The European Union made their stand in the second 250 moto from High Point. In the early goings former MX2 world champions Marvin Musquin and Ken Roczen were joined by long-time American GP rider Zach Osborne, who is back in the States full-time, up front early on with rookies Jeremy Martin and Joey Savatgy also in the mix.
The European duo quickly dashed to the front and separated from Osborne and the rookies—meaning the battle for the overall would come down to the teammates. Roczen rode the back fender of Musquin all moto, trying multiple lines to rattle the Frenchman. Roczen pushed Musquin to the limit but was never able to make a pass stick. Musquin held on for his first career win and second consecutive overall.
Starts have been a hindrance for Eli Tomac all season, with High Point proving to be no expectation. Another bad start in the second moto left Tomac just outside the top ten. Tomac was able to make late passes on Martin and Savatgy to secure fourth, but lost valuable points to Roczen and Musquin. Savatgy held off Martin for fifth, with Anderson, Blake Baggett and Justin Bogle following.
