2025 Australian Moto2 - Race Results
Race results from the 2025 Moto2 Australian Grand Prix, won by a huge push from Senna Agius to become the first Australian Moto2 winner at Phillip Island.
Moto2 coped well with the blustery conditions in a race which saw Senna Agius pull away for a home victory in the Moto2 Australian Grand Prix, round nineteen of the championship - as the title battle roared on behind.
The Australian had started second but felt he had the pace to do something special in front of the home crowd, so went for the lead into turn one and made his move hold.
The Liqui Moly Dynavolt Intact GP rider coped with an early challenge from Diogo Moreira, who was soon pulled into a battle with Manuel Gonzalez and took his chance to build a lead.
A gap of over a second appeared by lap nine, with the distance between Agius and his rivals only growing as the laps ticked down.
The #81 bike lead over the line by 3.684 as Agius could afford to ease back from his five second advantage to guarantee the win, - the first for a home rider in Moto2 at Phillip Island and Agius’ second of the season building on winning success back at Silverstone. Agius celebrated in true Australian style, with a shoey on the podium.
The chasing group covered second to seventh, with a late push from rookie David Alonso, who started sixth seeing the Colombian too exhausted to wave at the crowd on his lap back to parc ferme for Aspar.
Alonso held second after making hos move for the place with four laps remaining, passing Brazilian Diogo Moreira, who held second for much of the race on his way to third after the Italtrans rider started from pole.
Daniel Holgado made up places late in the race. The rookie started fifth but dropped back to be fighting to stay in the top ten over the opening laps. The Aspar rider rallied for an impressive fourth.
Jake Dixon also pulled out a recovery ride after dropping back d losing touch- the only Boscoscuro in the fight for the podium places, the Elf Marc VDS rider clawed his way back to fifth at the chequered flag.
Barry Baltus was on fire over the closing laps. Spending much of the race in eleventh the Belgian got a second wind and rapidly moved through the pack - his last overtake came on the last lap as, determined, the Fantic rider went around the outside of Manuel Gonzalez foe sixth.
Those moves pushed Gonzalez off the rostrum and down to seventh on the second Dynavolt bike, though the Spaniard was quick to head to parc ferme to congratulate his race winning teammate.
Albert Arenas was closing on the pack over the final laps but could not quite bridge the gap back, finishing eighth for Italjet Gresini.
Aron Canet was ninth on the second Fantic bike with Ayumu Sasaki fading slightly but holding on for a top ten finish for RW Idrofoglia.
