Courtney Duncan shook off the effects of a fractured finger to close in on a third consecutive women's world motocross championship title at the penultimate round in Spain.
The Dunedin rider finished second in the first race before winning the second to extend her lead over Italian Kiara Fontanesi from nine to 16 points.
Duncan crashed while leading in the first race and spent most of the time between races getting medical attention.
"Pretty good weekend, can't complain too much," Duncan told NZME.
"First moto wasn't quite as good as the second one, took a pretty big crash with a couple laps to go, all my own fault. It was a stupid mistake, but you live and you learn.
