Honda HRC’s Chase Sexton was the only rider to drop his lap time into the 43-second range during Monster Energy AMA Supercross qualifying at Empower Field in Denver, Co., on Saturday afternoon. Last week’s winner turned a fast lap of 43.968 seconds at the mile-high stadium. Motorsports’ Ken Roczen was second in qualifying, challenging Sexton with a 44.378-second lap time on his No. With Sexton 18 points behind Tomac in the standings, the Colorado native could potentially clinch his third 450SX title in front of his hometown crowd. Points leader Jett Lawrence was fastest in 250SX West qualifying on Saturday, turning a fast lap of 43.893 seconds.
