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

The Moto3 class were first out on the damp Le Mans track for round six, the French Grand Prix and it wasജ all chang♕e 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 lig♕hts out, with the rain looking to have cleared for the day, but w💝ith wet patches around Museum to navigate.
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, quickly rising through the pack and into the lead quartet.
A first piece of fortune came when his closest title rival, Angel Piqueras slipped back after an error, pushing hard to re-join the frontrunners, he fell at tur๊n ten at the half way m🀅ark.
The race had been lead from race one untilꦫ 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 some last lap drama.
Munoz was ready to pounce and forced his way up a gap up the inside, 💙sending both himself and Kelso wide - leaving the door open for Rꦓueda.
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 Int🍨act GP rider Munoz recovered quickly from the incident to finish second but was demoted a place for his actions by race direction, still collecting hos first podium of the season in third.
Keꦍlso had proven his one lap pace, setting a new lap record over the course of the weekend. In race trim the Le🐷velUp 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 Carꦦpe secured a huge comeback fi✱nish. Having qualified down in 13th, he too cut through the pack to lead the chasing group, the pulling away from them to a solo fourth.
David Alma𓆏nsa also moved forward from ninth on the grid , fighting fellow comeback rider Taiyo Furusato to the 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 his way tওo sixth for Honda Team Asia.
On pole for the first time 𝓰in just his second outing, rookie Maximo Quiles, lead the opening corners before Kelso took over, making up places late on after dropping outဣ of the top ten to place seventh for CFMoto Gaviota Aspar.
Leopard rider Adrian Fernandez was next to the line, right behind in eighth, just ahead of Luca Lunetta ꦯin ninth for SIC58 Squadra Corse.
Valentin Perrone held the home interꩵest in the Moto3 race, riding for൩ the French Tech3 team, along with Jacob Roulstone, and did enough for the top ten.
