Sergio García secured the title of Moto2 Rookie of the Year. The Pons Wegow Los40 rider is currently in 13th place in the championship.
Despite three consecutive rounds without scoring points, now being 25th at Sepang, García is now out of reach for the other rookies. He scored 84 points so far.
The second-best rookie, in 19th place, is Darryn Binder (Liqui Moly Husqvarna Intact GP/Kalex), who is 52 points behind with 50 still up for grabs until the end of the season. The South African did not participate in this race following a severe crash in the third practice session.
