Last week Ken Roczen became the fifth winner in six Monster Energy Supercross rounds, which is only the second time in 50 years that has happened, but Eli Tomac is well-positioned to be the sixth. He’s been on the top of the Arlington podium three times previously, in 2022, 2020 and 2018.
Fifth in the points’ standings, Jason Anderson is also looking for his first win of 2024. After scoring his first 450 top-five in the last round in Glendale, Arizona, Hunter Lawrence is also hungry for a win. They will have to beat championship leader Jett Lawrence, however; he’s the only 450 rider with two wins to his credit this season.
LIVE: Coverage from Arlington
In the 250 division, the East riders take center stage once more with Austin Forkner leading the crowd. Haiden Deegan, Cameron McAdoo and Tom Vialle each had terrible starts to their seasons in Detroit and desperately need to rebound in Texas.
