Before the champagne dries from the first one, you're ready to chase the next one. Ken Roczen and Cooper Webb did just that Saturday night at the third round of the Monster Energy AMA Supercross season, becoming the first men in 2015 to get that other win. Albeit, both of them went about it in a slightly different fashion. For RCH Racing Suzuki's Roczen it was an encore of his dominant performance at Ana- heim I. The young German got out to the lead early and checked out to take his second win of the season and help advance his points lead over rival Eli Tomac on the GEICO Honda. On the other hand, Yammalube/Star Rac- ing/Yamaha's Webb overcame a bad start and charged to the front from 12th to pull off the ulti- mate last-minute upset over training partner Ty- ler Bowers on the Monster Energy/Pro Circuit Kawasaki. Making the victory a little sweeter, Webb leaves Anaheim with the red plate. CHECKING OUT The old adage: to finish first, first you must finish held true at A2.
