After a tough start to the season, Chase Sexton lit up Anaheim with a gutsy performance that netted him the 450SX Main Event victory, his first win of 2026 and Kawasaki’s first top-step result since 2022. Sexton battled from just outside the holeshot to take control mid-race, overtaking early leader Jason Anderson before holding off the field to the checkered flag. Hunter Lawrence finished second and Eli Tomac, who won the first two rounds of the season maintains the ponts lead with a 3rd place finish.
In the 250SX Western Regional main, Haiden Deegan continued his strong early season form with another win, solidifying his edge in the title battle. Behind him, Michael Mosiman pushed hard to match pace, but Deegan’s speed and composure kept him in front yet again.
