Musquin is king of Lille!

Marvin Musquin took his second dominating victory of the weekend at Lille with an impressive holeshot to chequered flag victory and lapping up to eighth place.

Justin Barcia finished a distant second but was gifted the position after Malcolm Stewart crashed. Barcia admitted he didn’t ride as good as he would like too at Lille, and no doubt will get to work once he gets back to the USA to try and find some speed before A1.

Christian Craig used his smooth technique to navigate the ruts to take third with Soubeyras fourth, Craig taking third overall on the tie-break from the impressive Frenchman. 2015 MXGP world championship Romain Febvre crashed out as he was fighting for sixth position.

Musquin though is undoubtedly in that elite group of supercross riders along with Tomac, Dungey and Roczen, and as they head to A1 his confidence will be sky high.
