ROUND 6 / FEBRUARY 12, 2022 ANGEL STADIUM OF ANAHEIM / ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA P54 SUPERCROSS I MONSTER ENERGY AMA SUPERCROSS SERIES MYOWNRACE like the biggest factor of tonight was the whoops and I just tried to be smart—this was one of those races where you could gain some and lose a lot, so I'm happy with taking another top-five finish." 1 COOPER WEBB 8TH 450SX The defending Supercross Champion s ll hasn't shown the speed and aggression that earned him his second tle last year. Cooper Webb again struggled just to finish inside the top 10. "It wasn't the best night, I'm s ll struggling with some stuff, but we charged hard all day," Webb said. "I got a decent start in the main and kind of got shuffled back. It's not where we want to be by any means, but I rode to the best of my ability tonight with what I've got." 7 AARON PLESSINGER 9TH 450SX Things haven't been much be er for Webb's Red Bull KTM teammate Aaron Plessinger, either. But the day didn't start that way. "I was feeling really good for tonight," Plessinger said. "I actually quali- fied the best I have this year, and I rode well in the heat race, ended up second. In the main, I was feeling really good and confident, but I just got out there and didn't ride like myself—I made a lot of mistakes and just didn't execute. I need to be be er." Malcolm Stewart finished in the top five for the fifth straight race. For the third week in a row, Marvin Musquin has been KTM's top rider.
