Poor Jo Shimoda. After a perfect block pass from Christian Craig to retake the lead after Shimoda originally passed Craig amidst red cross flag confusion, Shimoda tried to return the favour but crashed himself!
The Japanese star then crashed at the end of the race in the whoops while just inside the top ten and was forced to retire in a race that went so well until it unravelled quickly in Perth!
