Preston Boesplug fractures femur in Indy Supercross 250 Showdown
Preston Boespflug crashed during qualification for the 250 East / West Showdown at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Indiana, and broke his femur. The crash occurred in one of the rhythm sections. Hardy Munoz could not avoid the fallen rider and ran over his legs before also crashing. The session was red-flagged, and Boespflug was carted off track by the Alpinestars Medical team. Dan Beaver, 'Rough day today in Supercross,' Boespflug said in a social media post, archived by Mitch Kendra. 'Ended up with a broken femur and a dislocated knee, but other than that, I'll be good.' Boespflug attempted to make his third feature start of the season after finishing 22nd in Tampa, Florida, and 19th in Detroit, Michigan.

Joey Savatgy suffers punctured lung, broken ribs in Indy Supercross crash
Coming off his best finish of ninth last week in Daytona Beach, Florida, Joey Savatgy crashed heavily on Lap 13 of Round 9 of the Monster Energy Supercross season at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Indiana, and suffered a punctured lung and broken ribs. 'Not really the way I wanted to spend my Sunday,' Savatgy posted on social media from his hospital room. 'Bummed, had a good night going and felt like I hit the same line as the laps prior. But clearly I made a mistake or something. Punctured lung and some broken ribs, weekend off came at a good time.' He did not provide a timeline for his return, but Savatgy seemed to indicate in his post that he could be back in action for the next round, which will come in Birmingham, Alabama, in two weeks. Savatgy was running eighth at the time of his crash on Lap 13, and the red cross flag was employed. Cooper Webb, the round winner, and Chase Sexton, who was running second at the time of the incident, credited that local caution as one of the reasons Webb rapidly extended his lead. Savatgy has qualified for all nine rounds' features with four top-10s to his credit.

Justin Barcia: "When I go and finally do it, someone's going to make a lot of money on me'
INDIANAPOLIS, Indiana: Justin Barcia hasn't paid a lot of attention to the new betting lines for the Monster Energy Supercross Series. Why should he when he isn't allowed to bet on the outcomes? But he knows that when he finally stands on the podium, his loyal fans will have a lot of reasons to be happy. That time may come sooner than later. Barcia has a special relationship with Lucas Oil Stadium. He's finished second here three times since 2020, most recently to Ken Roczen in 2023. How to Watch Indy Supercross 'I love Indy,' Barcia told NBC Sports. 'I am sponsored by Sram and Zipp bicycle company and they are based up here so I come see those guys any chance I get. I like Indy for that. ' But that is why he likes the city. The stadium is a different matter. 'The dirt here is extremely good,' Barcia said. "(I) just have a good mindset for this place. I've been coming here a long time; I've been going to a lot of tracks for a long time, but for some reason this just has a good vibe.' The new partnership between SuperMotocross and is changing the way fans look at dirt bike racing. While the odds often heavily favor one or two riders, such as Cooper Webb and Chase Sexton currently, it is a good gauge as to how the remainder of the field lines up statistically. Betting Lines and Predictions for Indy Barcia opened as the eighth-ranked rider in raw odds with a line of +462 to stand on the podium. 'When i go and finally do it, someone's going to make a lot of money on me,' Barcia said. 'Whoever bets on me is going to do good. 'I think (my odds of getting a podium this week) are good. It's just putting it all together and clicking. At Daytona, it was a shame: I was feeling really good and had some good stuff going and just got cleaned out in that heat race off the bat. That put us behind the ball, which stunk, and (we) made some bad changes for the main event. That was frustrating. But I've been saying a lot weekends, we are so close; I just need to make it happen. Just do it.' If Barcia gets a good launch from the gate and the Indy dirt treats him just a little better than it has in the four years, Barcia could become the seventh winner of the 2025 season. Should that happen, his opening line this week was +5648 for the outright win.
