00:00the gate
00:01aranda with a great start on the 20th goes wide but cibachi tries to come up the inside and joey
00:15is going to get the lead early on that number 17 quadlock honda
00:19and aranda is right after him and look at eli tomac and coming with tomac as roxon
00:26and also in the mix is the 28 of christian craig for the other quadlock honda
00:31roxon with a bit of a bobble that's going to cost him at least three spots through there
00:39wow i'll tell you what the sound of 450s off that gate gives me absolute chills and i can only imagine
00:47what joey cevacci felt in that first corner when he made the move to the lead gets up front backing
00:52up super bowl what a feeling yeah he's going to get a whole nother feeling here too as he's getting
00:56hounded by eli tomac on that red bull ktm oh wow roxon tried to get to the inside on craig
01:03and it didn't work out and you can see craig look back over his shoulder at him as he squirts away
01:09but this is ken roxon's mo he likes to attack early make moves so i like the aggression he just wasn't
01:15able to make two of those moves work but he better hurry because if tomac gets by savaggi gets that
01:20open track good luck in an eight lap sprint but like joey look at what he's doing here playing
01:26great defense leading the way and look at christian craig as well craig on the other quadlock
01:30honda is all over the backside of tomac so they've got him bookended for now and here's cooper webb
01:37webb is up to six and he's trying to close up on the backside of roxon right now yeah he's opening
01:44that roxon and a ran inside on tomac and christian craig makes a great move to put the quadlock racing
01:51hondas one and two oh then he bobbles and hands it right back to tomac and the ktm you know what
01:58roxon now gets inside of the 20 of aranda and that'll move him up a spot give him fourth for now
02:04i think the fans are loving this action early in this race we've got battles all over the place
02:11and if you're christian craig do it again i mean that should be a confidence lifter to follow up
02:17with the way you wrote in practice today you pass eli tomac he's sitting right there get him again
02:22and you better hurry because here comes kenny yeah well tomac's getting a little aggressive too
02:26looks like he's tired of waiting he fended off craig and now he's thinking i better just get around
02:31this 17 and get going and there it is tomac makes the move and the red bull ktm goes into the lead
02:37the thrill and the applause of the crowd here in australia sebachi tries to attack back at the 17
02:44can't get it done inside he goes tomac cuts it up oh and he almost t-bones sebachi and roxon gets
02:51around sebachi on the outside great racing action here at the australian gp incredible an incredible
02:57race craft sebachi looking inside on roxon but kenny gets away kenny was so sneaky through all that he
03:03made the move by craig and joey and he's so good in those moments and now we get it again vancouver
03:082.0 it's tomac and roxon let's go tomac trying to find his line get his rhythm going he knows roxon's
03:17there and roxon ready to battle his old nemesis here as they fight a pair of world champions tomac the
03:26reigning world champ roxon a two-time world champion and here they come through the wolves look how quick
03:32they two are oh roxon squares it up and can't get him at the finish line jump
03:36tomac goes inside roxon takes the highlight to the next corner roxon on the outside again can he get it
03:45done yes ken roxon to the lead 15 years of this these boys go back to their youth they've been
03:53battling since the 250 days even mini bike days and here they are in their 30s pushing the limit
03:59and for this moment ken roxon makes the move and gets the better of the number one of eli tomac great
04:05work kenny and this is exactly why we have a sold out stadium here on the gold coast these australian fans
04:10have been so anxious to see these top level legends battling it out just like they are here
04:16tonight and these racers are delivering in the australian gp and think back to those mistakes
04:22oh roxon oh man tapping into the tough blocks he was so close to the edge of the track to the
04:27wolf ralph a first lap mistake a second lap mistake he recovers he regroups that race path
04:32comes into play he gets craig gets the botchy nice and slick and then one-on-one with the legend tomac
04:38this is an incredible moment and ride by ken roxon not only did he get around him he's pulling away
04:45from him the gap right now is a second and a half
04:49what an answer for vancouver i mean and this is almost done we're already up to lap six here
04:59of the scheduled eight and roxon looking for ten points here just a perfect balance of aggression
05:06craft and throttle control on a slick track i mean kenny is at the top of his game right now as the
05:14battle heats up between them teammates it ain't over with them tomac still getting through the top of the
05:20whoops as good as anybody ever has and craig and savachi this is a bit of a blow i got to believe
05:28to joey savachi daniel not only has he lost the leads and second but he's lost third to his teammate
05:35yeah tough go after winning the super bowl hey jason anderson got smacked pretty good by a ronda there
05:42took him out in the corner before the finish line jumped you're gonna see his name drop yeah down to
05:4610th now but good ride by christian craig he needs to build off of what he did in those early laps
05:51joey savachi bass and super pole but tough first race for him and cooper webb oh to fifth and closing
05:58big problems here that was savachi on the and guess what webb goes by savachi with a huge problem
06:06webb gets around him and joey loses another spot you don't often see teammate on teammate crime right
06:14there for christian craig he keeps it together goes wide looks back savachi loses the spot wow there
06:19might be some words back in the quad lock honda truck after that one that was pretty aggressive
06:23after that quad and unfortunately team owner yurik konski not here tonight to keep things cool if it does get
06:31elevated passion wise yeah this is sprint race one i think with what we're seeing so far i think we're just
06:37getting started on the night but this man is so impressive and again it's hard to lose a supercross
06:43race and then bounce back to next weekend on a legend like eli tomac but kenny put his head down
06:49in that one i mean he was perfect from lap three on and that's great recovery too because those two big
06:54mistakes could have cost him and shook him up a little bit it did nothing of a source on to the final
06:59lap here ken roxon out front and leading the points leader coming to the checkered flag ken roxon will win
07:08sx race one sx one race one here tonight at the australian gp
