00:00...and exit the racetrack.

00:11Tension starting to build. There goes the 30-second board.

00:14We're ready to go racing here, and BC Place dropped the gate!

00:21Headed to Carpe, turn number one, and it's Tomek out front,

00:25but boy, he slipped right in the middle of the corner.

00:27Everything broke away at the rear end of the Red Bull KTM,

00:30and Anderson on the 21 comes up the inside to take away the lead.

00:34And that came from gate number one, way inside the safe gate, Jeff,

00:39but he pushed everybody wide, cut under, takes the lead.

00:42What a start for Ombre.

00:43Tomek back to second place as he fights hard to get there,

00:46but Vince Friese got a tremendous start.

00:49He's in front of Tomek now just by a hair on that start.

00:53So it's the start versus the KTM as they come at you here.

00:57And there's Justin Cooper, the 32 on the Yamaha, the wild card for this event,

01:02has made his way past Friese, also, and Christian Craig's in there.

01:09Watching Tomek on that Red Bull KTM.

01:12Cooper right behind him now.

01:14Here's Anderson blasting through the whoops.

01:17Where's the start? There it is.

01:19Christian Craig up here on the 28 as well.

01:21He's holding down fourth right now.

01:23Friese has slipped back to fifth.

01:25Roxen trying to come up as quick as he can.

01:27He sits in sixth right now.

01:29Well, and for Ken Roxen, Jeff, the sweep, the perfection,

01:35everything going your way, well, he's being challenged right now.

01:38He's going to have to be his very best in a quick, quick race

01:41and go through Craig and Cooper and Tomek and Jason Anderson,

01:45who is taking off with a 1.6-second lead.

01:48Again, this is another short eight-lap race with 10 points up for grabs for the winner.

01:54Well, Ken Roxen at 94 there, the red plate.

01:57He's your points leader.

01:59This is the most adversity that he's had to face so far in this young championship.

02:04Oh, Savace off into the tough blocks, but he keeps it going.

02:07Yeah, and you see Friese's dropped back quite a few places.

02:11He got a good start, but everything was happening way too quick for him.

02:14Roxen is closing on Craig.

02:15That's quickly going to become a battle for fourth

02:18as we continue to watch Anderson getting hounded by Tomek.

02:23Tomek a little bit higher up on that burn.

02:24Gives a great drive off into this next rhythm lane as they come to the finish line jump.

02:28Anderson knows he has company.

02:30Tomek on the inside.

02:31New leader here in D.C. place, and the crowd comes to life here in Canada.

02:35Yeah, Anderson tried to cut down and kind of counteract what Tomek was doing,

02:40hit some tough blocks.

02:41Luckily, he didn't go down.

02:42Now, one of those tough blocks kind of kicked out in the middle of the track,

02:46so the other rider is going to come around to turn and have a little surprise.

02:50Roxen up to fourth very, very quickly.

02:52Now up to third on Justin Cooper, so that early race pace that he has,

02:56he is using it any better because now Eli's got that clear track.

03:00Kenny's got to get by Jason Quick.

03:01He's got his teammate in front of him on the other PMG bike, the other Suzuki.

03:06Anderson right there on the 21.

03:08Then Roxen, Cooper on the 32.

03:11And Craig coming inside of Cooper.

03:13Put him in front of that.

03:14That's going to move Christian Craig up to fourth,

03:16and Cooper slides back to fifth.

03:18Yeah, how do you got to feel if you're just a Cooper?

03:21You went out in one Super Pole, then all of a sudden now here in race one,

03:24you're getting shuffled back a little bit.

03:26But again, that's the difference between one lap and a whole race, right?

03:29Yeah.

03:30And we're halfway through this one, so there's still plenty of time for Roxen.

03:34If he can make another pass here, get around Anderson quickly,

03:37he might have a shot at Tomac before this is over.

03:41Let's go get an ad from Kristen Beat right now.

03:45Jason Anderson with a pressure being applied by his teammate, Ken Roxen.

03:49Now remember, after taking three months off earlier this season due to health issues,

03:52Jason Anderson is still rebuilding his conditioning.

03:55He sees the physio four times a week.

03:57He receives hyperbaric treatment.

03:58And now on this new bike, he's not just adapting to the chassis,

04:01but also trying to get his conditioning back.

