Furusato (Honda Team Asia) and Tatsuki Suzuki (Liqui Moly Husqvarna Intact GP) – and the lead Japanese rider in the Championship, Ryusei Yamanaka (MT Helmets – MSI). However, they’ll be sharing the spotlight with the four contenders. Will our first Champion of the year be crowned?
