May (Geoff May Racing/Vision- Wheel.com Honda) rounded out the top 10. Race two would again see Gagne clear off into the dis- tance, although this time Peters- en would break free of eventual third-place finisher Scholtz and Fong to take his best result in his MotoAmerica career. Herrin, Barbera, Anthony, Su- perbike Cup winner/first Stock 1000 rider Jake Lewis (Altus Motorsports Suzuki) and Travis Wyman (Travis Wyman Racing BMW) rounded out the top 10. It was a wretched day for Ducati duo Baz and Wyman, with Baz's engine expiring on lap three and Wyman crashing on lap seven and breaking his right elbow. In the championship, Gagne charges into the lead with 125 points. He's now won every race he's finished in 2021, and leads the way ahead of Scholtz at 107 with Herrin third at 83. Stock 1000 There was a single Stock 1000 race at Road America, and polesitter Geoff May looked very strong in the early going aboard his Honda. It's early days for May with the all-new- for-2021 motorcycle, and as the race went on, the lack of seat time and also time to manipu- late the electronics on the bike conspired against him. Altus Motorsports Suzuki rider Jake Lewis overtook May and went on to win his second race of MYOWNRACE 1 RICHIE ESCALANTE 5-1 SSP "Sam [Lochoff] started very good in the first couple corners," said Supersport racer Richie Escalante a er race two. "So, when he have a li le bit of a mistake in turn one I said, 'Okay, it's me to pass him as fast as possible and then take one perfect lap or almost enough to try.' Then a very good lap in the first two laps and just consistent. It's a more fun race than yesterday com- pared to today, but I'm happy to win again. I'm so happy about that. Thanks to all my team. It's me to push it for the next races. I think last year, Ridge and Laguna is one of my difficult races where I need to work and be ready for the next race." ROAD RACE FIM NORTH AMERICA ROAD RACING CHAMPIONSHIP ROUND 3 / JUNE 11-13, 2021 ROAD AMERICA / SHEBOYGAN COUNT Y, WISCONSIN P70 Although he had to fight through the pack to get it done, Jake Lewis (85) took his second Stock 1000 win of the year.
