This Week in Supercross: 2016 East Rutherford SX

450SX Class

• Ready to Wrap It Up: Ryan Dungey needs to finish 14th or better at MetLife Stadium in order to clinch the 2016 title. He has just two finishes outside the top 10 in his career, both DNF’s, with the last one coming 44 races ago.
• Equaling The GOAT: With his 87th-career podium finish Dungey tied The GOAT Ricky Carmichael for third all time. It was the same day he equaled Carmichael’s total career starts at 115. They share an all-time best podium percentage of 75.66%.
• Setting a Standard: Ken Roczen’s fourth victory doubled his previous career-best win total in a season. He’s now tied for 20th all time with eight career wins.
• Back on the Box: Eli Tomac earned his first podium finish since winning at Daytona six races ago. Last year’s championship runner-up has just three podium results this season.
• Held at Bay: After leading 96% of the laps in the four races leading into Foxborough, Dungey did not lead a single lap last weekend. He has still led 51% of the total laps this season.
• Convincing Efforts: In each of his four wins this season Roczen has led at least 19 laps. He’s led all 20 laps in two of those wins, including last weekend. All but one of his total laps led in 2016 have come in winning efforts.
• Heat Streak: Roczen has won his Heat Race for four consecutive races. As a result, he has the most Heat Race transfers into the Main Event this season.
