This year was one of the best Toronto races so far. After last year’s “dry mud” race that had frozen dirt thawing during the evening, the great conditions on Saturday offered up some excellent racing. In the Supercross Class, Ryan Villopoto took another little chunk out of Ryan Dungey’s point lead, and it is now down 17. Perhaps the most exciting part of the evening came when Justin Barcia was able to claim his first ever Lites victory in only four tries. If not for his poor finish at the Atlanta round, Justin would certainly be in the championship hunt right now. Nevertheless, one of the most talked about riders this year is backing up the accolades with results. Now that he has his taste of blood, the competition better watch out.
During practice, Justin Barcia was T-boned by another rider, hitting his right leg in the process. So, following the incident, his trainer did what he could to minimize swelling by doing a very tight compression wrap in Justin's leg. In case you are wondering, it looked pretty painful.
