Supercross Arlington 2 commenti dei piloti
Cooper Webb: “It’s not often that we’re all three up there. Getting the holeshot was key to that. Even though we were all there, the holeshot was super important tonight. But yeah to race and get the win tonight was incredible and rewarding, even for the fans, too. To be able to race up there and get the win was super exciting. I know he (Tomac) was doing some different things at the beginning with the triple onto the table, and I was trying different things, jumping and then skimming whoops. There were a few things I could hear behind me where he was catching me, and I felt like he was getting a pretty good run on me in the whoops… It’s tough in that situation. The track’s changing every lap and you have someone on you, and you don’t know how close they are. You don’t know if you can start to open it up or if they’re going to be able to get by you.”
Eli Tomac: “It’s been a few races where I feel like that championship weight has been lifted off me. It’s nothing you want, right? I was just glad to have a better race in a stadium environment. Outside of Daytona. It was a good start, better riding throughout the whole main. It was a good push, just not enough in the end. I said what I wanted to say. Now fingers get pointed with how my races have been. I knew that before going into that, that fingers would get pointed. Obviously, this is in the past and I haven’t been on the podium lately. I’ve been trying different bike setups lately and they haven’t worked out, so I went back to old faithful today.”
Ken Roczen “Obviously, he’s on it right now. Realistically, the only bad race I had was last weekend and points can turn around quickly. We’ve still got six rounds to go, and I just want to focus on myself… In the end is when it counts and I’m keeping the dream alive and of course he’s winning a lot right now but I just want to go out there and do what I love and keep it close so we can take it all the way to the end.”

Hunter Lawrence: “I think I was in fifth around the first turn and just tried to push and shove my way to the front the best I can,. I was just sitting in there trying to make passes when I could, and I saw an opportunity to make a two in one pass and I went for it before the finish line. I just kept telling myself one more lap, one more lap, and then white flag, I pretended like there were two more laps. And then when I went over the finish line, everything flashed through my head like everything I went through.”
Jalek Swoll: “The first thing that comes to mind is just believing in yourself. I had a pretty rough rookie year so I had a bunch of people that didn’t think I could do it and that was in the back of my mind every day. Seeing the progress I was making at Baker’s Factory, I knew it was a matter of time. My team believed in me and that was just that patience I needed. I think I can put myself in really good positions and can battle for the top three steps a lot more frequently than you were seeing in the first few rounds.”
Kyle Peters: “Arenacross is something that is a lot of fun and I’ve been very grateful to be part of that. Honestly, this is the end goal. To be a contender in supercross. It took me a lot of years to figure out this supercross between injuries and not believing in myself. I truly believe in myself. I’ve been working with a mental coach now and that’s one of the biggest things. We’ve put in the work and the time and the team has given me a good bike to go out there and do that.”
