00:00Now, who gets the good advantage?
00:03Well, Jett Lawrence moves across on Mookie Stewart
00:06and up inside trying to muscle his way through
00:08just like he did in race one.
00:09Cooper Webb on the number one on the Yamaha.
00:12But it is Jett Lawrence who leads in race two.
00:16Stewart just behind him.
00:18Hopefully he's got whatever issues he had
00:20that he thought were problematic after Super Bowl
00:22fixed this time around.
00:23Yeah, I would think so.
00:24And really it's the uncertainty for Malcolm in race one
00:27that I think was a concern.
00:28I'm really curious to see how this race shapes up.
00:31We haven't seen these two go head-to-head so much yet.
00:35And I felt like Malcolm had a little bit more pace
00:37in race one, but now he's going to have
00:38his opportunity to show us.
00:40Hunter Lawrence down there behind us.
00:42Goffier as he battles in and around
00:44sort of the lower end of the pack there.
00:49But it's Jett Lawrence who leads the way
00:51from Malcolm Stewart.
00:52Will he put the quad here down this back straight
00:54if he gets this perfect?
00:57He decides not to.
00:59And if he does, and if Malcolm Stewart
01:00is close enough to see that,
01:02will he pop it next time around and think,
01:04yeah, man, that looks so easy,
01:05I'll just pop it as well.
01:07Always a risk to do something in the race
01:09for the first time,
01:10but Jett Lawrence did exactly that
01:11in that first race.
01:12But look at Malcolm Stewart.
01:14You said he was probably the fastest rider
01:15in race one, JT.
01:16He's looking to prove that here
01:19a little bit up and down
01:20and offline there in the whoops,
01:22but the commitment from Malcolm Stewart,
01:24absolutely next level.
01:26And Malcolm's bike honestly just looks
01:28like it's working a little bit better
01:30with the racetrack.
01:31You see Malcolm do a different rhythm
01:32quad there,
01:33but he's able to find more traction.
01:35You see kind of Jett stepping out
01:37and he's trying to be aggressive
01:39and the bike's just not really as,
01:41there it is, there's the quad.
01:42Oh!
01:43Malcolm has just looked like
01:44he's been glued to the racetrack
01:46more all weekend.
01:47You don't,
01:47it can be a lot of things.
01:48It can be settings,
01:48it can be the frame geometry,
01:50it can be the frame metallurgy.
01:52There can be a lot of things.
01:53It just has been kind of
01:54the theme of the weekend.
01:56Whereas Super Ass,
01:57he's in fifth place at the moment,
01:58but Jett Lawrence now just over
02:02a second clear.
02:03He's got the measure of Nuki
02:04over the whoops at the moment,
02:05speed-wise.
02:07But it's definitely a different
02:09Jett Lawrence we're seeing racing today.
02:11Yeah, and Malcolm's really shifted
02:13permanently to this 2, 3, 4, 1 line.
02:17I don't know if it's quicker.
02:18You know, they have so many tools now,
02:19video, and I don't know
02:21if they have their Dartfish technology
02:22set up necessarily for this weekend,
02:24but they would be able to gain that out
02:25and know exactly down to the 10th
02:27and know what's the quickest option.
02:30So, Nuki would have seen that first hand.
02:31You may have seen it on video.
02:33He's definitely seen it for real
02:34this time around.
02:35Be interested to see how he reacts to that
02:37because you can be slightly quicker
02:39through the whoops,
02:39more often than not.
02:40But when you have that gain
02:42and then you've got that quad,
02:44what is the difference?
02:443, 4 tenths?
02:46Yeah, and you just wonder,
02:46like, Malcolm's probably thinking,
02:48I don't really mean to do that.
02:49Yeah.
02:49You know, Jett's not in contention
02:50to win this thing.
02:51And Malcolm's honestly kind of
02:53in fast enough.
02:53Oh, there he goes.
02:54Right behind him.
02:55Perfect.
02:57And really, like,
02:58we were kind of talking about that.
02:59When I watched Jett do it
03:00in the first race,
03:02it didn't look like a jump
03:03that was difficult.
03:04As long as you caught the downside,
03:06you just give it everything
03:07that you've got,
03:08as Jett said,
03:08and you're there,
03:09especially if Malcolm has
03:10his full race bike here,
03:12which I don't know if he does.
03:13Yeah.
03:13The landing there,
03:14you see they're even clipping it
03:15a little bit.
03:15It's kind of forgiving.
