Jake Dixon was back on the Moto2 podium and loving life at Sepang after a difficult weekend with the Inde GasGas Aspar. Adrift from Friday, Dixon openly admitted he was struggling until his team changed direction.

The result, a second row start, from fourth position on Sunday and a dramatic end of race battle with championship leader Augusto Fernandez. “I left myself so much hard work, as per usual!” Dixon exclaimed from Parc Fermé on Sunday afternoon. “I got hit on the first lap and I thought I had a problem with my bike so I took it easy for a lap to see if everything was alright.

It was all alright so I settled into my pace, trying not to use too much rear tyre and then chipped away towards the two in front.

Eventually got there from about two seconds but by the time I got there, I used so much energy.“Then me and Augusto started battling and it was hard.
