And just like that, the 2024 Monster Energy Supercross Championship has reached its last stop of the season, as round seventeen is officially underway in Salt Lake City. This morning’s timed qualifying sessions just wrapped up on the hard-packed, technical course inside Rice Eccles Stadium. Just hundredths of a second split the front-runners in both the 250SX East, 250SX West, and 450SX classes. Here’s a look at the fastest qualifiers and some information on how their qualifying sessions went in Utah!

250SX East

Haiden Deegan was the man to beat in 250SX East timed qualifying, as he topped the overall charts with his lap time from the opening session of riding. The Monster Energy/Star Racing/Yamaha rider logged a 53.255, which was just a hundredth faster than the next best lap time. 

Seth Hammaker improved on his lap time in the final session of timed-qualifying, as he laid down a 53.444 with just a few laps to go. With that lap time, the Monster Energy/Pro Circuit/Kawasaki rider advanced into second place on the time sheets. 

Chance Hymas was looking comfortable in Salt Lake City and even sat on top of the leaderboards at a few points. The Honda HRC rider laid down a 53.852 and ultimately landed in third place on the time sheets.

250SX West

Rj Hampshire held the upper-hand over championship competitor Levi Kitchen in timed-qualifying, as he logged the best lap in the class. The Rockstar Energy Husqvarna rider’s 53.169 came from the final session of qualifying.

Jordon Smith was just behind on the lap charts and laid down a 53.349 as his fast lap. The Monster Energy/Star Racing/Yamaha rider was looking quite comfortable on the dry and slick course. 

Julien Beaumer was right at home on the dry course in Salt Lake City, as the rookie out of Lake Havasu City logged the third best lap time in the 250SX West. The RedBull KTM rider laid down a 53.397 in the final session of timed-qualifying.

450SX

Finally, for the first time this year, Chase Sexton topped the charts in timed-qualifying. The RedBull KTM Factory Racing rider laid down the fastest lap time in both sessions of practice. His fastest time, a 52.139, was logged in the opening session of qualifying.

Jett Lawrence trailed just behind with his lap time from the first session of timed-qualifying. The likely soon to be crowned 2024 450SX Champion logged a 52.184 in the first session to secure second place on the time sheets.

Justin Cooper continued to quietly be a sleeper in the 2024 Monster Energy Supercross season, as he logged the third best lap time in Salt Lake City. The Monster Energy/Star Racing/Yamaha rider laid down a 52.595 in the opening session of qualifying.
