Sitting in third place was 2022

aboard his Acerbis KTM. "I took
about a fourth-place start after
taking a rock to the face by
Corbin Wade," Klein said. "I just
tried to get in behind Joe, and he
is a lot easier to follow. I had to
pit at the alternate pit, and after
that I couldn't get back to him so
I had to try to keep the speed I
had following him."
Klein finished just over three
minutes behind Wasson.
