place finishes. Although he did
not win either race, the Red Bull
KTM rider showed consistency
throughout the day and avoided
his usual costly mistakes. This
marked the seventh Grand Prix
victory of his career and allowed
him to extend his championship
lead to 35 points as the series
heads toward the halfway mark.
Guillem Farres secured another
overall podium for Triumph Rac-
ing Factory Team. The Spaniard
dominated the opening moto and
charged past defending cham-
pion Simon Laengenfelder to
take his fifth win of the season.
A difficult start in race two left
him outside the top 15, but the
Spanish rider fought back to fifth
at the checkered flag. 1-5 scores
gave him enough points to secure
the runner-up spot and keep him
second in the championship
standings.
Camden McLellan rounded out
the podium and put two Triumph
riders on the overall podium. The
South African rider recovered from
an early crash in race one and
clawed his way to a seventh-place
finish and then fired back with a big
win in race two. He is now third in
the championship standings.
Liam Everts narrowly missed
the podium despite finishing third
in the second moto. Kawasaki's
Mathis Valin completed the top
five overall after a string of po-
dium finishes in recent rounds.
The biggest championship
development came from Simon
Laengenfelder, who failed to capi-
talize on two strong starts and
finished outside the top 10. The
disappointing result dropped him
to fourth in the championship
standings, allowing both Farres
and McLellan to gain significant
ground.
The series heads to the red dirt
of Agueda, Portugal next week-
end for the MXGP of Portugal. CN
