Cooper Webb crowned King of Paris Supercross after two nights of racing

Cooper Webb dethroned Jett Lawrence with consistency in the 2024 Paris Supercross at La Defense Arena and was crowned the King of Paris.

Webb finished second in both Sunday motos and was third in the Super Pole session, which combined with his third-place in Saturday’s Moto 1, victory in the second race, and third-place finish in that Super Pole session combined for 13 points in the Olympic style scoring to give him the overall win.

The top five riders in Night 1 of the Paris Supercross were Monster Energy Supercross regulars.

Webb edged Malcolm Stewart’s 16 points as both riders showed a lot of consistency. Stewart finished no worse than fourth in one of the six sessions. The highlight of his weekend was a pair of runner-up finishes in Saturday’s motos. He was also second in Sunday’s Super Pole session.

Lawrence failed to defend his 2023 Paris Supercross crown, but he was arguably the top rider of the weekend. He swept the motos and Super Pole on Sunday and won two of the three Saturday sessions, but he failed to successfully navigate traffic in Moto 2 on Saturday and crashed. Credited with 13th-place in that race, he was five points off Webb’s score to round out the podium.

Jett’s brother Hunter Lawrence finished fourth and third in Sunday’s motos, which added to his fourth-place finish in the Super Pole and Saturday’s results placed him fourth overall.

The 2024 season began with questions about how Dylan Ferrandis would transition to Phoenix Honda. Those queries remain.

France’s Dylan Ferrandis finished fifth in both motos on Sunday and finished 12th in the Super Pole session to round out the top five.

In the SX2 (250cc) class, Tom Vialle overcame a Moto 1 crash on Saturday to win four of the other five sessions and was crowned the Prince of Paris.

He tied in points with Anthony Bourdon, winner of Night 1, but Vialle’s four wins, one of which came in Moto 2 Sunday night, Vialle earned the tiebreaker.

Max Anstie’s return to the 250 division in 2023 was the best move of his career.

Maxime Desprey rounded out the podium with 24 points and a best result of second in Sunday’s Moto 2.

The defending Prince of Paris, Jo Shimoda finished fifth overall.
