450MX AMA PRO MOTOCROSS CHAMPION ELI TOMAC

Interview
A
fter a Lucas Oil AMA Pro Mo-
tocross Championship season
which saw him race to 11 moto
wins, six overall victories and, in the
end, his third straight AMA 450MX Pro
Motocross Championship, Eli Tomac
sat at a table and poured through a lit-
any of race articles from the 12-round,
24-moto American title fight. Not
necessarily by choice but because
we asked the now-three-time 450MX
Champion to reflect on the 2019 MX
season and review each round of this
year's outdoor championship.
"I feel like Eli Tomac has been a
bit of a broken record the past few
seasons," said Tomac, who turned
27 on November 19, 2019. "We've
had a lot of race wins in supercross,
right? And last year, it was even more
pronounced where I really got in the
groove towards the end of the sea-
son and started clicking off my wins.
I've been strong like that the last few
seasons, but last year it was that way
