MONSTER ENERGY AMA SUPERCROSS SERIES VOL. 51 ISSUE 8 FEBRUARY 25, 2014 P57 said Bogle. "I'm just following the plan with my trainer and so far, so good. I'm happy but not satisfied. I'm hungry for more and ready to move over on the podium to- wards that middle spot. "I didn't have the best start in the main, so I had to fight through and make some passes to get up front," he said of the race. "Basi- cally, I capitalized on some mis- takes other guys were making and made it through the carnage. I raced a pretty smart race." BAGGETT'S BAD START Blake Baggett salvaged what could've been a disastrous night for the Monster Energy/Pro Cir- cuit/Kawasaki Team rider. He clipped handlebars with the rider next to him down the start chute and nearly went down, but the damage was done. He en- tered the first turn in dead last but, knowing he could possibly make some passes in bunches through the first turn, he dove to the inside and came out just out- side the top 10. From there, he clawed and scratched his way up, eventually crossing the finish line in fifth place, definitely keep- ing himself in contention for the East Championship. He did, however, slip from sec- ond to third in the points stand- ings but the former 250 outdoor champ is still only nine points out of the lead behind the rookie Cianciarulo. CN 450 MAIN 1.

Cole Thomson (KTM) 9. Matt Lemoine (Kaw) 10. Michael Oldenburg (Hon) Both Roczen (94) and Villopoto (1) made mistakes that cost them positions, but Villopoto's cost him a seemingly sure win. Roczen couldn't wait to spread the news of his second win.
