After weeks worth of bad starts, he finally got that elusive holeshot in Moto 1 to secure a wire-to-wire win, and then let things come to him in Moto 2 with the likes of Jordon Smith having a wild off-track excursion...

Four more total motos are now in the books, and I can tell you with 100% certainty that they happened. Good motos??? That's up to you to decide

As far as Moto 1 goes, there was never a point where I thought he wasn't winning that Moto after the stall, of which he put on himself for being a gear or two too high. There was way too much time left at the point, and he didn't lose much time in the grand scheme to begin with.

Interestingly enough in qualifying, neither points leader, Jett Lawrence nor Haiden Deegan, were able to top the speed charts, seeing teamates of theres in the opposite classes do so instead in the form of Chance Hymas, who's looked great early in Motos so far but not much afterwards, and Justin Cooper, who's historically great at altitude.

There's heat, then there's what was the heat in Northern California. 103-degree heat blistered throughout the Hangtown facility and made things very difficult on these riders. So much so that the AMA shaved five minutes off of both Moto 2s.

Four Motos went down at Fox Raceway on Saturday afternoon; were they particularly good? No, but they happened, and you cannot deny it.

Luckily, we're now only days away from getting a slew of major 450 riders back on the gate. From Eli Tomac, the Lawrence Brothers, Jorge Prado, Jason Anderson, etc, it feels like we're in as good of a place with this class going into the Pala National, as everyone guns to take down defending Champion Chase Sexton of Red Bull KTM. With that in mind, here are some of my thoughts on four of the central title contenders in this rendition of the Great Outdoors.

Even though Deegan will 100 percent go out of his way at some point to tell everyone he's being doubted/no one believes in him (what we call "a lie"), he's the consensus favorite for this title in 2025, and I've seen nothing throughout Supercross that would make me reconsider that.

It's not that things were in doubt coming into this weekend, but after these last two seasons in the Great Outdoors, does this have to...

A year ago at Budds Creek, Haiden Deegan's 250 Title hopes completely unraveled after a red flag restart went awry within seconds.

He's the first American to win the title, dating back to Adam Cianciarulo's 2019 title win over Dylan Ferrandis.

I can't remember the last time you could call a Moto over quicker than Moto 2 yesterday with Sexton.

There is no better word to describe Sexton for the bulk of this Summer than surgical.

Sexton was flawless after some relatively fine starts and, surprisingly, pulled some massive gaps on Hunter Lawrence once he made...

Winning in a big spot is one thing, but turning a seven-second lead on lap 10 to an over 21-second win six laps later is one hell of a...

A chance for the brightest young star in the sport to sweep all three Premier Class Championships in his first full year as a 450 rider ends

Seeing how drastically different this win at Southwick was compared to last year is a massive credit to Jett.

It never really sat right with me that Star Yamaha pulled the cord on Masterpool as quickly as they did.

Neither Hunter Lawrence, nor Honda HRC could've asked for a better start to the season.

This was an all-time instant classic performance, and a career-defining one at that, for one of the sport's best.
