With more than 57,000 fans looking on, the United States Supercross Championships made its annual trip to Texas on Saturday night for the sixth round of the 2017 season.

On a dramatic night of racing, Frenchman Marvin Musquin rode brilliantly to score his first-career 450SX class victory with a dominant wire-to-wire effort aboard his Team Red Bull KTM Factory Racing machine.

In the Western Regional 250SX Class, Monster Energy/Pro Circuit/Kawasaki’s Justin Hill took advantage of misfortune experienced by Troy Lee Designs/Red Bull/KTM’s Shane McElrath to claim his fourth consecutive win and extend his championship points lead.

The 2017 Monster Energy Supercross season continues next Saturday, February 18, with the seventh round and its debut inside the new U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis. It will mark the championship’s return to Minnesota for the first time since 2013.
