250 RACE RESULTS // 2023 TAMPA SUPERCROSS

We’ve traveled from to Houston to Tampa and we’re eager to see the East Coast 250 division battle it out once again. There’s plenty of riders who have what it takes to keep the top 10 interesting and after seeing Hunter Lawrence dominate qualifying with the red plate in hand, we have a feeling that the Honda rider will be the top force tonight. With that being said, riders like Jordon Smith, Max Anstie, Nate Thrasher, Michael Mosiman, Chance Hymas, and Haiden Deegan aren’t going to make it easier for the Australian. So who do you think will win? Will Hunter Lawrence extend his points lead even further? Find out down below as we report all the action LIVE!
