LUCAS OIL AMA PRO MOTOCROSS CHAMPIONSHIPS
ROUND 8 / JULY 20, 2019
SPRING CREEK RACEWAY / MILLVILLE, MINNESOTA
P66
Webb was the top qualifier
one race ago, at RedBud, and
he repeated that this weekend at
Millville's Spring Creek Raceway
before getting two good starts
and going on to win both motos,
on a day when heavy rains and
threats of lightning shortened
morning qualifying/practice to
one session and delayed the
start of the races themselves by
an hour. And, in typical Webb
fashion, he was more than will-
ing to fight for it.
And Monster Energy/Pro
Circuit Kawasaki's Adam Cian-
ciarulo has recently earned a
reputation for tenacity, too. After
his heart-breaking loss of the
250SX West championship in
May, Cianciarulo has put his
boot on the 250MX champion-
ship's throat and refuses to let
up until the job is done. He
began the series by winning the
first four overalls in a row, and
each time one of his competitors
has stepped up to knock him off
the top step, he has responded
IIIMY OWN RACE:
196 HUNTER LAWRENCE
3RD 250MX (1-6)
Hunter Lawrence is s ll looking for his
first overall win, but he put on a clinic
in the opening moto at Millville, leading
every lap of the race in the mud to take
the win. He was balked by a poor start in
moto two but s ll managed third overall
with a 1-6 score. "Over the gate, I had a
good jump, but I clicked a false neutral
between second and third gear, so that
sort of messed up my start," Lawrence
said of moto two. "But, hey, that hap-
pens. So, we were last, and we tried to
dice through the first two turns as best as
we could. It was a great first moto, and I
felt my riding was good coming through
the pack [in moto two], especially with
the condi ons."
26 ALEX MARTIN
2ND 250MX (2-3)
Alex Mar n had a great day at his home
(literally) race on Saturday. He and his
brother Jeremy grew up with the Spring
Creek racetrack in their backyard, but
this wasn't a breakthrough for Mar n. He
likely would've finished on the podium at
RedBud, the previous round, if his motor-
cycle hadn't broken in the first moto. At
Millville, Mar n finished 2-2 on the track,
but was credited with a 2-3 score a er

before Webb grabbed his first win of

returned after injury and surprised
everyone with second overall.
