The Spring Creek MX Park in Millville, Minnesota saw Yamaha rider Josh Grant hold the lead for most of the race to win in Moto 1. Grant passed Suzuki’s Chad Reed in the second lap, after which Reed stuck on Grant for the rest of the race, coming up short of the win nearly two seconds behind. Davi Millsaps stuck in third place for the majority of the race until lap 12 where he experienced problems that forced him to drop out.
On lap 15, Honda rider Ivan Tedesco, in fourth place, tried to fight off Michael Byrne and Tommy Hahne but came up unsuccessful. Following suit from Hahne and Byrne, Andrew Short began a passing attempt on his teammate, Tedesco, but couldn’t pull it off and finished one second behind Tedesco in sixth. Reed and Grant swept the field finishing nearly a whole minute ahead of Michael Byrne who finished third.
Moto 2 started with Ivan Tedesco, Honda Red Bull Racing, in the lead. Chad Reed took the lead from Tedesco at the beginning of the race and finished in first. Tedesco finished Moto 2 in second. On lap six, Millsaps overtook Brayton, KTM, for third. Suzuki rider, Byrne, overtook Short to move into fourth followed by Kyle Regal, Brayton, and Cody Copper. Josh Grant was unfortunate to experience a bad start, forcing him to battle the field from next-to-last, with an eventual finish in the top ten.
