Jessy Nelson takes yet another holeshot! He’s followed by Blake Wharton, Wil Hahn, Martin Davalos, Eli Tomac and Jason Anderson. Ivan Tedesco, Justin Barcia and a slew of others went down in the first corner.
Wharton makes quick work of Nelson and takes the lead. Only a handful of laps later, Tomac is into second going after Wharton. At minute 13 of the moto, Tomac makes his way by Wharton for the lead.
Jason Anderson, Ken Roczen and Blake Baggett are absolutely going for it. You could throw a blanket over these three.
Ten minutes plus two laps to go and the top ten order is Tomac, Wharton, Anderson, Roczen, Barcia, Musquin, Hahn, Nelson and Baker.
Baggett and Wharton go at it for the last 4 laps, but Baggett gets by him on the last lap for second. Tomac goes 1-1 on the day!
