RJ Hampshire was the fastest on the track at the start of the AMA Supercross 250, West zone. The Rockstar Energy Husqvarna rider didn’t even cross the first lap in the lead, but that made little difference as he showed a superior pace to the others, from that moment on and until the end, at Angel Stadium.
In the main event of the night, the holeshot belonged to Julien Beaumer but the Red Bull KTM rider, with this, remained in the lead of the race during the first complete lap. He would later be overtaken by RJ Hampshire, with #24 beating the opponent in the following laps: from the second to the eighth, Beaumer was always behind Hampshire, with Levi Kitchen in third in all of them.
Jordon Smith was the next to reach second place, during one lap, with TJ Albright and Talon Hawkins also on the podium positions, and always with Hampshire as the leader.
In the last three laps of the main event, Hampshire maintained the lead but the following positions had some changes: Joshua Varize even ran in second, ahead of Smith, with Robbie Wageman also performing well but unable to hold onto the podium until the end.
Thus, Hampshire had an almost perfect start, winning by 3.138s over Smith, while Kitchen still managed to reach the third position.
