Red Bull KTM's Miguel Oliveira has kept his Moto3 championship hopes alive with a stunning win in an incident-packed grand prix at Phillip Island.
British Leopard Racing rider Danny Kent had the chance to clinch the Moto3 world championship on Sunday but he crashed out in a four-rider incident with 10 laps to go, leaving the Spaniard to claim a brilliant win.
"I just realised that the championship is still on," Oliveira said.
"I cannot believe it - what a crazy race.
"I'm so happy for my team - this was a great win."
