La SECONDA serata dell’AMA Supercross 2021 si è conclusa, una gara piena di colpi di scena per la 250 con alcune vittorie inaspettate ma attese, tante cadute nella 450 che va in scena lo spettacolo che tutti aspettavano, si iniziano a rivedere diversi nomi importanti, c’è chi sbaglia ancora e chi dopo un assenza ritorna!
Vi ricordiamo che per i video completi del MAIN EVENT bisognerà attendere un po’ di più sia per la 250 e per la 450, ma appena possibile aggiorneremo con la qualità migliore!
Buona visione!
I risultati di Houston 2 non sono ancora confermati con una dichiarazione che recita: “Al momento della stampa i risultati della classe 450SX non erano stati certificati a causa di appelli in sospeso con AMA e FIM per quanto riguarda le infrazioni alle regole di bandiera”.
Si ritiene che i corridori in questione siano Roczen, Anderson e Plessinger per aver saltato con bandiera croce rossa dopo che Sexton si è schiantato.

HOUSTON 2 – Race Report!!!
2021 ROUND 2 RACE DAY RECAP
Defending Champ Eli Tomac Back to Top Step with 450SX Class Victory
Jett Lawrence Dominates Field in First 250SX Class Win
In the first-ever Tuesday night Monster Energy AMA Supercross, an FIM World Championship event, Monster Energy Kawasaki’s Eli Tomac rebounded from a disappointing opening round to seize the round two 450SX Class win in front of a restricted-capacity but screaming audience inside NRG Stadium in Houston, Texas. 450SX Class rookie Monster Energy Star Racing Yamaha’s Dylan Ferrandis landed his first premier class podium in only his second attempt, and Muc-Off Honda’s Justin Brayton stepped onto the podium for this first time in three years at the SuperTuesday event. In the Eastern Regional 250SX Class, 17-year-old Jett Lawrence of Team Honda HRC took his first win going away in only his eighth Supercross start.
The 450SX Class Main Event was dramatic from the drop of the gate when class rookie Team Honda HRC’s Chase Sexton jumped out to an early lead. He was pressured hard and early by Monster Energy Kawasaki’s Adam Cianciarulo but three minutes into the 20-minute plus one lap race Cianciarulo tucked his front end in the sand turn and fell from the top ten. Two laps later Sexton made a similar mistake that dramatically threw him forward on the track and out of the race with an injury.
Defending champion Eli Tomac was in position to capitalize and took over the lead uncontested until the race clock ticked down to the five minute mark; at that point Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing’s Zach Osborne, who grabbed his first Main Event win at the final round of 2020, began to reel in the Kawasaki rider. Tomac remained composed as Osborne trimmed the lead down to about one second, then pulled his Kawasaki back away to take his first win of 2021, an impressive rebound from his disappointing 13th place finish at round one.
Class rookie Dylan Ferrandis earned his first podium the hard way, by hanging it out lap after lap in the technical whoops section and clawing forward from outside the top ten. Despite pressure from Team Honda HRC’s Ken Roczen and 2019 Champ Red Bull KTM’s Cooper Webb, Justin Brayton held on for his first podium finish in three years.
The Eastern Regional 250SX Class win was taken by Team Honda HRC’s Jett Lawrence, who grabbed his first Heat Race win earlier in the event. Lawrence grabbed the Main Event holeshot and steadily pulled a gap on the rest of the field, reaching fourteen seconds before he managed his lead during the final race minutes. His first win moved him up to third in the title points standings.
Near the front early, Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing’s RJ Hampshire and Monster Energy Pro Circuit Kawasaki’s Austin Forkner came together when Forkner made an aggressive pass attempt. Forkner would remount for sixth, while Hampshire ended the night in ninth. The final two podium spots went to Monster Energy Star Racing Yamaha teammates Colt Nichols and opening-round winner Christian Craig.
Houston holds a third round of the 17-round 2021 Monster Energy Supercross series on Saturday, January 23rd. With three first time Heat Race winners and a first time Main Event Winner at round two, the season is off to a dramatic and unpredictable start. Tickets are on sale for early rounds through the Arlington races in a limited capacity, pod-seating format, with tickets for the remaining rounds to go on sale in the coming weeks.
