Jett Lawrence reasserted his position as fastest man in the class with a holeshot to chequers victory in the first dry main event since A1 – and very similar performance!
Jett had Sexton and Tomac second and third but no-one could stay on his pace on the rutted track. Roczen passed Tomac for third as Eli strangely dropped all the way back to 10th!
Jett said: “It feels good because almost died out there twice, I’m just glad I got out if here in once piece! I think Jett Lawrence has finally showed up to a race!
Chase Sexton has the red plate just one point ahead of Lawrence with Plessinger just one point further back!

A huge first turn pile-up claimed Vialle, Deegan, Ferry and two PC Kawasaki riders in an explosive first turn in the main event – but for once Austin Forkner wasn’t one of them!
Forkner took the holeshot as his teammates McAdoo and Hammaker got their bikes stuck together in the first turn mess that left them, Deegan and Vialle all lapped before they even got going with their bent bikes.

Forkner controlled the race up front as Max Anstie moved into second, passing Hymas with Daxton Bennick eventually taking third in his debut after a mistake ended Hymas hopes of a podium. Guillem Farres took eighth in his 250 supercross debut.
