2018 St. Louis 250cc Supercross Results: Rockstar Energy Husqvarna’s Zach Osborne came out swinging at round one of the 2018 250cc Eastern Regional Supercross Series in Arlington, Texas, a month ago, but in the time since, he’s found himself coming from behind while Monster Energy/Pro Circuit Kawasaki’s Austin Forkner took his first two supercross wins and tied Osborne atop the points with a podium finish in Daytona a week ago. But, in St. Louis tonight, Osborne finally retaliated.

Forkner started out front in the main event, but Osborne was hot on his heels, and just as he started putting some extra pressure on Forkner around the halfway point, Forkner made a costly error, getting kicked off the top of a Dragon’s Back and going down awkwardly. Osborne took over the lead in front of GEICO Honda’s Jeremy Martin and TLD/Red Bull KTM’s Jordon Smith.
Forkner got up fifth, then lost more time when he collided with lapper Ramyller Alves a few laps later. Osborne ended up taking the win over Martin, with Smith hanging on for third. Fourth went to AutoTrader/JGR Suzuki’s Kyle Peters, and then Forkner in fifth, after passing Cycle Trader/Rock River Yamaha’s Brandon Hartranft in the final laps.