04:04I'm curious if that will play a factor late in this race.

04:08Taking a look at these lap times, Ken Roxen fastest lap with a 54.5.

04:13Eli's just one tenth slower than that.

04:16So really, those are the two fastest riders on the track.

04:19Visually, though, it looks like Christian Craig there sitting on your screen on the Quandlok Honda.

04:25Something is definitely working right for him and currently setting back and forth.

04:31But I keep my eye on that number 28 also.

04:34Tomac was even quicker than that last lap.

04:36Extended the gap to two seconds between him and Anderson.

04:40But Roxen is closing the gap between him and his teammate.

04:44Here they come.

04:45Anderson on the 21.

04:46Roxen right behind him on the 94.

04:48And this might be a sprint race.

04:50But these races now count towards your overall and the championship.

04:54So for Ken Roxen, if he wants a shot at that overall, every pass is going to matter.

04:58So you can't just settle into third and then kind of speed your way into the final race.

05:03This pass might matter when it all is said and done.

05:06But Eli Tomac looks great.

05:07Anderson looks way better than he did a week ago.

05:09And Ken Roxen is dealing with that adversity pretty well.

05:11He's made moves.

05:12But now he has to find his way around his teammate on the PMG Suzuki.

05:16All right.

05:16So where's Roxen going to get him?

05:18He has caught Anderson.

05:19He's right there looking inside to the next corner.

05:22Anderson beats him there.

05:23There's just a couple of bike lengths between the two of them.

05:25I like the whoops.

05:26Working lap seven.

05:27This one is just about done.

05:29I like the whoops section.

05:30Even though Roxen is pretty quick through this tighter section at the end of the track.

05:34Like where he comes.

05:36Roxen looking inside.

05:37Not enough.

05:38Not enough.

05:38No.

05:39Anderson does a good job of fending him off for now.

05:41And that's where he got Cooper.

05:43Was in that corner doing that same rhythm.

05:45But Jason was a little bit further ahead.

05:47So Jeff maybe it's these whoops.

05:49Here we go.

05:49Here comes Tomac through those whoops.

05:51What do you guys think of how that KTM is handling for him through that tricky section?

05:54Yeah.

05:55He looks great.

05:55Like Tomac has definitely dialed in.

05:58No.

05:59Roxen is still in third.

06:00And Anderson has cut the gap between him and Tomac by a hair.

06:07All right.

06:07Let's take a look at these lap times.

06:09Tomac goes by at a 56.

06:11Anderson a 55.

06:12And Roxen a 54.9.

06:15So obviously Roxen fast is right on the track.

06:17Now he's switching up his lines.

06:19Can he inside?

06:20Trying to figure it out.

06:21Closer than he's been through this entire race.

06:23And we're on the final lap.

06:26Anderson's got to hold him off one more lap.

06:29And a big bobble by Roxen is going to cost him.

06:31And that might be enough for Anderson.

06:34Well and Anderson has reeled in.

06:35And Tomac, he might have backed off just a little bit.

06:38But the pressure from Roxen was forcing Anderson to pick up his pace.

06:43And it's tightened up quite a bit with just a few turns to go.

06:46Back into the whoops again.

06:47Here comes Tomac.

06:48Final couple of corners.

06:49Boy, he rode that front wheel those last few, didn't he?

06:51Oh, yeah.

06:55Nice and smoother.

06:56Here is the reigning world champion.

06:58Eli Tomac, final corner.

07:00He comes to the finish line jump.

07:02And Eli Tomac lights the candles here in the Canadian GP.

07:07Anderson will hold off Ken Roxen.

07:10So Roxen, for the first time in 2025, doesn't see the checkered flag first.

07:15Well, and as I look at timing and scoring, you know what is really interesting to me?

07:195.4 seconds separated first and fifth.

07:24First, that's almost wheel to wheel.

07:28Great start for all of them.

07:29I mean, everybody has something positive to take away.

07:32Even Justin Cooper had the fastest lap of his moto on that last one.

07:35So it's a little bit of a turnaround after a rough seven laps here.

07:38At least he could try to carry that into sprint race number two.

07:41And maybe just getting warmed up a little bit, he'll be better.

07:43And he was better in the final races last week also.
