What a start for Jett Lawrence at the first round of the AMA Supercross 450! The Team Honda HRC rider dominated the main event in Anaheim from start to finish, showing right away that he is a serious contender for the championship.
The first holeshot of the year in the main event belonged to Jett Lawrence. He was soon overtaken by Cooper Webb, with Jason Anderson in third, but it wasn’t long before Lawrence was back in first position.
And the «film» of the first round is easy to explain, with some monotony during the first 11 laps as far as the race leaders were concerned, with Lawrence always leading ahead of Anderson and Webb.
On lap 12 Dean Wilson moved into second position, but everything was back to the previous formula over the next two laps.
Until the end, Derek Derek, Justin Hill, Jorge Prado and Malcolm Stewart were also in second place, but no one could shadow Lawrence, who confirmed his victory with 7.188s over Anderson at the end, with defending champion Chase Sexton in third.
