HUNGRY FOR HOLESHOTS Starts are absolutely killing RCH Suzuki's Ken Roczen. Through the first nine races of the series, this is what his beginning and ending stats look like: Anaheim 1: 17th on lap one, finished fifth. San Diego: sixth on lap one, crashed on lap five while in third, finished sixth. Anaheim 2: ninth on lap one, finished third. Oakland: third on lap one, finished second. Glendale: grabbed the holeshot, won. San Diego 2: fourth on lap one, finished third. Arlington: second on lap one, won. Atlanta: 16th on lap one, finished sixth. Daytona: 10th on lap one, finished fifth. The 39 points that Roczen now trails former teammate Ryan Dungey by are almost entirely due to the difference between his and Dungey's main-event starts. At the end of this championship, it may be that the title was won out of the gate. SUPERCROSS MONSTER ENERGY AMA SUPERCROSS SERIES ROUND 9 / MARCH 5, 2016 DAYTONA BEACH, FLORIDA / DAYTONA INTERNATIONAL SPEEDWAY P56 Ken Roczen saw Dungey gain a few more points on him after getting off to a bad start. He ended up fifth.
