    ELI TOMAC AND RED BULL KTM FACTORY RACING FINISH P2 AT INDIANAPOLIS TRIPLE CROWN

    Profil anzeigen
    A consistent performance in Round 9 of the 2026 AMA Supercross Championship saw Red Bull KTM Factory Racing’s Eli Tomac finish second overall at tonight's Indianapolis Triple Crown, keeping him firmly in 450SX title contention at the midway point of the season. On the notoriously challenging Indiana track surface, Tomac and his KTM 450 SX-F FACTORY EDITION found comfort early during afternoon qualifying, topping the 450SX timesheets for the fourth time this year with a 45.434s lap-time. Starting outside the top 10 in the opening race of the dynamic Triple Crown format saw the 33-year-old mount an impressive charge through the field, crossing the line in a hard-fought third position as the checkered flag waved. Tomac recorded second-place finishes in Races 2 and 3, which saw the two-time Supercross Champion secure second overall and claim his seventh podium result of the 2026 season, including four race wins. Tomac now sits just four points out of the premier class lead entering the mid-season weekend off, with racing to resume in Birmingham, Alabama, on March 21. Eli Tomac: “It was a good night overall. I made one mistake in Race 3, which allowed Hunter [Lawrence] to pull out a second or two lead, which I just wasn’t able to bring back. I’m glad to get out of here in P2 because this place makes for a really tough night of racing with the Triple Crown format, as well as the soil, so I’m looking forward to the break now.” Red Bull KTM Factory Racing teammate Jorge Prado returned to competition after missing the previous two rounds due to a shoulder injury, with the four-time world champion qualifying a competitive fourth in the 450SX Class at the conclusion of the afternoon sessions. After capturing the holeshot in Race 1, the 25-year-old guided his KTM 450 SX-F FACTORY EDITION at the front of the field during the opening laps, negotiating the technical circuit to take a sixth-place finish. As the track continued to break down, Prado added a pair of P6 scores over the remaining races, securing sixth overall at Round 9 in what marked a successful return. Jorge Prado: "My first round back at Indianapolis was a very solid day – I’m happy with P6 overall with three sixth-place scores across the finals. I was also P4 in practice and had solid starts all night, so I’m obviously not 100 percent yet, but I think that given how I felt this weekend, I really optimized everything. It was important to gain experience in racing a track like this for the future. I’m happy to come out of here with a solid result and then get one weekend off where we will put in a lot of work, and then enter the next round way better.” Also equipped with the KTM 450 SX-F FACTORY EDITION, Aaron Plessinger charged to a measured P8 finish in Race 1, before a collision with another rider in the second outing resulted in an unfortunate DNF. The 30-year-old withdrew from Race 3, however, he has since been cleared of any major injury from the impact and will regroup across the break to come out strong in Birmingham. Aaron Plessinger: “My day was going alright in Indianapolis and I felt we made some steps forward throughout qualifying. I climbed up to eighth in the first race, which was good, given where I started – I felt I rode pretty well. And then in Race 2, I got a pretty good start inside the top-five before Kenny [Roczen] slid on one of the on-offs, then he went double while I tripled, which had me plough directly into his back tire on the next jump. It took me off the bike and now I have a pretty good bruise on my right arm where his tire hit me, but as bad as it was, I think I got pretty lucky to get away from that one with nothing broken. We didn’t do the third race, which was unfortunate, although now having a weekend off, we’ll keep up the work and keep grinding.” Next Race: March 21 – Birmingham, Alabama Results 450SX Class – Indianapolis 1.
