With a massive crowd on-hand for America's Independence Day weekend, Justin Barcia and the Troy Lee Designs/Red Bull/GASGAS Factory Racing Team celebrated their first 450MX podium of the season with third overall at the one and only RedBud National! For Barcia, stoke levels were at an all-time high during Moto 2 as he grabbed a serious holeshot and raced his MC 450F to a season-best result of third, smoothing out his 8-3 scores for an overall podium at Round 5.
- Barcia gets it done with third overall at RedBud!
- Mosiman delivers a persistent ride for eighth overall
- Brown sidelined in Moto 2 after a digger in first moto
When it comes to fun, nobody does it like the folks at RedBud MX! Despite a challenging practice and qualifying session, Barcia was all smiles as he lined up for the first moto of the day. He got off to a great start in Moto 1, battling just outside the podium for the first few laps.
Justin Barcia: "It was quite a wild day but a great day to be on the podium, it's been a while and much-needed. Second moto, I got a great holeshot and battled with the boys, ending up P3 for third overall. It was a wild – but awesome – day!"
The 2022 AMA Pro Motocross Championship is back in full swing with Round 6 taking place next Saturday, July 9 in Southwick, Massachusetts.
