PALA, California: Chance Hymas (2:16.952) kept the drama alive until the final lap of the second 250 Qualification session.
Haiden Deegan (2:18.592) was already on the podium, ready to give an interview and accept the accolades for being the fastest when Hymas crossed the finish line jump and waved his fist in the air.
Julien Beaumer (2:18.623) finished third on the combined chart.
Garrett Marchbanks (2:18.635) was fast early before settling into fourth.
Levi Kitchen (2:18.830) rounded out the top five.
Garrett Marchbanks led the first half of the second qualification session, but a relaxed Deegan jumped to the top of the board as the track developed more bumps and ruts.
Combined times through Qualification 2
In the first Qualification session for the 250 class, Deegan (2:18.940) posted a lap that was nearly one second faster than the field.
Tom Vialle (2:19.909) was second on the chart, giving the two reigning 250 divisional champions the top of the board. Both fast laps came at the end of the session as the riders re-familiarized with the course.
Kitchen (2:20.205) was third on the chart as he looks to extend his momentum from last year’s Pro MX title fight. He was injured, with a broken collarbone, midway through the Monster Energy Supercross season. This is his first SuperMotocross race since then.
Also returning from injury, Ryder DiFrancesco (2:20.719) was fourth on the board.
Ty Masterpool (2:21.077) rounded out the top five.
