The rock garden was the most
technical part of the course, and
most of the passing occurred
there. 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.
Haaker, Walker and Hart en-
tered the final moto tied in points
for the overall win, all three with
four points, meaning moto three
would be a "winner-take-all" affair.
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. Haaker got jammed up
between two logs midway into
