INDIANAPOLIS – Richie Escalante became the first Mexican to win an AMA National Road Racing Championship when he wrapped up the MotoAmerica Supersport title on Sunday at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. I’m very happy to race with these guys and every race try to push and give you my best. One more race (weekend) in Laguna, so keep working to try to finish the season on the top.”. With his 13th race win of the season, Escalante clinched the Supersport championship in Sunday’s race two in style. After winning Saturday’s Twins Cup race, clinching the class championship, and winning Liqui Moly Junior Cup race one, Landers completed another perfect weekend on Sunday when he also won Liqui Moly Junior Cup race two. I was struggling with the edge grip and driving grip the whole race.
