News: Alonso, Montella and Guevara took the title in the FIM CEV in Valencia

The FIM CEV Repsol round in Valencia saw excitement right through to the last race of the day.

David Alonso -in the European Talent Cup- and Yari Montella -in the Moto2 European Championship- had been crowned champions on Saturday, but it was on Sunday that the FIM Moto3 Junior World Championship winner was decided. Izan Guevara took the title ahead of rival Xavi Artigas.

In Saturday's race, Xavi Artigas suffered a problem on the starting grid and had to begin the race from pit lane. Izan Guevara took advantage and claimed his fifth victory of the year, also taking the lead of the FIM Moto3 Junior World Championship standings. He defended the position with two third places in today's two races, allowing him to earn the title. Both of the top two finishers have been confirmed as Motorcycle World Championship participants for next season.

In the Moto2 European Championship, second place on Saturday was enough for Yari Montella to win the title, completing an intelligent ride. Zaccone won the first race -his third victory of the year. Montella put the finishing touches to the season with his eighth win in the final race of the 2020 campaign.

Alonso was proclaimed European Talent Cup champion on Saturday. The Colombian did so by winning the weekend' first race. He also placed on the rostrum with second in the final race, behind first-time winner Marcos Ruda.
