Baggett Dominates 250cc At RedBud

Blake Baggett turned in a dominant performance over the weekend at
RedBud Raceway in Buchanan, Michigan, winning both motos in the
250cc motocross class.
Justin Barcia jumped out into the lead in the first race, but
crashed out on lap four. Ryan Sipes took advantage and the lead,
but he ultimately couldn't hold off the charging Baggett, who
passed him on lap nine.
The second race was somewhat less exciting, as Baggett simply
jumped out to an early lead and ran wire-to-wire.
"Going 1-1 is a pretty good day I'd say," Baggett told Cycle News.
"The championship is still really far out. Neither of my teammates
has had a bad race yet, but if they do, I want to be there to
capitalize. I just want to be there in the end, and if it happens,
it happens. No matter what, I'm going to give it my all."
Dean Wilson, the overall points leader, didn't allow Baggett to
gain too much on him, as he finished second in both races. Wilson
now holds a fourteen-point lead over Bagget. Tyla Rattray, who is
also in the hunt for the championship, finished 5-3, good for third
overall.
