Diogo Moreira is the first Brazilian to win a World Championship in the elite of motorcycling.
Diogo Moreira, 21-year-old rider from São Paulo, made history as the first man from Brazil to win a elite World Championship in motorcycling, winning Moto2 championship last weekend in Valencia GP. Moreira finished 11, and that was enough to end the championship with 287 points, 30 more than his pursuer, the Spaniard Manu González (which would have given Spain a triple crown in Motorcycling after victories for Marc Márquez in MotoGP and José Antonio Rueda in Moto3).
