Justin Barcia battles to top 10 finish in technical Seattle AMA Supercross. Is a fringe top 10 result the best we can expect from Barcia in 2024?
A late crash in the Main Event dropped him outside of the top 10 to 13th place as he took the checkered flag, but it’s clear that our Supercross newcomer will be able to build upon that result in the coming weeks as experience builds.
Ryder DiFrancesco: “It was a decent night and I feel like I rode better than what the results obviously show. The track was tough, but it was a good day and I was able to improve with stuff that I worked on during the break. Unfortunately, I went down on the last lap and lost around five positions, but St. Louis should be good and I’m excited to head into the Triple Crown round there.”
