VIDEO: Moto3’s Niklas Ajo makes amazing high-side save, crosses finish line side-saddle on his knees

Best Save in history !!! Finishing the race on his knees !!! WHAAAT !!??

Posted by Renaud Margry on Saturday, June 27, 2015

We don’t usually cover bike news, but this video is un-freaking-believable. Watch as Moto3 rider Niklas Ajo performed a miraculous high-side save on the last corner of the race, to then cross the finish line side-saddle, on his knees.

Unfortunately, the save, as amazing as it looks, slowed the Finn down enough to drop him from eighth position as it happened to 17th as he crossed the line. Not the best result for the RBA Racing Team KTM rider, but it sure made a good show.

As for the Moto3 race itself, Miguel Oliveira won in fabulous style, overtaking Fabio Quartararo on the very last lap to take his second career victory. Championship leader Danny Kent took the last podium position to further extend his points lead.

On the main MotoGP race, Valentino Rossi came up on top after a dramatic clash with championship rival Marc Marquez on the final chicane. The Italian now has three wins up his sleeve in 2015, to lead the championship table by 10 points.
