High Point 2024

Another Jett Lawrence 1-1, the 13th of his 450MX career. Lawrence weathered the storm from Chase Sexton and older brother Hunter Lawrence to win both motos at High Point for the second consecutive year. Hunter held the lead early in the first moto, but Jett made a pass on the fourth lap and managed the gap to the end.

Jason Anderson led the first few laps of moto two, the 6th different rider to lead laps in 2024 (only 5 riders led laps in 2023) before J. Lawrence and Sexton passed and dropped him. Sexton and Lawrence battled until Sexton went down on lap 12, costing himself a chance at spoiling Lawrence’s day.

2-3 finishes for Hunter Lawrence keeps his perfect podium streak alive but the tie with Sexton (3-2) means his points lead is still +6. J. Lawrence is third in points (-8).

After weeks of close calls and heartbreaks, the Monster Energy Pro Circuit Kawasaki team finally secured their 300th win with a rider who had never even finished inside the top five overall. Fill-in rider Ty Masterpool went 2-1, to become the 41st different PC/Kawasaki rider to win for the team. Haiden Deegan hosted a passing clinic on his way to second overall with 1-2 moto scores.

Moto 1: Chance Hymas led early, Masterpool led the middle part of the moto but Deegan absorbed most of the attention. He started in 14th and marched all the way into the lead with two laps to go. It was his sixth moto win of the year.

Moto 2: Coty Schock took the holeshot and Deegan ended the first lap in 18th. Mark Fineis, Tom Vialle, Masterpool and Hymas all held the lead at different stages. Masterpool and Hymas looked set to battle for the win, but Deegan put on a legendary charge. Ten seconds down, Deegan’s last two laps were the fastest of the entire moto. He finished 0.387 behind Masterpool. An emotional Mitch Payton dedicated the victory to his late father.
