AMA Supercross - Points and Podium for KTM Factory Racing Team With Musquin and Martin Claiming Second Overalls at Glen Helen MX National

SAN BERNARDINO, Calif. – Round 2 of the 2018 AMA Pro Motocross Championship took place on Saturday at the always-challenging Glen Helen Raceway and KTM’s Factory #racing teams emerged with a pair of second-place finishes at the Glen Helen National. Red Bull KTM Factory Racing’s #marvinmusquin sustained his positive start to the season with second-overall in the 450MX class, while Troy Lee Designs/Red Bull/KTM’s Alex Martin rode his way to a double-podium finish to earn second-overall on the day.

 

In 450MX #moto 1, Musquin got off to a top-ten start where he navigated his way through the chaos to settle into seventh on the opening lap. He put on an early charge to take over fourth by lap two, where he made his move into third by the halfway point. Musquin charged after the lead duo and eventually caught the second-place rider on lap 12 and once he overtook the second-place position, he never looked back.

 

“All the top guys were ahead of me off the start and it was really hard to pass,”Musquin said. “I settled a little bit behind Jason, then I got him and I fight hard to come back to Ken and Eli was gone by then, he was fast. It was a hard fight and it was pretty good considering the passes I had to make.”
