SUPERCROSS MONSTER ENERGY AMA SUPERCROSS, AN FIM WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP ROUND 11 / MARCH 16, 2019 LUCAS OIL STADIUM / INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA P66 run, but Webb still managed to put two more points on Tomac, who now trails Webb by 21. "It was a tough race," Webb said. "I didn't get the best start so I had to make some passes. Then I stalled the bike and lost a couple positions. I was pretty bummed on that because I felt like I was in a good position to win. It wasn't my best main event." Behind Tomac in fourth came Jus- tin Barcia in what was his first race back since suffering a concussion while practicing and sitting out the last two races. Remarkably, it was Barcia's first top-five finish since win- ning the series opener in Anaheim. SWEEPS The Indianapolis Supercross marked the third 450SX podium sweep for KTM of 2019, with Marvin Musquin, Blake Baggett and Cooper Webb. During the week, Webb and Musquin train togeth- er at the Baker's Factory (trainer Aldon Baker's place), while Baggett trains on his own at the Chupacabra Ranch just down the road. "I put up a new internet tower, it's 90 feet, so I'm going to put up a camera to see what Coop [Cooper Webb] and Marv [Musquin] are doing at Aldon's," Baggett joked. "I'm going to spy on them. I'm only three miles away, so I think I've got line-of-sight now. Briefly... Eli Tomac did not have the fire in his eyes like he had the week before at Daytona. Austin Forkner breezed to another 250SX East main- event win.
