Monster Energy Kawasaki’s Eli Tomac has stolen the points lead from Ken Roczen (Team Honda HRC) at Fox Raceway’s second stop of the 2019 Lucas Oil AMA Pro Motocross Championship.

Monster Energy Yamalube Yamaha Star Racing duo Justin Cooper and Dylan Ferrandis locked out the top three, followed by Chase Sexton (Geico Honda) and Colt Nichols (Monster Energy Yamalube Yamaha Star Racing).

Australian Hunter Lawrence (Geico Honda) was struck with a rare mechanical failure in the opening moto when a rock dislodged his oil cap, however he returned in fine form for race two, challenging for the lead before accepting runner-up honours for ninth overall.

Compatriot Wilson Todd, racing for Red Bull TLD KTM, overcame bike damage in race one to earn 29-14 race scores, crediting him 19th overall. The Pro Motocross championship now heads to Thunder Valley on 2 June.