03:17So on a technical level,
03:20difficulty-wise,
03:21big, yes,
03:22but not that challenging
03:24as far as technical.
03:25It's more of the fear
03:26of coming up short
03:26is really the technical level.
03:28Yeah.
03:28So four and a half minutes
03:32plus a lap to go.
03:33This second eight-minute
03:34plus lap race here in Paris,
03:36the 13-minute plus a lap race,
03:38the final race
03:38a little later on this afternoon
03:40to wrap things up.
03:41And it's Malcolm Stewart
03:42who's in the driving seat
03:43at the moment,
03:45who three wins yesterday,
03:47one course for two seconds today.
03:49It's so very consistent
03:52and looking to become
03:54the first brother combination
03:55to win the King of Paris
03:58because James Stewart
03:59was victorious in 2008.
04:01Old, original.
04:03Bursi Stadium.
04:05Not too far from Notre Dame,
04:06actually,
04:07just down the river.
04:10But 350 to go,
04:12plus a lap.
04:13Jet Lawrence doing what he does,
04:14just managing the situation perfectly.
04:16But yesterday,
04:17a different story,
04:18obviously,
04:18crashing in Super Bowl,
04:20crashing in Turn 2
04:20at the start of the race
04:21when Tom Vial
04:22got a little bit wayward on him
04:24in Turn 2,
04:25took him out.
04:25And then, of course,
04:26he had that moment
04:27where he looked like
04:27he folded the front
04:28in the final race.
04:29That's just after setting
04:30the fastest lap of the race
04:32and that cost him as well.
04:34So this weekend,
04:35and day two, sorry,
04:37just a completely different
04:38Jet Lawrence.
04:40I'm kind of trying to figure out
04:41how he doesn't get
04:41to go out of that lap.
04:42I'm trying to figure out
04:42what happened to Hunter.
04:43He's back at the sixth,
04:45pretty far back
04:46from the Vial
04:47and the Subairos group.
04:48So I'm not sure
04:48if he had an issue
04:49on the first lap
04:50or still feeling the effects
04:51of yesterday's crash.
04:53Cooper Webb there
04:54in third.
04:54Tom Vial
04:55a few bike lengths
04:56behind in that fourth position.
04:58Then Cedric Subirass
04:59a bit further back.
05:00Then, yeah, Lawrence,
05:02just Hunter Lawrence,
05:03just maybe a little bit now,
05:05just starting to feel
05:06the effects of that crash
05:07in the loop yesterday.
05:07Yeah, his times are pretty quick.
05:11He's nowhere near the leaders,
05:12but, I mean,
05:12he's doing 45,
05:13which is quicker
05:14than all the riders
05:15in front of him.
05:16So, I don't know,
05:17maybe just something we saw,
05:18something happened off camera
05:19that we didn't quite see.
05:20But also, again,
05:22you know,
05:23now you're thinking
05:24any chance of a real kind of podium
05:26is kind of out the window
05:27and stuff.
05:28That's just,
05:28we've got Australia,
05:29we go home tomorrow evening
05:30on a plane,
05:31get back Wednesday morning,
05:33a day to recover,
05:34and then you're probably
05:35straight to media
05:35and then the Australian Supercross
05:38there in Melbourne.
05:39So, just get through this one
05:41and show up healthy next week.
05:42Maybe that's the mindset there.
05:43But, Jet Lawrence,
05:44when you pull a hole shot,
05:45you're expected to win.
05:46But Malcolm Stewart
05:47making it very difficult
05:47for him this time around.
05:49Yeah, and I think Jet,
05:50you know,
05:50he's getting out front.
05:52For Hunter,
05:53what you can't do
05:54is make a difficult situation
05:55for us,
05:56which you are alluding to.
05:57So, if things aren't going
05:58very well,
05:59you don't want to
06:00press the issue here.
06:01But, Jet looks like
06:02his normal self here.
06:03Is he A1 level ready?
06:05Probably not,
06:06but you see him,
06:07he's not making
06:07all the mistakes
06:08that he seemed
06:09to be making yesterday.
06:10Looks a little bit
06:11more comfortable.
06:12Jet Lawrence eyeing
06:12up a podium.
06:13Look, he's only three points
06:14behind Subaru S
06:15as it stands right now
06:16for that third overall.
06:19Not what he came here for.
06:20That was just a moment ago
06:21coming out of that turn
06:22after the whoops
06:22down the start straight.
06:23Cost him a little bit of time.
06:25Malcolm Stewart,
06:25minute and a half to go.
