2020 OAKLAND SUPERCROSS TRACK PREVIEW

AMA Supercross will be in the Bay Area this week for round five of the 2020 season. The Oakland Coliseum has hosted Supercross 15 times in the past. In the modern era, it has been there since 2011, with the most recent win going to Cooper Webb last year. Old timers will never forget the first Supercross held there back in  1979, when Jimmy Weinert won using a paddle tire on his works Kawasaki.

For 2020, the track will be more conventional than the sand track of 1979. It will host only one whoop section, which isn’t expected to play a major role as it did in round three at Anaheim. Ken Roczen proved he’s the man to beat last weekend with a sweep of the triple crown format in Glendale. His lead is by no means secure, as Eli Tomac has shaken off his traditional early season blues already and is only 8 points back. Adam Cianciarulo and Cooper Webb have yet to win, and almost everyone agrees that they will before the season is over.

The 250 West class is anyone’s guess at this point. Justin Cooper still leads despite critical crashes in Glendale. Defending champion Dylan Ferrandis is only 3 points back, with Brandon Hartranft and Austin Forkner close behind, It’s still anyone’s title.
