Australia getting 1-20, Plessinger and Webb scored 7-9, the Dutch went 5-18, and the French 4-12.

Jett Lawrence: It was really good but we have to deal with vision and I had mistakes with my goggles and self-inflicted mistakes, but we need to conserve our energy for the next one. The track is rutted and slick and we need to change some things on the bike, to make it easier for me for the final moto.
