ROUND 2 / SEPTEMBER 16, 2023 CHICAGOLAND SPEEDWAY, JOLIET, ILLINOIS MOTOCROSS I SUPERMOTOCROSS WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP P80 5. Dylan Ferrandis (Yam) 6-5 6. Justin Barcia (GG) 4-10 7. Cooper Webb (Yam) 8-7 8. Phil Nicoletti (Yam) 7-9 9. Jason Anderson (Kaw) 13-6 10. Colt Nichols (Kaw) 12-8 250SMX Overall 1. Hunter Lawrence (Hon) 1-1 2. Jo Shimoda (Kaw) 2-2 3. Haiden Deegan (Yam) 3-3 4. RJ Hampshire (Hus) 5-4 5. Maximus Vohland (KTM) 8-5 6. Jordon Smith (Yam) 10-8 7. Seth Hammaker (Kaw) 9-9 8. Levi Kitchen (Yam) 6-12 9. Ryder Difrancesco (Kaw) 12-7 10. Jalek Swoll (Hus) 7-13 young rookie in race two and forced him to settle for third. While more consistent than last week, Deegan now drops to third in the overall SMX rankings. "Where I'm at is kind of right on the bubble," Deegan said. "The only thing I can do to win this thing is to win. So that's what I'm going there to do, just try and win." RJ Hampshire and Max Vohland improved as the night wore on and rounded out the top five overall in the 250SMX. CN 450SMX Overall 1. Jett Lawrence (Hon) 1-2 2. Ken Roczen (Suz) 3-1 3. Chase Sexton (Hon) 2-3 4. Aaron Plessinger (KTM) 5-4 on the night puts him second in the SMX points. "We know the issues now, but it's nobody's fault," Shimoda said about the second moto. "I did have to slow down, which was a bum- mer. Whoever takes the overall next weekend takes the whole thing, and I knew it would be like this." Deegan came in hot again for the first race of the night. The co- points leader grabbed a big hole- shot and led for the first half of the race but a mistake before the big finish-line jump allowed Lawrence to slip by. His rival, Shomoda, also passed late in the race. Shimoda and Lawrence got away from the Haiden Deegan led early in race one.
