Maverick Vinales has won the Moto3 World Championship after a final turn showdown with title rival Al🦄ex Rins.

Home stars Luis Salom, Vinales and Rins began the race covered by just five points, with victory enough for each of tℱhe KTM riders to secure the title.

The trio qualified on the front row and filled the top t☂hree places by the end of the first lap.

After shadow boxing for the opening half of the race, a major upset occurred when Salom - who had led the champi🦂onship since round six and had been swapping the race lead with Vinales almost at will - lost the front of his K♓TM and slid out of third.

Salom rejoined down the🎃 orde🎀r, but the title was now a straight duel between Vinales and Rins with ten laps to go. Jack Miller then fell from third, leaving a lead group of Rins, Vinales and Folger.

Folger kept a close but respectful🥂 distance and the contest went down to the very final corner when Rins lunged for the inside to pass Vinales - only for Vinales to cut back under on♏ the exit.

Folger then slips♋treamed past Rins for🌸 second on the run for the line.

Sal🔯om has won seven races this year, Rins six and V꧋inales three. Rins' team-mate Alex Marquez is the only other rider to have claimed a 2013 race victory.

Salom and Vinales will be team-mates at Pons in Moto2 next year, with Rins - riding in only his secon☂d grandꩵ prix season - yet to confirm his plans.
