Tom Vialle is back! The new HRC Honda man took the holeshot and never looked back – a perfect first race back in MXGP even if it is just qualifying. The Frenchman was silky smooth.
Lucas Coenen got close at times and put the pressure on but never really got close enough to make a pass stick.
Andrea Adamo will be delighted with his third spot on his Factory KTM.
Maxime Renaux held off Romain Febvre to bring home a solid fourth position.
Jeffrey Herlings was battling for the top five before a crash dropped him way down the order before he finished twelfth.
Tim Gajser had a big moment colliding with a back marker – scary! But thankfully he is okay and ended up picking up tenth to secure one championship point.
