Second place in Moto2 was good enough to give Latvia’s
Uzare her second successive Grand Prix title of the
season, with Estonia’s Nilbe producing an outstanding
performance to take her maiden Moto win and second
overall, Ortendahl coming home in third place to take the
final step on the Grand Prix podium.
Nilbe led the 10 lap Moto from start-to-finish to run out a
comfortable winner from Uzare by 16.13s, with Ortendahl
making up for a poor start and moving up from lying in
seventh at the end of lap 1 and into the podium place
after passing Jonna Borgstrom on lap 7.
Britain’s Mollie Fearn produced yet another solid
performance finishing in fifth, with Kylie Ellmers getting
her best result of the weekend in sixth.
In Freestyle Team Abu Dhabi’s Rashed Al Mulla thrilled the
crowds during Saturday’s night show to take the win. The
UAE aerial trickster continued his remarkable unbeaten
run opening his three minute session with an explosive
combination of barrel rolls, backflips and 360’s, throwing
in a 540 to round it off.
Italy’s Roberto Mariani took his now accustomed second
place, with Alexander Kuramshin picking up his best
result of the year in third ahead of Paulo Nunes and
Alberto Camerlengo.
In Heat 2 Al Mulla was again the outstanding Freestyler,
improving on his heat 1 scorecard and awarded 93 points
out of a possible 100 to take his second Grand Prix title of
the season, his fifth on the bounce. Italy’s Roberto Mariani
