Motul MX2 moto one:
DPH Motorsport Yamaha’s Hayden Mellross hit the front early on in the opening MX2 moto, but it was Egan Mastin (Davey Motorsports KTM) who stole the top spot in a matter of laps to take a convincing race win and the points lead. Mellross maintained second for the next portion of the race before dropping to fourth, as pole-sitter Kyle Webster (Penrite CRF Honda Racing) secured the runner-up spot to cross the line in second. Wilson Todd (DPH Motorsport Yamaha) soldiered through for third after a heavy crash in yesterday’s practice, while the top five was rounded out by Mitch Evans (Serco Yamaha) and Hamish Harwood (Davey Motorsport KTM). Sixth through to 10th was completed by Jay Wilson (Raceline Pirelli KTM), Dylan Wills (KSF Racing Husqvarna), Isaac Ferguson (KTM), Maximus Purvis (Yamaha) and Tomas Ravenhorst (Yamaha), while early leader Mellross lodged a DNF score after pulling in with a mechanical malfunction.

Waters maintained second through to the flag, as KTM Motocross Racing Team’s Kirk Gibbs was third, briefly running in second before a crash relegated him.

Motul MX2 moto two:
Todd shot out to the lead following a brilliant hole-shot with Mastin in tow, the pair would battle for the position – which would ultimately determine the championship – up until the halfway mark, where Todd made a costly mistake, allowing Mastin to go by. Todd remounted, but Mastin’s advantage proved too much, and the New South Welshman would be crowned the 2017 MX2 champion after taking the race win. Webster pushed through from a mediocre start for third, as Mellross and Evans concluded the top five. Jayden Rykers (Raceline Pirelli KTM) and Wilson were sixth and seventh, followed by Connor Tierney (WBR Bulk Nutrients), Wills and Hugh McKay (WBR Bulk Nutrients). Mastin was first for the day ahead of Todd and Webster, while the top three in the championship would be credited Mastin, Todd and Evans.

Thor MX1 moto two:
Ferris would once again hit the lead with another commanding hole-shot, he went onto outclass the field at the demanding Coolum circuit to take a convincing moto victory. The premier class soon settled into position, with Waters taking a comfortable second ahead of Gibbs, as Long broke through for his best moto result of the year to place fourth. Metcalfe was fifth, followed by Mosig, Nathan Crawford (Mega Fuels Monster Energy Kawasaki), Peters, Styke and Milesevic who completed the top 10. For the day it was Ferris who took his ninth overall victory ahead of Waters and Gibbs, and with Ferris wrapping up the title last weekend, Gibbs and Mosig would be awarded the final top three positions in the championship.
