2023 SUPERCROSS POINT STANDINGS (AFTER ROUND 9 OF 17)
Coming into the 2023 Indianapolis Supercross, it was a tight battle at the front of the 450 class. Eli Tomac has retained the red plate, however, Chase Sexton and Cooper Webb have pushed him hard this season. Heading into Daytona last weekend, Webb was only two points behind and Sexton was five points back. After winning his seventh Daytona SX Main Event, Eli Tomac extended the gap to 5 points over Cooper Webb and 10 points over Chase Sexton, heading into the Indy SX, which is Chase Sexton’s hometown race.
In the 250 East class, Hunter Lawrence has been managing his lead with three wins and a third-place finish coming into Indianapolis. Nate Thrasher has been fast, but with Hunter taking him out at the beginning of the 250SX Main Event, and then him having another big crash all by himself last weekend, he came into the Indy SX 29 points behind Hunter.
450 POINT STANDINGS (AFTER ROUND 9 OF 17)
In the 450 main event, Roczen, Webb, Cianciarulo, and Sexton were neck and neck out of the gate. Roczen was able to get into the lead early on the third lap. While Sexton was closing in on Roczen, he caught a footpeg in a rut up to the on/off, giving Roczen some breathing room. Webb was in second, but Barcia was riding well.
On lap 11, Webb and Barcia made contact coming out of the whoops, and Barcia was able to come out ahead with Roczen 3.6 seconds ahead in the lead. By lap 17, Cooper and Barcia were having a good battle for second place, and they were slowly closing the gap on Roczen.
On lap 24, only 1.4 seconds separated Roczen and Barcia as they lapped up to 11th place. In the end, Ken Roczen was able to hold on to the lead and win the 450 main event, with Cooper Webb taking the points lead!

250 POINT STANDINGS (AFTER ROUND 5 OF 10)
Hunter Lawrence took the holeshot and led the pack in the 250 main event, with Chris Blose close behind and a group of Yamahas trailing. Thrasher overtook Blose for third on the opening lap, while Smith quickly followed suit and secured fourth place.
Blose struggled to maintain his position and was shuffled back to eighth by the sixth lap. Jeremy Martin, however, made some impressive moves and surpassed Anstie for fifth, eventually overtaking Deegan for fourth on the fourth lap.
On the 17th lap, Hunter extended his lead to a whopping seven seconds. He encountered a close call with a lapped rider, causing his hand to slip off the handlebars momentarily, but he managed to recover and stay on track. Thrasher held on to second place, with Smith trailing behind in third.
Unfortunately, Deegan’s solid fifth-place ride ended in a fall on the final lap, dropping him to seventh.
In the end, it was Hunter Lawrence who claimed victory, further cementing his championship lead in the 250 East. Keep an eye out for more thrilling races in the next round!
