Moto two saw a strong ride from Monster Energy Kawasaki’s Blake Baggett who suffered a sixth place finish in moto one. After an average start Baggett tracked down Barcia and took control of the lead, Barcia held onto second place while Tomac was third.

Overall Barcia’s 1-2 score landed him his second overall win of the year, while Tomac used a 2-3 combination to take the runner-up spot. Baggett was able to salvage a podium position in Washington with his 6-1 scorecard for the day.
