BLAKE BAGGETT
Having missed six of the first eight rounds so far this season, Blake Baggett has turned
his bleak season around by posting impressive finishes since returning in Daytona. Now a sophomore in the supercross class, Baggett’s freshman year was full of surprises as the Suzuki rider put together a top-5 season with one podium and boatload of consistent finishes. As mentioned in previous issues of Grit, Baggett’s butter is usually spread on the outdoor circuit’s bread, as Blake usually has a more difficult time under the lights. With such a solid season, though, the newest #4 has shown he can still mix it up inside and coming off a 5th in Indy and a 12th last weekend in St. Louis, Baggett tries to find a balance towards the front of the pack as Gillette Stadium makes its supercross debut for the second day race of the season.
