Diogo Moreira This Sunday, he scored 24 points in the final race in Ceste and became the first Brazilian world speed champion. And this Tuesday, the freshly won title will make his MotoGP debut as a Honda rider during the post-race test in Cheste. This was not an easy GP for him as he has always lacked rhythm, but he managed to maintain his composure even after the scare. The championship wasn’t going to end easily for Gonzalez, who hadn’t fought for a win since Mugello. The condition of needing four people to the end was what ended the race for him. Izan Guevara holds off Holgado and Ortola for his first Moto2 victory.

And, of course, in his celebration, he takes a few rounds and throws a foul against the barrier formed by the Canarinha’s great 10: Pele, Neymar, Ronaldinho, Kaka and Rivaldo, but those are the numbers that made him champion and will mean he has to give up the jump to MotoGP.

year of Diogo Moreira It was like a roller coaster. They didn’t play into any of the winning bets that focused on Aron Kane and Manu González, who were second and third in the 2024 World Cup, with Moreira in his rookie year finishing 13th, and they carried the weight early on. At the fourth Grand Prix, the Brazilian placed 11th, 47 points behind Kane. At the sixth race at Le Mans, his options worsened, as he finished fifth, 61 points behind González.

It wasn’t until Silverstone and Aragón that he was third in the championship by two seconds, that he started to turn things around. It was a suffocating weekend for him, his first win at Assen and his second victory at the Sachsenring. In the end, he was forced into an accident with Alonso during a blind reversal in 21st place. He received a penalty for leaving the pit lane at Brno, injuring his right arm. I’m back to 60 points.

That was the turning point for me to suddenly become an adult. Red Bull Ring took the win, leaving them second in the championship at Misano, still 39 points behind. Even while González lost his energy, he continued to rack up podiums. In Indonesia, a coup d’état occurred when Manu was disqualified due to the team’s bike software error, reducing the advantage to nine points with Diogo’s victory. The change of leader took place at Sepang, two places from the back, and he was already poised to make history by making the biggest comeback in Moto2 history in his second year in the category.

Having finished in the top 14 in his last nine races, González needed a result to win, but it was tough to control his nerves and anxiety. The São Paulo player started in ninth place, four places behind González, but for Gonzalez, victory was all that mattered. In any other position, Moreira would be given the title even if he signed for zero.

Coming off pole, second-placed Guevara fought to take the lead into the first corner and the race, but the Mallorcan did just that with Arenas following him in his final race at the World Speed ​​Championship. González and Moreira held their positions until the fifth lap, where “Manugas” lost his top five spot to the local Ortola, but recovered three laps later at the expense of Arenas, but lost again and with eight losses, Weyer won. Crossing the equator was terrifying for Moreira. He had to put his elbow into a long right-hand bend to avoid falling, a testament to how uncomfortable this GP was for him and for both of them.

The drama will start in 5 minutes Manu GonzalezDue to excessive marks on his rear tires, he began to lose positions and the Madrid-born driver made his way to the pits in the last four cars. He wanted to finish the race, but they changed tires, lost a lap and came back. He finished the championship with 29 points, finishing on the podium with four wins and nine wins, the same as the champion.

In the final lap, Guevara and Holgado appeared, and the Mallorcan team, with its defensive line, fought for victory. In Race 5, Holgado attempted this but was unsuccessful, and Guevara opened the throttle and ran away, winning his first Moto2 race with a 0.717 and closing in on Iván Ortola’s triple.
