“Our battle was intense throughout both motos,” said Lawrence. “It was fun pushing each other hard.”
Sexton, having made significant bike adjustments earlier in the week, expressed satisfaction with his performance. “I feel like I’m a little ahead of schedule,” he remarked. “After a challenging second moto last week, I knew changes were needed.

As Sexton gears up for the playoffs, the competition intensifies, particularly with defending champion Jett Lawrence aiming to secure a third consecutive title. The stage is set for a thrilling showdown in the upcoming events.
