THE CHAMP STAYS ON TOP

Clinching the championship a round early wasn’t enough for 3-time reigning champ Eli Tomac, as he came out at the Ironman national going 3-1 for the day’s overall. Ken Roczen led a lot of laps at the final round of the series, but ultimate succumbed to the pressures of Eli Tomac and Zach Osborne, still landing on the second step of the podium, though. Osborne bounced back from a fifth in moto one to a second in moto two to round out the overall podium. Here’s how the rest of the 450 class riders ended their seasons at the national in Crawfordsville, Indiana: (for extended coverage of the 2019 Ironman National MX, click here.)

450 Moto One

Joey Savatgy put his Monster Energy/Kawasaki out front early in the first 450 class moto here at Ironman Raceway in Crawfordsville, Indiana, but was quickly overtaken by Ken Roczen. Marvin Musquin and Eli Tomac made their ways by into second and third, and began an all out three-way battle for the lead, all swapping positions for the rest of the race. Roczen would bring home the moto win, almost losing it, though, to a move by Marvin Musquin in the final corner. Musquin finished second and Tomac rounded out the podium in third.

450 Moto Two

Once again, Joey Savatgy put his KX450 out front early, grabbing the holeshot and leading the pack through the first few turns. Ken Roczen also slipped his way into the lead again, but carried with him Eli Tomac and later in the moto Zach Osborne as well. The three battled for awhile, but Eli and Zach both were able to make the pass on Roczen by the end of the moto. Unfortunately, a crash off the start left Marvin Musquin with a DNF and was unable to battle for a podium position.
