Jose Antonio Rueda left no room for doubt about his intentions in the Moto3 World Championship opener as he claimed a very comfortable victory in Buriram, with second place being contested until the end, in a race constantly marked by many incidents: 11 riders did not finish.

Everything was set for the start of Moto3, the first race of this Sunday and this new MotoGP season!

Jose Antonio Rueda initially led the race but was soon overtaken by Matteo Bertelle, with Álvaro Carpe in third position for now. Rueda would return to the lead, before Eddie O’Shea and Cormac Buchanan went down at turn 12, which has affected so many riders during the weekend. O’Shea ended his race while Buchanan continued.

David Muñoz, having gained eight positions, was rising and was now in second, and Ryusei Yamanaka moved up to third after a double overtake on Luca Lunetta and Bertelle.

Bertelle and Muñoz then had a series of position exchanges, fighting for second place, but Yamanaka was in the battle and he too climbed to, and later lost, the vice-leadership in the race. Tatchakorn Buasri shortly after also fell and was out of the race.

With 12 laps to go, Rueda yielded the lead to Lunetta, but responded immediately after and returned to “his” position. Taiyo Furusato was another casualty in the race.

Soon after, Lunetta went off track following a somewhat more aggressive maneuver by Muñoz, with the incident placed under investigation.

Yamanaka saw disaster knocking at his door when he was well positioned to be in the fight for victory, but he lost the front of his bike at turn 5 and was out of the race. Nine laps remained until the end. Nicola Carraro in the following lap was also out.

And Muñoz received a Long Lap penalty for irresponsible riding.

Rueda continued at the front, with Muñoz crashing with six laps to go at turn 3.

Ángel Piqueras was the next to fall, in an incident with Joel Kelso at turn 12, once again, and Carpe went wide. Rueda was launched into the lead and only a disaster could prevent him from winning, as the Spaniard had more than a 4-second advantage over Stefano Nepa.

Unsurprisingly, the race then ended with Rueda sealing victory in Buriram, in the championship opener, in categorical fashion!
