Aiming for a 6th consecutive FIM championship, Dougie Lampkin (Montesa-HRC) was the clear winner in Spain, the season opener after the postponement of Round 1 in Luxembourg. Team-mate Takahisa Fujinami (Montesa-HRC), whose only goal is to overthrow Dougie, got a terrific start on day one with a 2nd place finish. He was unable to keep up with Lampkin on day two, partly due to the home advantage of the Spanish riders, but still managed to secure 4th position and make a reasonable start to his season.
