Roczen takes triple crown race win and another main event podium

Ken Roczen took a race win in the weekend's triple crown format to finish on the overall podium at Glendale and the fourth round of the AMA Supercross Championship.

Roczen arrived with the red plate and the series lead, and continued his strong start to the season by picking up another main event podium. In the three triple crown races he finished fourth in race one before storming to victory in race two. A fifth in the final outing gave him a points total for third place overall.

Roczen remains firmly in the championship hunt, sitting second overall and two points of the series lead.

"It was some good racing," reflected Roczen after the event. "The track was awesome. It got more and more difficult toward the end of the night. I made the pass on Justin Barcia in the third race for the podium. I am stoked to be back on the box and am looking forward to Tampa this weekend."
