Eli Tomac didn’t have his best form with a subdued fifth as Webb took out Prado and himself early in the race but almost passed Tomac back at the end, taking sixth, leaving him 26 points off the lead.
Roczen eased away for the win, with Sexton looking much better in second on his return and Malcolm Stewart on the podium in third.
Roczen, who is now just 14 points back of new championship leader, Tomac, said: “I want to scream. This is exactly what I was talking about. It was a tough main event, the track was so tough, the whoops were 50/50 chance you would make it through.We are excited for next weekend and keep our head on our shoulders.“

Cole Davies put on a clinic after terrible start left him outside the top ten with Shimoda and Hammaker up front behind holeshot man Thrasher. Thrasher crashed out of the lead in the whoops as Davies torre through the field, the Kiwi super-takent passed a subdued Shimoda then caught and quickly passed Hammaker with authority in the whoops to take dominant win in a statement ride.
Davies said: “When I don’t perform I am pretty hard on myself. Me, my family and the people around me put in so much work so when I don’t perform like I know I can, I am pretty hard on myself. I’m stoked with that, that’s how I know how to ride.”
Davies gets the drive through the whoops and takes the lead ⚔️ #SupercrossLIVE #SMX #Yamaha pic.twitter.com/fkkssdkeXG
