These two have always kept it pro-
fessional, but we do hope for more
one-on-one battles through the rest
of the season.
Justin Barcia logged a solid
but quiet second-place finish in
Saturday's main event, his fourth
podium of the season. The Troy Lee
Designs/Red Bull/GasGas Fac-
tory Racing Team rider sneaked his
way into a podium position early on
and was able to pass Dylan Fer-
randis for the second spot. He was
never close enough to pass Webb
but maintained a consistent three-
second deficit for the majority of the
race.
"These aren't my best condi-
tions," Barcia said. "I've never been
a great hard-pack rider, so lots of
learning for me and [I'm] stoked to
be on the podium".
IIIMY OWN RACE:
15 DEAN WILSON
9TH (450SX)
Dean Wilson rode a lot be er than his
ninth place would suggest. "Overall,
the night was a step forward for me,"
Wilson said. "My starts were awesome
and that's definitely something to be
proud of. I put in a fairly good ride for
the first half of the main event but un-
fortunately a er that, I got really bad
arm pump. It was pre y uncomfort-
able, and I had to fight through it, but I
just tried to be smart."
51 JUSTIN BARCIA
2ND (450SX)
"It was a good week leading up to this,
I did a lot of tes ng and my team did a
great job helping me get comfortable
and feeling good again," said Jus n
Barcia. "Tonight was very special for
us, our boss from Austria was here, so
that's super awesome to get second
and make him proud in front of these
Texas fans. The track was super chal-
lenging, and I pushed hard and closed
on Cooper a li le, but I just couldn't
make it happen, he rode really well."

ROUND 10 / MARCH 13, 2021
AT&T STADIUM / ARLINGTON, TEXAS
P64
Ken Roczen (94) has been taking on water ever
since winning three straight at Indianapolis.
The Honda rider couldn't do much with a bad
start in Arlington and will give up the red plate,
which he has owned since round three.
Dean Wilson (15) pulled the
trigger quickest on the starts and
showed some great speed. He
slipped back to ninth but that was
still his best finish of the year.
