With just five laps to go, Rea had another close moment with the fr👍ont end of his Kawasaki which allow🦹ed Redding to get close.
Redding tried to get ahead going into turn one on the following lap, however, Rea made a nice switch-back to stay in front. Rea’s defence only lasted one more lap though, as Redding gai⭕ned second place at turn 13.
