NHRA’s 2017 schedule gets released

0 Comments

The 2017 NHRA Mello Yello Drag Racing Series schedule has been released without too many major changes.

Houston and Charlotte swap dates early in the season, with Charlotte’s Four-Wide Nationals still the last weekend in April but with Houston moved ahead instead of behind.

Saturday’s Supercross Round 11 in Seattle: How to watch, start times, schedules, streams

0 Comments

With three multiple winners now vying for the championship, the Monster Energy AMA Supercross Series heads to Round 11 at Lumen Field in Seattle, Washington.

Chase Sexton earned his second victory of the season in Detroit when Aaron Plessinger fell on the final lap. Though he was penalized seven points for disobeying a flag, Sexton is third in the championship race. The Honda rider trails leader Cooper Webb (two victories) by 17 points, and defending series champion Eli Tomac (five wins) is three points behind Webb in second with seven races remaining.

Tomac won last year in Seattle on the way to his second season title.

Honda riders have a Supercross-leading 20 victories in the Seattle event but none at Lumen Field since Justin Barcia in 2013. Tomac and Barcia are the only past 450 Seattke winners entered in Saturday’s event.
