Rockstar Energy GASGAS Factory Racing’s Justin Barcia charged to a season-best fourth-place finish at Round 9 of the 2025 AMA Supercross Championship in Indianapolis, piecing together a strong result after producing front-running speed throughout the event. Justin Barcia scores season-best fourth place finish in Indy Front-running pace on show from BAMBAM across all sessions! Special livery worn in support of 'Love Moto Stop Cancer' round In the 450SX qualifying sessions, Barcia set the 10th-fastest time equipped with the GASGAS MC 450F Factory Edition, effectively building an understanding of the rutted and tricky Indianapolis terrain. A mid-field start in the Heat Race saw BAMBAM steadily make his way through the pack, making a series of decisive passes that would earn the number 51 a commendable second place score by race's end. In the premier class Main Event, Barcia launched to his first holeshot of the season, battling up front as the gates dropped. Remaining strong and fast on a track that proved ultra-challenging by the closing stages of the race, the New York native came home in an inspired fourth position, continuing his mid-season trend in the right direction. As a result, he retains seventh in the 450SX standings. Justin Barcia: "We’ve been grinding down at the Baker’s Factory and I have a new baby now, so it’s been a lot, for sure! I can’t thank my whole Rockstar Energy GASGAS Factory Racing Team enough, it's been challenging at times, but they keep believing in me – I have grit and heart, so this was a big step tonight. I wanted that podium, but we’ve got a weekend off, so we’ll grit our teeth and work hard. We tried a few things on the bike at Daytona and went the wrong way, but today we went back to our base and changed barely anything, so that’s where we need to stay at. It’s more about me riding hard with the boys during the week now, they’re great riders and it’s really elevating me, so I'm excited for what's to come!” Next Race: March 22 – Birmingham, Alabama Results 450SX Class – Indianapolis 1.

Rockstar Energy GASGAS Factory Racing rider Justin Barcia charged to a 10th-place finish at Round 8 of the 2025 AMA Supercross Championship in Daytona, Florida, on Saturday night, putting together a consistent performance in one of the toughest races of the year. Top 10 form continues for Justin Barcia at Daytona BAMBAM aiming for more through the mid-stages of Supercross Currently positioned seventh in 450SX standings In the 450SX qualifying sessions this afternoon, Barcia set the ninth-fastest lap-time onboard his GASGAS MC 450F Factory Edition, with the Daytona track layout a mixture of loamy, motocross-style elements among ultra-technical Supercross obstacles at the famed speedway. The number 51 got off to a strong start in his Heat Race, before being caught up in an incident through the opening rhythm lane and going down. Remounting at the rear of the field, Barcia clawed his way into eighth, earning a direct transfer to the Main Event. On a deteriorating circuit, Barcia maintained consistency throughout the Main Event despite a mid-pack start, with a 10th place finish the final result for the Rockstar Energy GASGAS Factory Racing rider. It marked his seventh top 10 score in eight rounds, currently sitting P7 in the standings. Justin Barcia: "Daytona is always tough, no matter where you finish. I wasn’t able to find comfort today, we were searching a little bit, which is a bit frustrating given I rode super-good last weekend. Daytona is a different beast altogether, so I am keen to get back indoors, get to Indy, and put the bike back up front.” Next Race: March 8 – Indianapolis, Indiana Results 450SX Class – Daytona 1.
