Up-To-Know: Anaheim2 Supercross!
For the second time this season, the supercross event will take place in the 'Angel Stadium' in Anaheim. This for the third round of the championship. Most eyes will soon be focused on the two titans again; Ken Roczen and Ryan Dungey. Will both dominate the match again like in San Diego or will a third man enter the game? In addition, Malcolm Stewart's return is a nice side story to follow. What can the 2016 East Coast champion in the 450cc class do on a motorcycle that he says he has only been testing this week. In the 250 West Coast class, all eyes are on Shane McElrath. The TLD KTM pilot has already won the first two rounds of the championship and thus puts the competitors in a tight spot. Can Jeremy Martin and associates finally strike back in Anaheim or will the KTM pilot remain supreme?
