ound 14 of 17 of the Monster Energy
Supercross Series already had
talk of clinching championships.
You would think it's a bit early to be talk-
ing like that, especially with four rounds
left in the series, but that's how it was at
Atlanta Motor Speedway. But the unpre-
dictability of racing strikes again as none
of the three points leaders—Eli Tomac
(450SX), Jett Lawrence (250SX East) and
Christian Craig (250SX West)—could get
the job done early, nor could any one of
them come away with a win on what was a
damp day in Atlanta. Series spoilers struck
again in the form of Monster Energy Kawa-
saki's Jason Anderson and Honda HRC's
Hunter Lawrence taking wins and delaying
the championship celebrations.
