The MXGP race had plenty of drama with Lucas Coenen crashing out and suffering a DNF and Romain Febvre taking down Jeffrey Herlings, both of which occurred on a frantic opening lap. In the end, Fernandez would take the win over Febvre, with Tom Vialle third, who kept Herlings back in fourth, with Tom Gajser in fifth.
Ben Watson was the top Brit in 13th while Taylor Hammal impressed with a 19th.
In MX2, Simon Laengenfelder took advantage of a last-lap fall for Guillem Farres to win the MX2 Qualifying Race with Camden McLellan finishing third.
Billy Askew made a superb start and was in second coming through the valley on lap one, and was the top Brit, finishing in 14th, with Joe Brookes 16th. Freddie Bartlett finished 19th but was docked 5 positions, so it was Charlie Richmond in 19th and Ben Mustoe 20th.
In EMX125, Drew Stock in 13th & Hayden Statt in 14th earned some EMX125 points in Moto 1 and were the best finishing Brits in a race won by Ricardo Baur, while in WMX Moto 1, Kiara Fontenasi held off a hard-charging Courtney Duncan to take the win.
