Anderson came out on top by the day with a 1-3 performance, besting Sexton’s 2-2 day by a single point. One point behind Sexton was Eli Tomac with his 4-1 result.

Sexton, who won both Motos at the Fox Raceway 1 season opener at Pala, came close to repeating the feat at Hangtown. Sexton’s hard charge at the end of the first Moto left him less than 0.4 seconds behind winner Anderson. Sexton was nearly as close to the Moto 2 win, arriving at the checkered flag less than 1.3 seconds after Tomac.

Ken Roczen, who went 2-2 in Pala, had a 3-4 day, finishing in P4 overall, ahead of Christian Craig, who went 5-5.

In the battle of the legends, Antonio Cairoli and Ryan Dungey swapped P6 and P7 finishes. Cairoli’s P6 in Moto 2 gave him the edge in the day’s standing, though both riders scored 29 points.

Sexton extends his points lead over Roczen to 12 points, with Anderson six points back of Roczen. Tomac is hot on Anderson’s heels, just on point back, and three points ahead of Craig. Two rounds in, there have been three Moto winners and five different riders on the podium.
