David Alonso could not have wished for a better end to the year in Moto3, as he won the Barcelona Solidarity GP. This was the world champion’s 14th victory in the current season, in a race that was marked by the final punishment for Adrián Fernández, after he crossed the finish line in third.

With the category title already decided, it remained to be seen, among others, who would come second and third in the world championship, with Collin Veijer and Daniel Holgado tied with 236 points.

For today’s race, David Alonso started in pole position, with Veijer and Ivan Ortolá on the first row, Ángel Piqueras, Holgado and Luca Lunetta on the second.

Alonso had a great start and in the first moments of the race he was in the lead, with Ortolá in second, Holgado in third, Veijer in fourth and Piqueras already completing the top five. Stefano Nepa crashed at turn 4, involved with Lunetta. The Italian would later be penalized with a Long Lap for irresponsible riding.

David Muñoz, however, was moving up positions and with 17 laps to go he was already second, and Holgado had taken the lead. Adrián Fernández was also on the rise and was third.

In the following laps the positions continued to change constantly but Holgado remained the leader, but on that same lap Fernández reached the front, Holgado was second and Piqueras third.

A couple of laps later Taiyo Furusato was the fastest driver with a lap time of 1:47601s, he was ninth in the race at the time.

On the following lap there was another change in the leader with Holgado once again coming to the front of the race, and with Alonso now in sixth, being the author of the best lap (1:47.555s).

Fernández, however, ended up responding and reached the front again, where he remained until the last five laps where the usual “suspect” appeared: Alonso was once again at the front of the race.

Alonso's plan is all coming together! 👌

The world champion only stayed ahead for one lap as Fernández returned to the lead. With three laps to go, this was the top five: Fernández, Muñoz, Holgado, Ortolá and Alonso.

On the following lap Alonso was once again in front and entered the last lap with almost 0.2s of advantage.

The race ended shortly after with Alonso completing another race at the front and thus ending the year with a flourish by winning in Barcelona – his 14th victory of the year – with Holgado in second and Fernández crossing the finish line in third. The Leopard Racing driver, however, was penalized three seconds for three cuts in turns 1 and 2, promoting Piqueras to the top three, with him finishing in 11th.
