Maverick Vinales has won the Moto3 World Chܫampionship after a final turn showdown with title rival Alex R𒁏ins.

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

The trio 🐈qualified on the front row and filled the top three places by the end of the first lap🐼.

After shadow boxing for the opening half of the race, a major upse♕t occurred when Salom - who had led the championship since round six and had been swapping the race lead with Vinales almost at will - lost the front of his KTM and slid out of ♍third.

Salom rejoined down the order, 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, Vinal𒁃es and Folꦓger.

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 slip💦streamed past Rins for second on the run fo🐟r the line.

Salom has won seven races this year, Rins six and Vinales 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 second grand prix season - yet to🍌 confirm his plans.
