Cooper Webb, a seasoned 450SX class veteran, continues to prove his competitive edge in the Monster Energy AMA Supercross Championship, securing fourth and third-place finishes in the opening rounds at Anaheim and San Diego.

With two championship titles (2019, 2021) and two runner-up positions (2020, 2024) under his belt, the 29-year-old racer embraces the evolving landscape of the sport, competing against both established veterans and rising stars like Jett Lawrence and Chase Sexton.

At San Diego's Snapdragon Stadium, Webb demonstrated his prowess by leading the main event until the halfway mark, ultimately finishing third despite physical challenges. His performance showcased the resilience that has made him a consistent championship contender.

"There are five AMA Supercross champions on the line, so it's not easy by any means," Webb notes. "I'm definitely at a point now where I'm getting to be the veteran of the class, but I'm definitely here to win."

Now in his second season with Monster Energy Star Racing Yamaha, Webb views teammate Eli Tomac and Jett Lawrence as his primary championship rivals. Currently fourth in points, he maintains his characteristic under-the-radar approach while pursuing his goal of becoming a three-time Supercross champion.

"I know my attributes - being a fighter and an experienced guy that leans on racecraft and puts myself in good situations," Webb reflects. "Each day I go to the track with the intention to get better. I still have that drive."
