Back to MX1, Antonio Cairoli is still the points leader – he finished third overall today. And World Motocross Champion David Philippaerts finished second overall today, and is in second position in the points chase behind Cairoli. Former World Motocross Champion and ‘hometown’ rider Mickael Pichon raced again for Honda, finishing seventh overall.
