2021 HOUSTON TWO SUPERCROSS | COMPLETE COVERAGE

The 2021 Monster Energy Supercross Series is going to be a wild one. Riders returned to NRG Stadium on Tuesday for the 2021 Houston Two Supercross, the second race of the season, and it proved to be an eventful evening from start to finish. In the 250 East Coast region, Jett Lawrence claimed the first feature of his career, incoming point leader Christian Craig extended his gap on others in the standings, and Austin Forkner saw his chances at the championship take hit after a run-in with another competitor. The 450 Class was just as exciting, as the defending champion Eli Tomac rode his way to the Main Event win after early front-runners Chase Sexton/Adam Cianciarulo/Zach Osborne went down, Dylan Ferrandis scored the first podium of his big bike career, and Justin Brayton became the oldest podium finisher in the history of SX.

Sexton’s crash proved to be an important moment in the night for a lot of riders. Ken Roczen, Jason Anderson, Vince Friese, and Martin Davalos were all docked points for jumping through the rhythm lane that was under the red cross flag warning. The points taken from Roczen allowed Justin Barcia to maintain the top spot in the point standings.
