It was another stellar
setting as the 50th
Anniversary of the Lucas
Oil Pro Motocross
Championship,
sanctioned by AMA Pro
Racing, reached its
halfway point with the
sixth round of the
season in the legendary
sands of The Wick 338.
The MB Tractor &
Equipment Southwick
National was destined to
be one of the summer's
biggest tests and it
lived up to expectation
with a grueling
afternoon of motos.

The recent hot streak by
Monster Energy Star
Yamaha Racing's Eli
Tomac continued with
what was arguably the
multi-time champion's
most impressive
performance to date in
the 2022 season. Tomac
was forced to come from
behind in each 450 Class
moto and showed his
prowess in the sand with
a dominant 1-1 effort
that saw his moto win
streak extend to five en
route to a third
consecutive overall
victory that cemented
his status as the
hottest rider in
American motocross.

One week after he lost
his hold of the 250
Class point lead through
heartbreak, Team Honda
HRC's Jett Lawrence
reclaimed control of the
championship and
reassumed his position
at the head of the pack
with an emphatic 1-1
effort. Lawrence was in
a class of his own all
afternoon and easily
secured his fifth win in
six rounds to once again
grab control of the red
plate.
