Season Recap

[edit]

Justin Barcia opened the season with his second consecutive win at Anaheim 1.[6] One week later, Ken Roczen took his first win three years after suffering a hard crash that had left him with a badly injured arm. [7][8] At Round 3, Eli Tomac became the third different winner in as many races to open the 2020 season. [9] Roczen and Tomac would proceed to dominate the middle portion of the season, with the exception of the San Diego Supercross where defending champion Cooper Webb took the victory. [10] After the season was suspended by the COVID-19 pandemic, Feld Motor Sports announced the season would finish in four weeks with seven rounds in Salt Lake City, with Sunday and Wednesday rounds only.[2] Webb and Tomac would win most of the races while Roczen and Zach Osborne would each win 1. Tomac would win the title.
