Chase Sexton ended the 2025 Monster Energy AMA Supercross season with seven wins–a career-best total–and 12 podiums–one shy of his career best. All of that was in vain, however, as he ended just two points shy of 2025's champion, Cooper Webb. Seemingly, Sexton kept his hopes alive until the very final second and so he was left to process the close loss in the hours after Salt Lake City. '4' also made time to talk with Vital MX's Lewis Phillips and the two reflected on the situation. Is it fair to state that he deserves to feel as though he deserved the 450SX championship, without taking anything away from what Webb achieved? The answer to that will be subjective but the numbers–and final total–make it clear just how effective he has been. There is also a healthy dose of Pro Motocross talk; Sexton reveals that he has made significant steps forward in testing aboard his KTM 450 SX-F and feels confident ahead of round one at Fox Raceway on May 24. There is now time for him to refocus and reset before the battle to defend his number one plate starts.
