Millsaps seemed to meld with the track quite well, as he often does on rougher, less 'precise' surfaces and layouts. Davi ran in the top 3 the entire race, following Alessi and Villopoto early on before getting past the fallen Alessi. Had it not been for that big #7 San Manuel Yamaha going by on about lap 15, Millsaps would've ended up a solid 2nd. He settled for 3rd though, which is just as well because there was just no stopping the Stewart freight-train that was coming up behind him.
