| After an impressive 1-1 finish in his return to AMA Toyota Motocross, Monster Energy Kawasaski's James Stewart is a unanimous number one after our first round of racing. Second place in this week's poll, who also was our biggest mover, is Rockstar/Makita Suzuki's Mike Alessi, who logged a consistent and impressive 2-2 behind Stewart, who many believe is the fastest rider on the planet. Our first Lites class rider comes in third, and that's the defending two-time AMA Motocross Lites champion, Ryan Villopoto, who used 5-1 scores to card second overall behind his teammate, Austin Stroupe, who moved up seven spots to fourth. And rounding out the top five is Honda Red Bull Racing's Davi Millsaps, who finished a distant third overall in the AMA Motocross division. Riders new to the top 25 include Michael Byrne, Sean Hamblin, Cody Cooper, Matt Lemoine, Jeff Alessi and Kyle Cunningham. Check out this week's top 25 riders in AMA motocross below:
