SUPERCROSS MONSTER ENERGY AMA SUPERCROSS, AN FIM WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP P54 BY STEVE COX PHOTOGRAPHY BY BROWNDOG WILSON W hen Eli Tomac is comfort- able, he can be incredibly fast in any conditions. After the resignation of his team's crew chief a few weeks ago, Tomac has finally found his comfort, and he's fast, once again. Tomac carried his momentum from Nashville last week- end into his first-ever home super- cross in Denver (although his Colora- do home is far enough outside of Denver that he still had to fly into the race) and was absolutely domi- nant. He qualified first, then made short work of the field in the 450SX main event to take a seemingly easy victory in front of a very partisan, very jubilant Colorado audience. But points leader Cooper Webb still managed to finish second to Tomac, so the Coloradan will need some help in the final two rounds to pull off his first 450SX title. In the 250SX class, after losing a bunch of points to Dylan Ferrandis at the last Triple Crown event in Hous- ton, Adam Cianciarulo put his stamp of authority on the championship in ROUND 15 / APRIL 13, 2019 DENVER, COLORADO / BRONCOS STADIUM AT MILE HIGH It looks like Eli Tomac has finally found the comfort he was looking for and makes it two in a row in Denver Sorted The Denver win keeps Eli Tomac in championship contention.