06:27Plus a lap.
06:29Lap times last time around.
06:30Jet Lawrence,
06:3244-4,
06:3445-1 for Mookie.
06:38Malcolm Stewart,
06:39not going to give up
06:39the fight here though,
06:40is he?
06:40Do you sense?
06:41No, and I don't think
06:42Malcolm's taking any
06:44outside risk.
06:45I think this is just the pace
06:46he's been running all weekend
06:47and Jet has kind of
06:48finally found it,
06:49if that makes sense.
06:50Because if you look at the gaps,
06:52everything else is consistent.
06:53They're putting
06:54what will be 10 seconds
06:55into Webb.
06:56That's been pretty much
06:57the norm.
06:58I think Jet has just
06:59kind of gotten back
07:00to his normal self
07:01and now he's on the level
07:02with Malcolm.
07:02You probably didn't think
07:05you'd say that?
07:07I mean...
07:08Jet on the level of Malcolm.
07:09Well,
07:09I was talking about
07:11this earlier today.
07:13I really don't like
07:14drawing conclusions
07:15from off-season races.
07:16Larry Ward would be
07:17a multi-time
07:17Supercross champion
07:18if that were the case.
07:19Like that is,
07:20these races are unique,
07:22the dynamics are different,
07:23they come in a strange
07:24part of the season,
07:25the dirt's different,
07:26the tracks are different,
07:26but none of that
07:28should discount
07:29how great Malcolm has been
07:30as he closes up
07:31to the rear of Jet.
07:32So it can be
07:33its own thing
07:34without saying,
07:35well, this is what we saw
07:36and we're going to see
07:37this in 2026
07:38because of it.
07:39Yeah.
07:40Race one,
07:42final lap,
07:42Jet Lawrence got held up
07:43behind a couple of
07:44back markers
07:44that allowed Mookie
07:45to close in on him
07:46and we're in a similar
07:47situation here,
07:48aren't we?
07:48Back marker territory
07:49with Jet Lawrence
07:51as we go into
07:52the final couple of laps
07:54because obviously
07:54time's still on the clock
07:55as they hit the
07:56the line last time
07:57around,
07:58they'll take the one
07:58lap, the white flag
07:59next time.
08:02Back marker holds
08:03a nice tight line
08:03there,
08:04stays out of
08:05Malcolm Stewart's
08:06way.
08:07Ooh, lucky there.
08:10Not to blend,
08:11wasn't it?
08:11Yeah, and he's been
08:11cutting back
08:12and using that
08:13inside two,
08:14three, four.
08:17So over the
08:17Milwaukee wall jump
08:19through turn one,
08:21more traffic ahead
08:22of Jet Lawrence
08:23and he quads
08:24anyway,
08:25big move,
08:26that for Lawrence
08:26with a back marker
08:27ahead of him
08:27and a valentine
08:30and then he puts
08:32that back marker
08:33between him and
08:33Stewart as we go
08:34into the final lap
08:35look, white flag
08:36on the outside,
08:38right-hand side
08:38as a take-off
08:39on the finish line
08:40jump.
08:41Yeah, I don't think
08:42you'll see Malcolm
08:43do anything too
08:44crazy here.
08:451.2 seconds,
08:46the gap
08:46and Jet Lawrence
08:50efficient in race
08:52one, equally so
08:53in race two.
08:55Really nice line
08:56by Jet there
08:57wheeling into the
08:58sand there
08:58and saving him
08:58some time.
08:59would you say
09:01in terms of
09:03given the situation
09:03not on his race bike
09:04and given what
09:05happened yesterday
09:06Lawrence doing
09:07just enough to
09:07stay ahead of Malcolm
09:08or do you think
09:09it's a pretty
09:10close run thing
09:10with the way
09:11that Malcolm
09:11is riding
09:12keeping him honest?
09:13Oh, I think he's
09:13pushing.
09:14Jet's pushing here.
09:15Look at the gaps
09:16they're putting
09:16into everybody else.
09:17They're 14 seconds
09:18up on web now.
09:19and all these races
09:20even someone
09:21like Malcolm
09:21Stewart
09:21as the flag
09:22goes out
09:23Jet Lawrence
09:23wins it.
09:25Race two
09:25in the books
09:26Jet Lawrence
09:27going 1-1
09:28so far.
09:30Massive confidence
09:31boosts in terms
09:31of races
09:32and where
09:32Malcolm Stewart
09:33is at
09:33you know
09:34going into
