P64
grabbed the holeshot and nev-
er looked back. While fellow
Frenchman Marvin Musquin
ultimately challenged him late
aboard his Red Bull KTM, Pour-
cel was able to break through for
his first moto win of the season
with relative ease.
The start of the second moto
resulted in more of the same for
Pourcel who captured yet another
holeshot and the early lead. How-
ever, 250-class points leader Jer-
emy Martin continued to gain on
Pourcel and eventually made the
pass to take over the lead.
"I think Jeremy and I, we were
kind of riding the same pace for
15 minutes," Pourcel said. "He
said on the podium that he was
checking all my lines. And then I
think he got all of the good lines
from me and he got the better
line whenever I was a little slower
than him."
Martin was able to best Pour-
cel for the moto-two win, but
the Frenchmen's 1-2 score was
enough to capture the overall win,
the seventh of his 250-class ca-
reer and first of the 2014 season.
Pourcel added, "I kind of want-
ed to win both motos but Jeremy
was a little bit faster. It was fun.
Winning here is good memories."
