2017 Monster Energy Cup Qualifying: Qualifying’s done and dusted at the Monster Energy Cup, and Rockstar Energy Husqvarna’s Dean Wilson managed to top the charts with a phenomenal time in the first timed session, followed closely by Monster Energy Kawasaki’s Eli Tomac from the same session. In fact, the top eight qualifying spots all were determined by the times from the first session. The first exception to that is Tomac’s teammate Josh Grant in ninth; he was fifth-fastest in the final timed session.
