Ken Roczen Doubles Down in Indy

Ken Roczen has won two races in a row this season. Roczen’s back to back win continues to help him extend his season points lead.  Round 4 was held Tuesday night at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indiana.

Justin Barcia had the holeshot at once the gate dropped, but Roczen snagged an early lead and stayed there. Barcia ran in second. On Barcia’s heels was Eli Tomac running in third. That’s exactly how the three podium spots would shake out at the end of the night.

Things weren’t so quiet over in the Eastern Regional 250 class. Michael Mosiman had the holeshot. Colt Nichols got around Mosiman after a lapped rider went down. Nichols took the win, but everyone was confused as to why the checkered flag flew one lap too early. There still has yet to be an explanation for the early checkered.

There is one more race scheduled at Lucas Oil Stadium this weekend. The track crew is busy setting up a whole new track for the riders.
