Monster Energy/Pro Circuit/Kawasaki’s Blake Baggett Extends Points Lead with Win at Budds Creek

Irvine, Calif. – Monster Energy/Pro Circuit/Kawasaki's Blake Baggett scored his second win of the season at Round 5 of the 2012 AMA Pro Motocross Championship at Budds Creek MX Park in Mechanicsville, Md., with a 2-1 moto result. Baggett will continue carrying the coveted red plate on his Kawasaki KX250F for a fifth-consecutive week after extending his points lead to 13. His teammate Broc Tickle captured the first outdoor overall podium of his career aboard his KX450F, landing in second place with a 2-2 moto score. Monster Energy Kawasaki's Jake Weimer started off strong in the first 450 moto scoring third, but a fourth-place finish in Moto 2 left him just off the podium with fourth overall. Ivan Tedesco got good starts in both 250 motos, but not long after grabbing the holeshot in Moto 2 he crashed and had to pull off the track.
