On lap two, Hart snuck around Haaker through the rock garden to take the lead, and Abbott followed suit, dropping Haaker to third. Walker eventually passed Haaker for third, again in the rock section, and a short time later displaced Abbott for second. At the finish, the order was Hart, Walker, Haaker, Abbott and Olszowy. Starting in reverse order for moto two, Haaker was the first of the top riders out of the first turn in fourth. Abbott was seventh, with Walker and Hart in eighth and ninth, respectively. By lap four, the cream had risen to the top, and Haaker, Walker, Hart and Abbott occupied the top four positions. Walker pulled to within striking distance of Haaker on the final lap, but Haaker was able to hold on for the win, with Walker sec - ond, Hart third, Olszowy fourth and GasGas-mounted Braxton Hintze in fifth.

Walker was quickest off the line, with Haaker and Hart mov - ing into second and third, re- spectively, by the end of lap one, setting up the big showdown. Walker pulled away and rode a steady race to the finish, while Haaker and Hart battled over second.
