450 QUALIFYING RESULTS // 2024 LAS VEGAS SMX PLAYOFF #3

Qualifying for the final 450 race of the year from Las Vegas. Hunter Lawrence currently leads in points over Chase Sexton by one and his brother Jett by nine making this race a winner-take-all event. Eli Tomac and Aaron Plessinger are not out of it yet either as this round is triple points and if the lead group does not have a great race, those riders could make a comeback. Jett Lawrence looked extremely smooth in free practice and will be tough to beat, but it all starts with qualifying.
