450MX AMA PRO MOTOCROSS CHAMPION ELI TOMAC P156 Interview ROUND 4 Heading pell-mell into the fourth round of the outdoor season, Tomac found himself a mere two points adrift of Roczen. The undulating, quirky, and off-cambered Pennsylvania track served as an excellent backdrop for the two combatants and two-time 450MX title winners. "Mount Morris, that track has always been a little bit hit-and-miss for me," explained Tomac, whose 3-2 took the measure of runner-up to Roczen's 6-1. "I've had years where I have totally been the guy there, and this year I was struggling even in practice to try and find speed. I was a little bit off of the pace, and that's kind of how the day felt, really. My moto scores were 3-2, and it was actually one of the few times in my career where I won the overall without winning a moto, so that was a fortunate day for points. However, it was also a day where I felt like I was playing catch up the whole time." HIGH POINT RACEWAY MOUNT MORRIS, PENNSYLVANIA JUNE 15, 2019 1st PLACE (3-2) It's not rare for Tomac to take an overall victory, but it is when he doesn't win a moto, but that's what happened at High Point. "EVERY MOTO COUNTS IN MOTOCROSS. WHEN YOU'RE SLIPPING IN POINTS, YOU ABSOLUTELY KNOW THAT CAN HURT YOU IN THE END."
