Team Estrella Galicia 0,0 Marc VDS rider Jack Miller had a solid ride into another impressive finish at Termas de Rio Hondo, as the Queenslander crossed the line just behind Octo Pramac Racing's Scott Redding for his second consecutive top ten in ninth.
After starting 17th on the gird, Miller struggled for bike balance with a full tank in the opening laps, but a storming second half of the race saw the Australian finish less than two tenths of a second behind eighth and bag some big points once again. Next up is Texas, where the goal is again the top ten - and holding onto his run of momentum in the final race before the paddock heads back to Europe.

Jack Miller, P9: “The race was the best I felt all weekend and finally I was able to put together the speed I knew we had when it meant something. I made a good start and was sitting with a fast group although I wasn’t comfortable with a full fuel tank in the opening laps and made a couple of small mistakes and lost some time. But there were some positives from the weekend and some solid points for the championship. My goal is to be always top ten this season and so far I’m doing that so hopefully we can keep the momentum going at the next race in Texas.”
