Crown consistency, but the
"New Jett," as he has referred
to his new mindset, kept things
under control in all three mains.
After winning the first two, race
three wasn't crucial for the over

all win, so he turned up the heat
only
when needed, ultimately
finishing less than two seconds
ahead of Chase Sexton. He's
just the second rider ever to
win all three Triple Crown main
events. Roczen did it in Glendale
in 2020 on a Honda.

Lawrence's clean sweep of the
night might sound a little less-
than-exciting on paper, but it
was nothing of the sort. Instead,
the shorter sprint-like format
produced some of the closest

being
just over three seconds.
Lawrence's win in race one was
also his first Triple Crown race

4TH (5-6-5) 450SX
Jason Anderson stayed in the hunt
most of the night and finished just off
the podium. "I consistently ran in the
top five and had a few battles with the
leaders, I just have to work on making
fewer mistakes and staying up in the
front where we have the speed to be."
43 SETH HAMMAKER
9TH (3-14-9) 250SX
Seth Hammaker looked strong
until a crash in race two derailed the
Monster Energy/Pro Circuit/Kawasaki
rider. "Today was a rough one," he
said. "We had a decent qualifying
session and a great comeback in the
first race, and then after that I just
made mistakes that didn't need to
happen that put me on the ground.
We definitely have the speed to be up
front, I just have to work on starts and
minimizing mistakes.
