ROUND 2 / SEPTEMBER 19, 2026 DIGNITY HEALTH SPORTS PARK / CARSON, CALIFORNIA SUPERMOTOCROSS I MONSTER ENERGY AMA SUPERMOTOCROSS WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP P76 3 ELI TOMAC 9TH (6-9) 450SMX Eli Tomac put in a good effort during moto one and came away with a top 10 overall. "I got a decent start in moto one and I was somewhat in the mix before I lost two positions, but the riding was a lot better than the week- end before," he said. "In moto two, I was in a worse position off the start, and just didn't get a flow going. I was kind of happy with moto one because it was an improvement, although I want to get a stronger result at my final race next weekend in Missouri." 24 RJ HAMPSHIRE 6TH (9-6) 450SMX RJ Hampshire swapped scores with Eli Tomac and just barely missed a top five overall. "I felt pretty good on the bike all day," Hampshire said. "I had good speed and in moto one I got off to a solid start but made a mistake and lost the front. We picked it up, and after that I felt the best I have on a 450 inside a stadium, and I salvaged what I could. Moto two was nothing too special, we just got a decent start and put our laps in to finish sixth overall." MYOWNRACE Prado and Ken Roczen were this close in the opening moto. A pair of seconds earned Prado the overall win and keeps him in control of the points lead. Hunter Lawrence dominated the second moto, which bumped him to second on the night.
