Today’s Supercross Round 12 race in Salt Lake City: Start time, TV and info

TDgyLxHH4YVh
Eli Tomac won convincingly in Salt Kae City to extend his points lead, while Shane McElrath blazed his way to victory in the 250SX.

After a strong return from an 85-day layoff, Eli Tomac will return to defend his points lead barely more than 72 hours after Supercross resumed its 2020 season.

The Kawasaki rider won Sunday to increase his lead in the 450 class of Monster Energy AMA Supercross to eight points over Honda rider Ken Roczen, who hung in for third at Rice-Eccles Stadium.

KTM’s Cooper Webb, who is third in the standings, finished second to Tomac in Round 11.

SEASON RESTART: Supercross holding final seven races in Utah

The victory was Tomac’s sixth of the season and his second consecutive -- though his last was March 7 at Daytona International Speedway in Round 10.

After a nearly three-month pause because of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the final seven races of the season will conclude over three weeks in Salt Lake City, Utah. With social distancing restrictions, access to the stadium is limited, and the events will be held without fans.

The next race will be Round 12 Wednesday at 10 p.m. ET.

FIVE THINGS TO WATCH: A look at some of the burning issues as Supercross restarts its 2020 season after a nearly three-month interruption.

COVID-19 IMPACT: Earlier this month, Feld Entertainment senior director of two-wheel operations Dave Prater confirmed that protocols for the final seven races will include COVID-19 testing for everyone on-site at Rice-Eccles Stadium. A negative result will be required to enter the stadium’s perimeter; only one test will be necessary as long as the person remains in Utah throughout the seven-race stretch.

Additional protocols include temperature checks (administered when someone enters the stadium perimeter), face masks, increased sanitation efforts and social distancing.
