Brown's teammate, Wienen, came off the line right behind Brown and took over the lead before the end of lap one. Wienen then put his head down and rode his own race to the checkers and the moto 2 win.

"Really happy to get to that top spot on the box again today. My YFZ450R was really working great out on the track and I was able to maneuver it how I needed. I had a bad start to moto 1 and knew I really needed to focus on the gate drop for moto 2 and I was able to come out towards the front and make the pass for the lead early on," said Wienen.
