Australian rider Jack Miller won his third Moto3 race of the season as he took the chequered flag in the French motorcycle grand prix at Le Mans.
Miller overtook Spaniards Efren Vazquez and Alex Rins in one audacious move to take the lead in the 23rd lap.
The Australian rider shut the door in the final lap as Vazquez attempted to pass him on the inside.
"I did to him what he did to me earlier in the race," Miller told Eurosport television on Sunday.
Miller's victory extends his lead in the overall standings after five races of the championship.
Spaniard Marc Marquez meanwhile pulled off a stunning comeback on Sunday to earn his fifth win in as many races this season.
Marquez slipped to 10th place in the opening lap despite taking pole position a day earlier.
The reigning MotoGP world champion quickly made up ground on the Bugatti track and overtook Valentino Rossi on the 13th lap before pulling away to finish 1.486 seconds clear of Rossi.
In the Moto2 category, Mika Kallio of Finland moved within seven points of overall leader Esteve Rabat of Spain by winning his second straight race.
The next race is the Italian Grand Prix on June 1.
