Jordon Smith Charges Hard at Anaheim 2

Racing Triumph Motorcycle 27th Jan 2025

Triumph Racing Factory Team’s Jordon Smith has secured a hard-fought fourth-place result at round three of the 2025 AMA Supercross Championship, held in front of a near-capacity crowd at Anaheim's Angel Stadium. Battling rain-soaked conditions aboard his TF 250-X, Smith’s strong performance sees him hold third in the 250SX West standings, just nine points off the championship lead.

Smith, riding a wave of momentum from rounds one and two, was quick to take control of third position in the 250SX main event. The race was a test of determination – consistent rainfall caused the slick surface to become more deceiving with each passing lap. Smith closed in on the runner-up spot as the race progressed and was poised to make a move on the final lap but made a costly error in the whoops section that put him on the ground.

Remounting to salvage fourth place, Smith has kept himself in title contention as the 250SX West halfway point looms. Classified third in the championship standings, he lies just two points from second and nine points adrift of the red plate.

Jordon Smith and the Triumph Racing Factory Team will strive to return to the 250SX West podium when AMA Supercross resumes in Glendale, Arizona, next weekend.

Jordon Smith:

"It was a pretty good day. I think that we made some really good progress as a team this week. It was unfortunate to go down whilst pushing for second, but luckily, we were able to get up in fourth and not lose too many points. It was a good day despite not being where we wanted to finish in the main. We will come back swinging for Glendale!"

Jeremy Coker – General Manager, Triumph Racing America:

"Today was a good day from start to finish. Jordon was pushing hard for second with one lap to go and had an unfortunate crash but was able to get up and save fourth. We will go back to work this week and get back on the box next weekend."
