Monday Kickstart: Freestone National MX 2012

Yoshimura Suzuki’s James Stewart came into Texas with the red plate and points lead. After sweeping both motos again, he padded his points lead and will head to the third round in Colorado with the red plates again.

Both motos of the 450 class we very exciting, as Stewart and Red Bull KTM’s Ryan Dungey were never further than this from each other. When Dungey would close up on Stewart, James would manage to find a little more speed and open up a slight gap. Like mentioned, though, Stewart went on to take both moto victories.

Here’s another shot of the battle between Stewart and James. Both riders were in a class of their own and pulled a huge gap on the rest of the field as they engaged in their battle.

Not only did Stewart and Dungey battle close together, but they also looked similar. We couldn’t help but notice how close the Answer gear worn by Stewart looked to the Fox gear that Dungey wore.

We got a little champagne on the camera, but got the shot.
