Times were faster in the first qualification session, so Jett Lawrence (1:53.219 in Q1) will have the best gate pick for the Spring Creek National in Millville, Minnesota, but RJ Hampshire (1:55.611) topped Qualification 2 when track conditions are closer to what riders will face in Moto 1. Hampshire was third overall on the combined chart.
Chase Sexton (1:56.162) landed second on the Q2 chart.
Jett (1:56.391 in Q2) had plenty of speed to take the third position.
“I feel like the base is showing more this year,” Jett said after the conclusion of Q2. “I don’t know if they didn’t rip it as deep in a few sections, but it’s not as deep as the last time I remember. I missed last year, so I don’t know how it was last year. ... I’m just trying to be patient and find spots where you can be aggressive.”
Track officials were expecting rain on Friday and did not water the track as much as they normally would.
Aaron Plessinger (1:56.571) was fourth in the second qualification session.
Justin Cooper crashed in the session and started Q2 in pain. He did not run the entire session, and the team said they would make a race-time decision as to whether he would start. Cooper is second in combined SuperMotocross League points, chasing teammate Cooper Webb.
Webb has opted out of the remainder of Pro Motocross to deal with a minor knee injury.
Jorge Prado set the fastest lap early in the session at 1:56.610. In the first half of the session, the morning times were holding up as the fastest. Prado’s speed held up for fifth in this session. He was eighth in the combined qualifications.
Jett’s fastest lap in the first session was backed up by the second-fastest overall time of 1:53.293.
Eli Tomac was slow in the first session and did not improve in Q2. He was seventh on the rough track.

Qualification 1
Jett (1:53.219) and Hunter Lawrence (1:54.508) are firmly established as the fastest Pro Motocross riders at this stage of the 2025 season, and they proved as much at Spring Creek with the two fastest times. Jett was 1.290 seconds faster than his brother.
Plessinger (1:55.802) returned after missing Moto 2 in RedBud last week. He landed third on the chart with an almost identical gap to Hunter (1.295 seconds).
The bottom half of the top five was much closer: Fourth-place Cooper (1:55.874) was 0.073 seconds behind Plessinger, and Hampshire (1:56.102), .228 seconds further back to round out the top five.
Tomac (1:56.809) did not crack the top five. He was a distant seventh, more than 3.5 seconds behind Jett. Last week’s mechanical failure in Moto 1 at RedBud took some wind out of his sails.
Sexton (1:56.857) was eighth.
