47 LEVI KITCHEN
4TH (7-4) 250SMX
Levi Kitchen showed speed in the
early stages of race two but finished
off the box overall. "During the first
moto, I got buried on the start and had
to fight my way through. The entire
track was challenging with the heat,
but I tried to stay consistent. Moto two
was definitely better for me. I got a
good jump and tried to hang up front
but I kept making minor mistakes and
lost time. We are sitting third in points
heading into Las Vegas and I am
ready to leave it all on the table."
929 JULIEN BEAUMER
5TH (5-6) 250SMX
Julien Beaumer didn't podium like
last week, but still finished inside the
top five. "It was a tough day for me.
I never really had the feeling I was
looking for on this track, but P5 was
a good result. We got a little bit better
in that second moto, so not my best
day, but fifth on a weekend that I
didn't feel too good."
MYOWNRACE
Hunter Lawrence led Eli Tomac to win an exciting first moto. This set him
