Robert made things even a little harder on himself after he and points leader Giacomo Redondi went down in the first turn.
Robert (FMF KTM) brushed himself off, got back on his bike, and set sail after the pack. He reeled everyone in by the second lap and then pulled away for the impressive victory.
Redondi (Red Bull KTM) did nearly as well by working his way up to second at the finish and maintaining his championship points lead. The Italian got into second on the fourth of what would be a nine-lap race and ended up taking the checkered flag 38 seconds behind Robert.
Third in the race went to defending champion Gary Sutherlin (Suzuki). He held third the whole way while overcoming a few mechanical bugs along the way.
Justin Wallis (Yamaha) nabbed fourth, Travis Damon (Honda) fifth and Dante Oliveira (KTM) sixth.
Some of those who started the race but didn’t complete all nine laps, included first-lap leader Zach Bell, Ricky Dietrich and Justin Seeds.
