Having lost the first Most WorldSSP race to his great championship rival Steven Odendaal, and only finishing fourth himself, points leader Dominique Aegerter put on an SCX rear tyre and went for it from the off in Race Two.
He won by just over a second, in a race that finished very differently from how it started for some riders.
Philipp Öttl (Kawasaki Puccetti Racing) held his usual early watching-while-pushing brief in second but a serious charge from young Spanish rider Manuel Gonzalez (Yamaha ParkinGo Team) halted Aegerter and Öttl’s attempted joint escape.
After Jules Cluzel (GMT94 Yamaha) was taken out of contention by another rider the leading four started to become a five and then a six, as Odendaal started to close in to the leaders. Thanks in part to a new lap record of 1’35.509 on lap ten he caught and then passed Öttl for third place.
Odendaal eventually also passed Gonzalez for second but Aegerter proved just too far ahead to catch at the flag and instead Odendaal had to fight Gonzalez again to make sure of second place and 20 points.
Behind the top three, Öttl held on for fourth place, with Luca Bernardi (CM Racing Yamaha) close behind.
Caricasulo was sixth, Valetin Debise (GMT94 Yamaha) seventh, with Niki Tuuli (MV Agusta Corse Clienti) just behind in eighth.
Can Öncü (Turkish Racing Team Kawasaki) started well but finished slowly in ninth, with Raffaele De Rosa (Orelac Racing VerdNatura Kawasaki) rounding out the top ten.
Randy Krummenacher (EAB Racing Team) crashed out.
In the championship Aegerter has 207 points, Odendaal 170 and Öttl 137. Gonzalez jumps up in fourth with 120 points.
