Ben Bostrom won the Super Moto X race (and gold medal) at the X Games Sunday at the Home Depot Center in Carson, California.
Bostrom, a full-time AMA Superbike road racer for American Honda who won the AMA Supermoto Championship in his spare time last year, passed reigning FIM Supermoto World Champion Eddy Seel in the final corners to capture the victory.
Seel took second, and multi-time Supercross Champion Jeremy McGrath finished third.
Bostrom’s victory came on a course described by ESPN.com as 70 percent “Supercross-style dirt section” and 30 percent pavement.
