In the 250 Class, Monster Energy/Pro Circuit/Kawasaki’s Adam Cianciarulo added to his dominant start to the season with his fifth victory in six rounds this season.

He went 1-2 for the overall ahead of moto two winner Dylan Ferrandis (Monster Energy/Star/Yamaha), while his teammate Justin Cooper was consistent to complete the overall podium. Australian Hunter Lawrence (Geico Honda) was 11th overall after going 9-13.
