There was doubt as to whether he would race, but he lined up, gave it his best shot, and went 4-2-5 for fourth overall. Second overall went to KTM's Manuel Lettenbichler, while Rieju rider Will Hoare finished out the night on the podium. GasGas rider Mitchell Bright - more completed the top five overall.
