In the first 250 moto, Cody Webb and Austin Forkner diced back and forth on the first lap. Webb passed him for good on the second lap and led the rest of the way to take the win. Joey Savatgy worked his way up to second and pulled up to Webb’s rear wheel a couple times late in the race, but was never able to pass him and settled for second. Alex Martin finished a distant third.

As he’s done most of the season, Roczen started a little slowly, but quickly worked his way past Justin Bogle and Justin Barcia to take a lead that he never relinquished, and cruised to a 13-second win. Eli Tomac finished second, but never got close to Roczen.

In the second moto, Savatgy had an early lead, but tipped over allowing Shane McElrath to take the lead. McElrath didn’t hold on for long and Alex Martin held the top spot for the middle half of the race. Savatgy went down hard and fell way back in the pack. Cooper Webb led another late-race charge to take the lead from Alex Martin. Zach Osborne also managed to get past Alex Martin late, with the top 3 all finishing within 2 seconds of each other. The win puts Webb in the points lead.

Justin Bogle found himself at the front of the second 450 moto again. About halfway through the first lap, Eli Tomac passed Bogle for the lead. About 2 laps later, Roczen passed Tomac on Larocco’s Leap. Tomac had nothing for Roczen and Roczen checked out, winning by over 30 seconds.
