Victories and Titles of the Great Izan Guevara
Izan Guevara The new Moto3 World Champion after signing in a big way for his 6th win of the year and 7th in Moto3 with a stunning finish at the Phillip Island race. He didn’t have to win, but no one will agonize over the sweetness of decanting the crown with a win to show who was the greatest man of the year. has dominated his partner García Dolls.
In a little celebration, he changed his usual helmet with champion gold. He was none other than his Aspar team mentor Nico Teror, his last 125cc champion in 2011. The day Gaviota Gasgas Asper also declared the team champion.
In his second year at the World Cup, Guevara added to his crown, exactly as compatriot Joan Mir did at this same circuit in 2017. Along with pioneer Jorge Lorenzo, the third Mallorcan World Champion in history. After a modest 8th place at Losail, he scored his first podium of the year at Mandalika, a circuit nobody knows about. His first win at the Termas de Rio Hondo was on the horizon, but mechanical problems forced him to retire after leading eight of the race’s first nine laps. He made up for it with a monumental outside to García Dorus and Onc at the final turn 13 in front of the Spanish fans in Jerez to sign a spectacular victory. It’s his 2021 rookie year and his second in his career after Austin.
A year of 6 wins and 11 podiums
And with a long streak of podiums at Le Mans, Mugello, Catalunya and Sachsenring, he finished second in title contention, just three points behind team-mate Dors. In the next race he crashed like his teammate and the first leadership of his life was frustrated. He had to hold out until Misano, where he was already in front for the third time and did not relinquish his World Championship lead. Victories in Aragon and Japan have already given him a decisive boost, after which he will only have to use his experience in the categories before the World Championships to win his third title in the last four years. is ready.
The start of the race was declared dry, and since it had been raining an hour earlier, he was given five minutes to spare to allow the downhills (turns 9 and 10) to be particularly dry. With such silence, Guevara calmly spoke for DAZN on the grid.
García Dorz took the lead of the race from Sasaki, and in seventh place in the group Guevara settled with Foggia, seeking three places against 12th on the grid. Quintero, quarreling with Moreira, Dorus, Sasaki, Onc, and Ortra, stood a few meters away from Guevara, who silently watched as they led their pursuers.
With four laps all rearranged and the race led by Drus, who had already shown the best pace all weekend, Foggia was missing and Guevara was looking for teammate Gasgas’ tail. On some curves, he was given lap five until Sasaki and Moreira got in his way. With greater determination he made it on his eighth lap and began to lead the race by lap nine, with GasGas Aspar giving his half a second to his pursuers with his fifteen laps to go.
A better breaker than cornering specialist Izan, Drus has not twisted an arm out of the highest drawer on the podium since Mugello. So they have always attacked, respectfully looked out for their own interests, and continued to spend. Winning or finishing second alongside Sergio was as worthy as Izan signed on his day. However, Sasaki and Onku were also interested in the race and joined them.
Four people dance at the end
The dance to 4 is constant in the final 5 turns, with Izan very nervous reacting to Oncu and Sasaki’s unpredictable actions every time. On the final lap, Guevara took the lead, closing the gap well and pushing to the max until he was half a second into Rookie Heights, and in style with victory and the title ahead of Onck and Drus, who stole second overall from Foggia. signed. , came to the finish line in just 9th place with a whopping 16-inch 794.
Among the rest of the Spaniards, David Muñoz is 11th, Carlos Tatai 12th, Ivan Ortola 13th, Xavi Artigas 14th, Jaume Macia 15th and Pitito Fernández 18th. , Ana Carrasco was 23rd. Rookie leader Holgado crashed on lap two.

Former Formula 1 driver Riccardo Patrese believes 19-year-old Kimi Antonelli has the chance to compete for the championship in his second season.
With changes to the technical rules, the power order in the starting lineup for the 2026 season may change significantly. Patrese added that Antonelli has already shown that he can be among the names to compete for the championship:
“If Mercedes builds the best car under the new rules, Antonelli should focus on fighting Russell, as he has already shown he can do, and the rest will follow,” Patrese said.
“To the championship title!” he replied when asked how far the young Italian could go next year.
If Antonelli manages to win the championship next season, he will become the first driver to win the title in his second season since Lewis Hamilton in 2008.
Patrese recorded Antonelli’s first year:
“He made his debut, had to learn everything and coped well with the inevitable mistakes that come with lack of experience. I really enjoyed it, he showed pure class moments.”
Antonelli took three podium finishes in his debut season, including an impressive weekend at Interlagos and a spectacular comeback at the Las Vegas Grand Prix.

A 2002 McLaren MP4-17A will go up for auction at RM Sotheby’s in Paris in 2026. Competing in 12 Grands Prix, the chassis was driven by Kimi Raikkonen and David Coulthard, achieving five podiums and one victory. The estimated price of the land is between 1,000,000 and 1,400,000 Euros.
The car was designed under the guidance of the legendary Adrian Newey. Although the MP4-17 initially showed inconsistent performance, it was later able to compete with the dominant Ferrari F2002 and regularly achieve podium finishes.
Chassis number 6 appeared in the middle of the 2002 season and was mainly used by Raikkonen, who replaced Mika Hakkinen in the team. The Finnish driver immediately finished third in the European Grand Prix, followed by second in France and third in the USA.
In 2003, the same chassis updated and driven by Coulthard won the season opener in Australia, marking the Scot’s 13th and final Formula One victory.
The car’s last race was at the 2003 Japanese Grand Prix, driven by Raikkonen, who finished second behind Rubens Barrichello, also of Ferrari. That season the championship was won by Michael Schumacher, who finished eighth in the race.
The car retains its original 2002 West livery and Räikkönen number 4 and is powered by a 3.0-litre Mercedes-Benz FO110 V10 engine. A complete restoration is required for reuse on the track.
Following its racing career, the car was stored at McLaren for 17 years and was purchased by its current owner in 2021. For fans of the early 2000s, this land is a unique investment and historical value.

Peter Sauber, founder of the Sauber Formula 1 team, said that he was very close to signing a contract with Lewis Hamilton nearly 20 years ago.
At the time, the Briton was in the McLaren youth academy, but the Woking team, which regularly challenges for championship titles, planned to send Hamilton outside the peloton for a season to gain experience in Formula One.
According to the Swiss driver, his and McLaren’s vision of the situation did not align. While Peter Sauber was counting on long-term cooperation, the British team was only considering the option of hiring pilots on a temporary basis. Due to different terms and conditions, the deal ultimately did not happen.
“Almost no one knows that Lewis Hamilton planned to race for Sauber nearly 20 years ago.”
“He was part of the McLaren team and they wanted to send him to Hinwil for training. That’s why the McLaren delegation met with Lewis and his father Anthony, me and our lawyer Monisha Kaltenborn at Kloten Airport.”
“In the end the deal didn’t work out because McClaren only wanted to loan him for one season and we insisted on a two-year loan.”
As a result, Lewis Hamilton remained with McLaren and entered the title fight in his first season in Formula 1. The Briton lost the championship largely due to a series of unfortunate circumstances, but he immediately showed the top level. Lewis currently has 7 championships.
