they are really pushing, so I did
not expect this would come so
soon. It is still anyone's game on
any particular Sunday. To have
won three from six until now is
something I wouldn't have imag-
ined. My starts got a bit better,
not great though, and top-five
positions were enough today.
"In the second moto, I could
always see a leader in front of
me, so I could rely on that, even
though it was tough to pass here,
because there was only really
one fast line. In the end I could
control the moto."

Yamaha's Thibault Benistant was
the early leader in MX2 race one,
with Factory GasGas' Simon Lan-
genfelder in second. Benistant
made a crucial mistake early on,
which allowed Langenfelder to
slip by for the lead. The GasGas
rider led the rest of the way to
claim the opening-moto win.
Yamaha teammates Jago
Geerts and Benistant duked it
out, with Geerts taking second
and Benistant third.
Langenfelder grabbed the
holeshot in race two, with Geerts
getting a much better start in
second place. These two stayed
put for almost the entire race, as
Langenfelder cruised to another
smooth race win and overall.
Geerts tipped over on the final
lap but still remounted to finish
second overall.
Andrea Adamo ran third for
most of race two and used 5-3
scores to finish third overall.
Geerts still leads the points by
48 over Adamo.
