Cleveland Supercross result

Ken Roczen left Cleveland with the win on April 18 and cut Hunter Lawrence’s 450SX title lead to a single point. (supercrosslive.com) Cleveland was Round 14 of 17 in the Monster Energy AMA Supercross season, and the 450 class used the Triple Crown format, where three short main events decide the overall instead of one long final. Roczen went 2-2-1 at Huntington Bank Field, while Cooper Webb finished second overall at 5-4-2 and Justin Cooper took third at 3-1-7. (racerxonline.com 1) (racerxonline.com 2) Lawrence opened the night with a wire-to-wire win in the first 450 race, but his overall result fell to sixth after a 5th in Race 2 and 14th in Race 3. Supercross Live said Roczen’s consistency across all three races delivered his fourth win of the season. (supercrosslive.com) (racerxonline.com) The biggest swing came before the gate dropped for the Triple Crown mains. Eli Tomac crashed in qualifying, suffered a hip injury, and did not line up for the afternoon program, leaving Cleveland with zero points from the round. (nbcsports.com) (ultimatemotorcycling.com) That reshaped the 450 standings with three rounds left. Lawrence leads on 286 points, Roczen is second on 285, Webb is third on 264, and Tomac dropped to fourth on 255 after Cleveland. (supercrosslive.com) (results.supermotocross.com) The weather added to the chaos. Supercross Live said Cleveland was the series’ first stop there since 1995, and riders dealt with rain showers, cold temperatures, swirling winds, and a track that changed through the day. (supercrosslive.com) The 250SX East class had its own Triple Crown shuffle. Nate Thrasher won the overall with 2-1-4 finishes, rookie Landen Gordon took second in just his second professional start at 4-2-2, and Cole Davies salvaged third overall at 5-4-1 after winning the final race. (nbcsports.com) (racerxonline.com) Davies still tightened his grip on the East championship. The official series points show him on 181 after Cleveland, 21 ahead of Seth Hammaker at 160, with Daxton Bennick third on 138 and Thrasher up to fifth on 116. (results.supermotocross.com) The next round is Philadelphia on April 25, with Denver on May 2 and Salt Lake City on May 9 after that. Roczen now heads there one point back, Lawrence still holds the red plate, and Tomac’s Cleveland injury has turned the final three Saturdays into a different championship race.
