Jimmy Clochet (Kawasaki) raced to victory in todayā€™s second EMXOpen moto at the MXGP of Pietramurata ā€“ his third win from four starts ā€“ but a 13th-placed finish for the Frenchman in the opening race meant he ended the day in fifth overall.
Instead, it was Latviaā€™s Toms Macuks (KTM) who topped the podium with 2-2 finishes from Kim Savaste (KTM) who went 1-5 and series leader Karel Kutsar (KTM) who finished third in both races.
As a result, Savaste has taken a point out of Kutsarā€™s advantage which now stands at 11 and with just one round to go weā€™re all set for a dramatic conclusion at the Trentino circuit on Saturday.
Best of the Brits was Scotlandā€™s John Adamson (AAA KTM) whose 6-7 card was good enough for sixth on the day, three places ahead of Dan Thornhill (Cab Screens Deos Group Honda) who went 10-8.
