In just his third race back from injury, Rockstar Energy GASGAS Factory Racing’s Justin Barcia charged to a top-five result in Round 7 of the 2025 AMA Pro Motocross Championship at Spring Creek, rewarded through consistency with fifth overall in 450MX.
- Consistency lands BAMBAM P5 result overall in Millville!
- Fourth in 250MX qualifying further signals Ryder D's potential
- Speed displayed by both riders throughout Round 7
Equipped with his GASGAS MC 450F Factory Edition, BAMBAM charged to an eighth-place score in Millville's opening premier class moto, before improving to P7 in Moto 2 amidst rough, hard-pack conditions.
That combination of results at the Spring Creek National earned the number 51 fifth overall for the weekend, which was a convincing effort given the depth of the 450MX class in 2025.
Justin Barcia: "Millville was good! Practice wasn't great, though, since I've been back, we've been using that session to just try and get myself comfy, and then each moto today we got more and more comfortable. Second moto was solid, we charged hard in both races and ended up getting fifth overall. I didn't expect a top-five just yet, but we will take it! We're making a lot of progress, the whole crew is doing a great job, and I'm excited to keep building into Washouga. After the break, I think we'll take an even bigger step forward."
GASGAS MC 250F Factory Edition-mounted DiFrancesco impressed with the fourth-fastest time in 250MX qualifying, continuing his single-lap form shown from the previous round at RedBud. The races would prove more challenging, however, going on to record a 17-15 scorecard for 18th overall.
