The Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Championship headed to Budd’s Creek in Southern Maryland, about a stone’s throw from Washington D.C. This was the ninth round for the series.
The battle continues in the 450 class. In the first lap, Ken Roczen was out front capitalizing on his momentum from last weekend at Unadilla. Dylan Ferrandis made a late-race attack on Roczen. Roczen held on for the win. Roczen grabbed the holeshot in the second moto. Ferrandis was back on Roczen’s rear tire, this time successfully taking over the lead. Ferrandis grabbed the win and overall for the weekend.
In the 250 class, when the gate dropped in the first moto, Justin Cooper was out front with the holeshot. Jett Lawrence quickly moved through the field but wasn’t able to do any better than second. Cooper won the moto. In the second moto, Jeremy Martin had the holeshot and never looked back. Cooper’s fourth place finish in the second moto would earn Martin the overall for Budds Creek.
Dylan Ferrandis continues to lead Roczen in the points standings. It is still an extremely tight battle between Justin Cooper and Jett Lawrence. Three points separate two competitors.
