2025 RedBud Motocross 250 Qualification: Ryder DiFrancesco earns first fastest time

Ryder DiFrancesco (2:08.014) backed up his early fast time at RedBud MX Park in Buchanan, Michigan, with the fastest time in the second session and fastest time overall.

“I have mixed emotions, to be honest,” DiFrancesco told Peacock’s Jason Thomas. “This is my first fastest qualifier, at the pro ranks at least, but it feels normal. I can’t wait to get out there and show these RedBud fans a good start and two good motos.”

Haiden Deegan (2:08.563) caught a rut in the second session and crashed hard. He was slow to rise, but remounted and continued in the session. The Young Gun showed his toughness by setting a heater lap after rising from the crash. Reports after the session indicated he was fine and only suffered a Charlie Horse. On further analysis, it was a deep bruise.

Dilan Schwartz (2:10.015) continued to show speed after posting a top-five lap in Q1. He was third on the Q2 chart.

Fourth-place Jo Shimoda (2:10.756) and Julien Beaumer (2:10.813) rounded out the top five.

Jett Lawrence isn’t always the fastest in practice, but after last week’s dominant performance in Southwick, he’s picking up where he left off.

Qualification 1

DiFrancesco (2:10.274) made his presence known in the first qualification session for the RedBud Nationals in Buchanan, Michigan, as he topped the chart and hopes to hold onto his speed and the best gate pick.

After sweeping both qualification sessions at Southwick last week Deegan (2:10.357) landed second on the chart. Deegan not only swept qualification last week, he had a perfect weekend.

Seth Hammaker (2:11.424) grabbed the third position. He’s looking for his first overall top five of the season.

Fourth-place Tom Vialle (2:12.133) and Schwartz (2:12.382) rounded out the top five.

Schwartz’s best finish so far this season was an eighth at Thunder Valley.
