2025 French Moto3 - Race Results
Race results from the 2025 Moto3 French Grand Prix at a damp Le Mans, ✤where Jo๊se Antonio Rueda went through an open door, gifting him back-to back wins.

The Moto3 class were first out o🦂n the dಌamp Le Mans track for round six, the French Grand Prix and it was all change on the last lap as Jose Antonio Rueda took advantage of the fight in front to slip through and pick up consecutive wins.
The race was declared dry in the build up to lights out, with the rain looking to have cleared for the day, but with wet patches around Museum to navigᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚate.
Jerez race winner Rueda was only eighth in Q2, so had work to do in the race. Unable to recreate his dominance at the front from Jerez, the Red Bull KTM Ajo rider showed a different skillset, qui🌞ckly rising through the pack and into the lead quart𒅌et.
A first piece of fortune came when his closest title rival, Angel Piqueras slipped back after an error, pushing hard to re-join t🌄he frontrunners, he fell at turn ten at the hal♏f way mark.
The race had been lead from race one until the final corner by Joel Kelso, with David Munoz in behind, waiting to pounce - Rueda was sensibly placed just behind heading into the final corner, where Raccordement was the scene of som๊e last lap drama.
Munoz was ready to pounce and forced his way♔ up a gap up the inside, sending bot✃h himself and Kelso wide - leaving the door open for Rueda.
The Spaniard took advantage of his luck and crossed the line first for his fourth win of the season aboard the KTM.

Liqui Moly Dynavolt Intact GP rider Munoz recovered quickly from the incident to finish second but was demoted a place f𒀰or his actions by race direction, still collecting hos first podium of the season in third.
Kelso had proven his one lap pace, settin🤪g a new lap record o🌺ver the course of the weekend. In race trim the LevelUp MTA rider used that speed advantage to stay ahead from lap one, but his defensive line left him open to being reeled on and attacked. With both the Australian and Munoz looking for their first win a last lap clash felt almost inevitable, with Kelso promoted back to second, 0.636s behind Rueda.
Rueda’s rookie teammate Alvaro Carpe secured a hu♑ge comeback finish. Having qualified down in 13th, he too cut through the pack ꦓto lead the chasing group, the pulling away from them to a solo fourth.
David Almansa also moved forward from ninth on the grid , fighting fellow comeback rider Taiyo Furusato to t🐎he line for fifth as top Leopard and Honda rider in the race.
Furusato started eleventh and was up and down the pack on track fighting for position from start to finish on hಌis way🦄 to sixth for Honda Team Asia.

Leopard rider Adrian Fernandez was next to the line, right behind in eighth, just 🦩ahead of Luca Lunetta in ninth for SIC58 Squadra Corse.
