Rocco Landers (Ninja400R.
com/Norton Motorsports/Dr.
Farr) took pole and won his sixth
race in seven starts in the Liqui
Moly Junior Cup Championship
in race one, besting archrival
Dallas Daniels (Quarterley Rac-
ing/On Track Development Ka-
wasaki) by 0.142 seconds. For
Daniels, it was another podium
place but another time—the fifth
in six races—that he's finished

Celtic HSBK Racing's PJ
Jacobsen finished third when
Fong's teammate Sean Dylan
Kelly, who looked to have the fi-
nal spot on the podium clinched,
experienced a mechanical issue
on the last lap.
Gillim now leads the cham-
pionship by seven points over
Fong, 142 to 135. Third sits Es-
P.J. Jacobsen fifth on the Celtic
HSBK Racing Yamaha.
Race two was another good
one, only this time Fong got his
own back for one of the closest
finishes in MotoAmerica Super-
sport history—0.003 of a sec-
ond—after getting the better on
Gillim out of the final corner and
drafting past for the win.
Gillim had studiously pro-
tected the inside line through-
out the race, outbraking Fong
almost everywhere and hold-
ing the lead right until the very
death of the race.
"The plan, it did definitely
Bobby Fong (50) and Hayden Gillim (69) were
once again the class of the field, splitting the
wins between them. Sean Dylan Kelly (40) once
again impressed with fourth and fifth places.
