Overview
- Hunter Lawrence won both of his motos and Jett Lawrence took the MXGP opener before charging to third in the finale to secure the low team score for Australia.
- The United States finished second over France on a tiebreaker as Eli Tomac rebounded from a poor 35th gate draw in qualifying to take second in the final race.
- Justin Cooper, a late call-up replacing Haiden Deegan, topped MX2 practice, placed third in MX2 qualifying, and was the highest-finishing 250 in Moto 1 en route to two top-10s.
- RJ Hampshire’s multiple crashes, including a retirement in the last moto, inflated Team USA’s tally and proved pivotal in the final standings.
- Australia earned the best Sunday starts by winning the MXGP and Open qualifiers, and the repeat is the event’s first back-to-back by any nation since France’s 2014–2018 run.
