Lorenzo Dalla Porta clinched the title in the Moto3 category after securing his third win of the season. The 22-year old Italian also took advantage of an early crash of his main rival Arón Canet on lap 3 to eliminate any remaining hopes of the Spaniard winning the championship. With two races remaining, Dalla Porta headed to the penultimate round in Sepang with a comfortable lead in the standings by a further 72 points ahead of Canet in 2nd place.
As of 2022, Dalla Porta is the first and only Italian rider to win the lightweight class title since its introduction in 2012.
