Jason Anderson
“We have done a lot of testing in the offseason and it was awesome to see it all pay off by starting the year off with a podium. Finishing second in the heat race gave me the confidence for the main event. Off the start, I got very sideways and was leaning on everyone, but was able to muscle my way to the front pack. Battling with my Monster Energy Kawasaki teammate up front in the first few laps was incredible, but I was able to make the pass lead some laps. Overall it was a great opening night for the 2025 season and I am excited to line up next weekend in San Diego.”
Jorge Prado
“Anaheim 1 is done and there are so many positives to take from the night. I placed second in my heat race, grabbed a holeshot in the main event and even led some laps. This shows that I mean business and I can fight for the top spot any night. I cannot ask for more in my first race with the Monster Energy Kawasaki team and they worked so hard to put me in a position to battle up front. I am looking forward to getting redemption next weekend in San Diego.”
Garrett Marchbanks
“It was a tough day in the office for me after grabbing a solid start in the main event. I felt good all day, but small mistakes kept me from showing my true potential. We will go back to the drawing board and come back stronger next week. Thank you to the support behind me with Monster Energy Pro Circuit Kawasaki. We will make it happen next week in San Diego.”
