Webb vs. Sexton: A Battle to the Finish
Webb, known for his relentless late-race charges, battled intensely with Ken Roczen and Sexton before making his decisive move.
“I really wanted that one. Me and Kenny [Roczen] were going back and forth. Then Chase got both of us, and yeah, it was time to go! That was one of the gnarliest tracks I’ve ever ridden, and it was an absolute slugfest,”.
Webb said after his hard-fought victory
Sexton, who had briefly taken the lead, acknowledged the challenge of the brutal track conditions.
“It was really tough. I rode my heart out, but Coop got me at the end. I tried to get him back, but I wasn’t able to do it. It’s not over, we’ve got six rounds to go,”.
said Sexton, who remains in championship contention
Red Bull KTM Factory Racing’s Aaron Plessinger rounded out the podium after a strong charge through the pack. Despite an early mistake that stalled his bike, he recovered to claim third place, marking his third podium finish of the season.
Cole Davies Clinches First 250SX Class Victory
The 250SX Class delivered a night of high-intensity racing, with 17-year-old rookie Cole Davies emerging victorious for the first time in his career. The Monster Energy Yamaha Star Racing rider executed a near-perfect ride, leading the pack to the checkered flag and becoming only the second New Zealander to win a 250SX Main Event.
“It’s been a long journey. It’s a lot of work to get here. I feel like this one’s been long overdue,”.

Behind him, Monster Energy Pro Circuit Kawasaki’s Garrett Marchbanks delivered an impressive ride to finish second, while Haiden Deegan of Monster Energy Yamaha Star Racing fought through early adversity to claim third place. Tensions ran high between Deegan and Red Bull KTM Factory Racing’s Julien Beaumer after the race, stemming from an on-track battle and recent social media controversy.
