    FOURTH IN DENVER SUPERCROSS A CONTINUATION OF JUSTIN BARCIA TURNAROUND

    View Profile

    A fourth-place finish from Troy Lee Designs/Red Bull/GASGAS Factory Racing rider Justin Barcia at Denver's penultimate stop of the 2024 AMA Supercross Championship saw him continue his rapid run of late-season form, making further progression that he's been building upon in recent weeks.

    • P4 result Bam Bam's best finish since San Diego podium
    • Troy Lee Designs/Red Bull/GASGAS Factory Racing makes further gains
    • Ryder D returns in an inspired ride to 11th position

    Barcia qualified ninth on his GASGAS MC 450F Factory Edition, before racing to fourth in the second 450SX Heat race of the round. After completing the opening lap in P6, a consistent effort in the Main Event saw him move forward to a fourth-place finish, which has in turn elevated him to ninth in the championship standings following 16 of 17 rounds.

    Justin Barcia: "Practice and Qualifying were good today, and then the Heat race was okay, even if fourth wasn't exactly what I wanted. Going into the Main, I knew the track had deteriorated and that my bike would work good on that in the hard-pack. I got a pretty good start, had a lot of intensity in the race, and we were just off the podium in fourth. All in all, it's been a positive couple of weekends, and we've got one more to go in Salt Lake City – podium or bust!"

    The resumption of 250SX West saw Ryder DiFrancesco back on track tonight inside the Empower Field at Mile High stadium equipped with the GASGAS MC 250F Factory Edition, where he qualified in P9 and then was fourth position in Heat 2 after leading initially.

    Trouble at the beginning of the Main Event saw him wedged at the back of the pack, however, from there he climbed all the way back to 11th by race's end in a well-earned result. He continues to sit 12th in the series with one round left to run.

    Ryder DiFrancesco: "Denver was okay, but not the result we wanted. In the Heat race I got a holeshot and led a few laps, which was good. In the Main Event I went down on the opening lap and ended up 11th, but came back even if I didn't ride very well. I'm excited to try and finish up good next weekend before we head outdoors!"

    Johannes Fischbach: “It’s great to join the GASGAS family and do my bit to push ahead with the development of their bikes. I have loved riding eMTB bikes ever since they came out. To race them now at the highest level in the E-EDR with GASGAS is a great opportunity I’m very grateful I got. The team is a natural fit, I can feel the passion for bikes here, so there’s going to be a lot of fun ahead for sure.”

    Alexandre Fayolle: “It's an amazing opportunity for me to join GASGAS this year. I'm really excited to work with motivated and professional people to improve my experience on the bike. The E-EDR season starts in June, so we have a little more time to test and try lots of new things! I'm really enjoying the process and can't wait to start the new season with everybody. With the experience I have gained from my last two years in the EWS-E I believe I can be really competitive and even more consistent.”

    Alex Marin: “Joining GASGAS is a new chapter that I’m really excited about. It might come as a surprise to people, but with the style and vibe they are putting out, it fits me perfectly so I can see us having a cool time together. I’ve always known the brand having grown up 20 minutes from their factory in Barcelona. When they stepped into ebikes I found it super interesting, so when they gave me the chance to be a part of the family, I knew straight away it was the right decision for me. I want to keep growing as a rider, create great content and tell my story. I’m excited to see how far we can take things.”
