In the 450SX Main Event, JGRMX/Toyota/Yamaha‰Ûªs Justin Brayton scored the Nuclear Cowboyz Holeshot Award with MotoConcepts Racing‰Ûªs Mike Alessi trailing in second place. Brayton crashed in turn three, giving the lead to Alessi as Dungey secured second position.

Two-time defending Monster Energy Supercross Champion Ryan Villopoto was 11th place on the opening lap aboard his Monster Energy Kawasaki. On Lap 1, Rockstar Energy Racing‰Ûªs Davi Millsaps moved into third place as Dungey took over the lead.

Yoshimura Suzuki‰Ûªs James Stewart moved into second place on Lap 6, moving Millsaps back to third place. Millsaps waited until Lap 13 to re-pass Stewart for second place. Stewart was passed again for third by Team Honda Muscle Milk‰Ûªs Justin Barcia.

Dungey, who secured his position in the Main Event via the final transfer position in the Last Chance Qualifier, became the fourth different winner in five races this season and moved into second place in season standings.

Millsaps finished second and holds a 14-point lead over Dungey. Barcia, who did not finish the last two races, finished third.

Roczen extended his points lead to 20 over Tomac with the win. Monster Energy/Pro Circuit/Kawasaki‰Ûªs Martin Davalos finished second and Tomac finished third.

‰ÛÏI need to keep this up and take it to the next level,‰Û
