Sommers made it to the podium for the first time
this season.McGill was able to take the lead with
Ballance, Cook and Sommers behind him. The four
traded in and out of the lead until Ballance and
Sommers pulled ahead when McGill pitted at the
beginning of the fourth lap.
"I just couldn't
pull away from them," McGill said. "If
Bill isn't at 100 percent now, then I don't know
what we're in for!"
Ballance took the lead on the fourth lap and
charged to the finish, even though he was beginning
to fatigue, and his gas tank was running low.
"I gritted my teeth and started pushing
as hard as I could until the finish line,"
he said

with the new YFZ450R and a a set of freshly

fire and he lost a bumper in a first-turn crash.

again so I just played it safe," Sommers
said. "I was up here last year, but this
means way more than any of the other ones."
