12th Rd. #supercross 2016 – #santaclara, CA (USA)

Ryan Dungey qualified third overall in the morning’s combined qualifying sessions, while his teammate, Marvin Musquin, experienced a hard crash during the final session. As a result of his crash, Musquin was forced to miss the final minutes of the session, where he ultimately qualified in 13th position.

Both Dungey and Musquin lined up in 450SX Heat 2 and the Red Bull KTM duo shot off the line to capture 1-2 positions in the holeshot. Dungey assumed the early lead, with Musquin and James Stewart close in tow. Dungey held on for all six laps to capture the heat race win, followed by James Stewart in 2nd and Musquin in 3rd.

Main Event
In the 450SX Main #event, both Dungey and Musquin got off to a great start as they entered the opening lap inside the top three on their KTM 450 SX-F FACTORY EDITION's. Dungey quickly made his way around Jason Anderson to take over the lead position while Ken Roczen settled in close behind. From there, it was an all-out battle for the lead between Dungey and Roczen, as both riders pushed the limit for the full 20-lap Main #event.

In the end, Dungey prevailed to capture his 28th career victory in the 450SX Class, while gaining valuable points in the championship chase. Dungey now holds a 42-point lead over Roczen with five rounds remaining in the season.

“It feels great to be back in the center of the podium,” Dungey stated. “I got a good start and just tried to put the hammer down. Kenny (Roczen) was right there the whole night but we just tried to ride mistake-free and it went well.”

Musquin ultimately finished 17th in the Main #event, following a crash during the day’s final qualifying session. Musquin now sits in 5th place in the 450SX Championship standings.
