Hunter Lawrence Takes Daytona Supercross 250SX East Win

For the third time in the four rounds run thus far, Team Honda HRC’s #hunterlawrence scored the 250SX East victory on Saturday night. This time it was at legendary #daytonainternationalspeedway, and it extended his lead in the title chase to 14 points. Meanwhile, #chasesexton qualified fastest and notched his seventh podium result in eight 450SX rounds, keeping him in title contention.

The 250SX East main-event start saw Lawrence exit turn 1 in third place and quickly put an aggressive pass on Nate Thrasher before taking the lead from Tom Vialle just before the end of lap 1. From there, the Australian powered his CRF250R to the win, finishing with a cushion of nearly 10 seconds on fellow Red Rider #maxanstie, of the Fire Power Honda squad. After completing lap 1 in 17th place, Lawrence’s teammate #chancehymas put on an inspired charge through the pack, eventually finishing an impressive sixth—the best result of his young career.

In the 450SX main event, Sexton exited turn 1 in third place and fought hard throughout the race, holding the position to the finish.
