Due to the extreme weather conditions, the Event Management crew decision to end the MX2 race two prematurely and completely cancel MXGP race two. Despite the extremely testing conditions Wilvo Yamaha MXGP’s Shaun Simpson handled it better than anyone and supplied an impressive win in the MXGP class. Simpson finished just over seven seconds ahead of Red Bull KTM Factory Racing’s Glenn Coldenhoff.
