2013 AMA Supercross Season Finale Results

Spoiler Alert: 2013 Monster Energy AMA Supercross results from Sam Boyd Stadium in Las Vegas listed below

Last weekend at the penultimate round of the Monster Energy AMA Supercross series in Salt Lake City, Ryan Villopoto clinched his third straight title.

The Monster Energy Kawasaki KX450F rider took the win, which tied his career best of nine in a season. But the Washington native was hungry for one more. And due to this, he didn’t relax at Saturday night’s SX finale at Sam Boyd Stadium in Las Vegas.

Villopoto went on to win the round, his tenth this season. This is now his personal best for a single season. Joining Villopoto on the podium was Red Bull KTM’s Ryan Dungey and Rockstar Energy Suzuki’s Davi Millsaps.

Before nearly 40,000 fans, Monster Energy Kawasaki’s Jake Weimer took the Nuclear Cowboyz Holeshot. As for Villopoto, he began mid-pack after a bad start.

But by the end of the first lap, Villopoto was in the lead. He led all 20 laps en route to the win.

Ryan Villopoto (Monster Energy Kawasaki KX-F 450 Supercross) says; “This is a great way to cap the season off. We rebounded this year from a bad start at the season opener and won the title. There is no better way to end a season than like this.”

As for Dungey, he arrived in Vegas with three points behind his rival all season, Millsaps. The KTM SX-F 450 rider quickly moved into second on the fifth lap.

But all Millsaps needed was third to beat Dungey in the point’s race for second, and this is just what he did. Millsaps finished third behind Dungey, but finished the championship in second place.

Weimer finished in fourth, followed by Muscle Milk Honda’s Justin Barcia.

Red Bull KTM’s Ken Roczen captured the first Western Regional 250SX Championship of his career as GEICO Honda’s Eli Tomac won his fifth Main Event of the season in the Eastern Regional Championship. Roczen also went on to win the Dave Coombs Sr. East/West Shootout.

In the Eastern Regional 250SX Class Main Event, Gavin Faith won the Nuclear Cowboyz Holeshot Award, leading Hahn through turn one. After the opening lap, Bowers moved into second place before taking over the lead on lap two, Feld Motor Sports says.

Hahn secured the number-two position on Lap 5, and on the same lap, Red Bull KTM’s Marvin Musquin, who came into tonight’s race five points behind Hahn in the championship standings, moved into third place, Feld Motor Sports says.

Musquin managed to pass Hahn for second and staged a late-race charge on Bowers, crossing the finish line just inches apart.

Wil Hahn (GEICO Honda CRF250R Supercross) says: “Right now, I do not know what to say. Marvin [Musquin] has been making a string comeback on me, and coming into this race, I may not have been in the most ideal situation, but I am glad I pulled it off.”

“This was an amazing race for me,I had a great AMSOIL Arenacross season and come into supercross ready to put in some good races. This is the perfect way to close out the season.”

GEICO Honda’s Zach Osborne led the field through turn one of the Eastern Regional 250SX Class race, winning the Nuclear Cowboyz Holeshot Award with Rockstar Energy Racing’s Ryan Sipes and Davalos in tow. Davalos quickly worked his way into the lead on the opening lap. Coming into tonight’s race, Roczen led GEICO Honda’s Eli Tomac by five points in season point standings. Roczen worked his way into third place on the opening lap after starting in fifth place, Feld Motor Sports says.

On lap 4, Roczen advanced to second place as Davalos controlled the lead. Tomac made the best of his sixth place start and began working his way through the field, passing Roczen on Lap 9 and Davalos for the lead on Lap 11, Feld Motor Sports says.

Roczen successfully passed Davalos on the 14th lap, which secured the brand’s first-ever 250SX Class Championship, Feld Motor Sports says.

Ken Roczen (Red Bull KTM SX-F 450 Supercross) says: “I am so happy right now. This was a close race tonight and the championship was intense. I really hope that the fans enjoyed tonight’s race. I was riding with a lot of weight [on my shoulders], but I am so excited right now.”

Eli Tomac (GEICO Honda CRF250R Supercross) says: “It was a year of ups and downs. This is going to make me better as I make the transition to the 450SX Class next year.”

Newly crowned champion Roczen opened the Dave Coombs Sr. East/West Shootout with the Nuclear Cowboyz Holeshot Award followed by his teammate Musquin. At the end of the opening lap, Musquin moved into the lead, and on the following lap, the two traded places several times before Roczen made a pass and rode to the first shootout win of his career, Feld Motor Sports says.

MyPlash Yamaha’s Kyle Cunningham passed Musquin for second place on Lap 5 and rode to the best finish of his career.

Ken Roczen says: “This race was really important to me because this is my last 250SX race in supercross because I am moving up next year. This is my first shootout win and it feels great.”
