Stewart Scores 10th Monster Energy Supercross Race Win at Jacksonville Municipal Stadium and Pourcel Caps off Lites Championship with win #5.

Team San Manuel Yamaha’s James Stewart, of Haines City, Fla., won his 10th AMA Supercross class race at the inaugural Monster Energy AMA Supercross, an FIM World Championship, race at Jacksonville Municipal Stadium before 31,653 fans. Stewart’s win narrowed current AMA Supercross class point leader Chad Reed’s points deficit to just five. Just one week after clinching the Eastern Regional AMA Supercross Lites class championship, Monster Energy/Pro Circuit Kawasaki’s Christophe Pourcel, of Corona, Calif., won his fifth main event of the season.

Rockstar/Makita Suzuki’s Mike Alessi, of Victorville, Calif., started the AMA Supercross class main event by winning the holeshot followed closely by his teammate and current points leader Chad Reed, of Tampa, Fla. Reed moved past Alessi in turn two and secured the lead and Stewart snuck into second place.

Stewart tried to set Reed up in a few different sections but the Australian held his ground. Stewart stalked Reed for 13 long laps before he made a pass on the defending champion. Reed answered back and took over the lead on the same lap. Just one lap later, Stewart re-passed Reed and rode to his 10th victory of the season. Reed finished second and GEICO Powersports Honda’s Kevin Windham, of Centerville, Miss.

Chad Reed Speaks…

"I had fun out there tonight," said Reed. "I tried to be smooth and consistent out there. This was a great race, and we have three more left on the season. It’s time for me to get up there and go to battle."

James Stewar Speaks…

"It was a great race, and we actually collided over the triple jump, but that’s racing," said Stewart. "I look forward to the next race in Seattle."

At the final Eastern Regional AMA Supercross Lites class race of the season, Rockstar/Makita Suzuki’s Nico Izzi, of Murrieta, Calif., won the holeshot but was quickly removed from the number-one position by Muscle Milk/MDK KTM’s Wil Hahn, of Decatur, Texas. Pourcel, of Corona, Calif., started in sixth and moved into second place on lap two.

Waiting patiently, Pourcel pressured Hahn and passed him on lap eight for the lead and rode to yet another race win. Hahn earned the best finish of his season with a second place finish followed by Monster Energy Supercross/Pro Circuit Kawasaki’s Austin Stroupe, Lincolnton, N.C.

Chris Pourcel Speaks…

"I had a great race tonight," said Pourcel. "This is a great way to end my championship season. I didn’t get the start I wanted but I was able to work my way to the front of the pack."

The AMA Supercross Lites class race will air on SPEED Sunday, April 5 at 5:00 p.m. EST and the AMA Supercross class will air on SPEED following the Lites class race at 6:00 p.m. EST.

Monster Energy Supercross resumes racing Saturday, April, 18 at Seattle’s Qwest Field.
