Chase Sexton announces retirement at 30 after 450 moto wins….
Chase Sexton shines at AMA Pro 450MX at Spring Creek with double win
Chase Sexton is on top form and he took another double win in AMA Pro Motocross, this time at Spring Creek. In both motos he had to go from the back to the front, but once he was in the lead no one could beat
In the first moto, the holeshot belonged to Hunter Lawrence, with Aaron Plessinger and Chase Sexton as his closest challengers. It didn’t take long for Plessinger and Lawrence to start battling for the lead, and Sexton joined them later: first he beat Plessinger, and gradually he was closing in on Lawrence, with the latter responding later and making up a bit of the gap to #4.
With nine minutes to go, Sexton was able to confirm the overtake, and despite Lawrence’s initial response, the KTM rider was able to get the upper hand and pull ahead, thus finishing in first place with a lead of more than 10s over Lawrence, second, and Plessinger third.
For the second moto the scenario was different at the start. Justin Cooper took the holeshot, Lawrence was second and Jason Anderson third, with Sexton this time in sixth.
