00:00looking around sizing everybody up he's got Austin Politelli just to his right there
00:10and then you've got the 46 at Justin Hill
00:14on the other side of the doghouse it's these guys
00:20boy are they good
00:23hey Brees could get another great start on that 200
00:28keep your eyes on him don't count him out Ryan on that
00:31Moto Concepts Racing Honda but there to the right side of the W the doghouse you see Cooper Webb
00:38and then jump a couple you see Roxen and Tomac and Savace and Anderson right there with Craig
00:44on the far outsides so you would assume the best start hole shots are going to come from that side
00:51of the W and the doghouse that's where the picks remain now my eyes are on the one and the 94
00:57you got to be better in this one Cooper Webb all right time to be done with the talking
01:03let's drop the gate and go racing in Australia
01:05and when it matters most Tomac delivers with a great start he's going to lead him
01:14Eli Tomac on the number one Red Bull KTM but Hayden Deegan got a great start
01:20he's right there in second Hayden Deegan's going after the reigning world champions
01:25Rossen with a terrible start with where he's back in the pack with Cooper Webb
01:31boys what are you doing back there you got all big crash you got 12 laps to make some moves but
01:36Hayden Deegan versus Eli Tomac now I don't know how this is going to go but Ralph
01:41these this is a massive gap in generation right here all Christian Craig these eight
01:46these are buddies right here Christian Craig was a coach of Hayden Deegan earlier this season but
01:51and he gets in there he's got him but Deegan bounces right back to challenge
01:57and get Hayden Deegan inside gets back around Craig for a brief second Craig got a whole big handful of
02:05throttle got back around him again and school is in session right now for Hayden Deegan soaking all of this up
02:12absolutely what an opportunity surrounded by 30 year old and up legends these guys have so much awe
02:21it's Anderson that's a bummer for the championship points wow
02:26the pipes motorsports group racer Jason El Hombre Anderson out
02:31and Roxxon has closed up pretty quick Roxxon finds himself in sixth behind Savace
02:38Roxxon just cased the triple so bad went off the track lost the spot big bubble
02:46Christian Craig is right there to try to capitalize Craig on the 28 he's gonna have the line on the inside he's got the new leader
02:54Wow nice work Christian Craig Craig doing a great job
03:01and he puts the quad lock Honda right to the front and Yariv Khonski takes a big sigh of relief his guys are leading at his home GP
03:10absolutely and if you're Christian Craig you've heard us hype up Tomac and Deegan you're probably thinking you know what get me on that track I'm getting better and better on my Honda
03:21give me a shot at these boys and he just got by both of them in the early laps of this race nice work Christian Craig
03:28here's the points as we race Craig and Tomac are tied at 35
03:36Webb and Roxxon right behind them
03:47whichever one of these guys wins this moto is basically going to win the overall
03:51yeah that pass was not only for the raceman but for the overall
03:54we'll have to keep our eye on Webb and Roxxon because if they make some moves they can put themselves in position too
04:00but if you're Christian Craig you can't worry about anybody but yourself right now which is what he is doing
04:05and he's doing a great job at it
04:07two amazing passes and now a little defense maybe because Eli Tomac has recovered
04:12well the one thing Tomac's not going to do is panic
04:15Eli Tomac will get himself in his rhythm and go after him
04:19and here's Webb with Roxxon right behind him those two running in sixth and seventh
04:24and they got a lot of laps you have to go so we'll see
04:30fitness is definitely going to come into play tonight these guys have all trained hard
04:34but they haven't ridden in this kind of heat and humidity in quite a while
04:37yeah 12 minutes isn't the issue as Roxxon gets by and that may have put him into the overall
04:42but it's the heat it's the humidity it's just draining of sweat all day
04:48looking at the championship standings as we're racing Roxxon leads it with 116
04:54Craig behind with 95 in second and there goes Roxxon inside of Savace
04:59couldn't complete the pass yet
05:03and I'm telling you right now can Roxxon case the triple so bad
05:07and as a racer when you land that hard on your feet
05:10it takes a moment for you to regroup and say hey am I okay am I okay
05:14it took him like five seconds and he was back on the attack
05:17which is what he's been all night long going back to sprint race number one
05:21I mean this guy is so fun to watch make passes
05:26and we're gonna have to see two big ones right here coming from Roxxon
05:29here's Orenda on the 20 and Savace
05:33Wow
05:35Roxxon struggling to get around
05:37and look in the small box
05:40and you see in the upper box
05:41Christian Craig and Tomek fighting
05:44and Craig gets to the lead
05:50Tomek hanging on in second
05:54Deegan is all over him and makes the pass
05:58Roxxon on the screen here
06:05fighting for fourth and here's the battle you're hearing everybody screaming about
06:10Deegan in front of Tomek
06:12that's second
06:14and in front of them is Christian Craig
06:16there's the gap between first and second and you see the gap from second to third
06:20Tomek didn't panic earlier but now he better
06:23because he's got Deegan and Craig pulling away and he's got Roxxon closing up
06:27absolutely
06:28and Ken Roxxon's passes put him in the position to win this overall
06:32but Hayden Deegan just passed Eli Tomek
06:36I mean again the generation gap this battle we've been hyping up
06:39we got it there as Christian Craig pulls away
06:42but Hayden Deegan through the whoops
06:45I'm telling you that is impressive for him on that 450
06:48just learning that bike
06:49gnarliest set of whoops I've seen in a long time
06:51just muscling through them
06:53what a run
06:57and here comes Webb on that number two
06:59and keep an eye on him because he could get into this overall
07:02without necessarily winning the race here
07:05in race number three
07:08as Deegan
07:09just continues to climb up three spots now
07:12in positions gained
07:14and Roxxon up eight
07:17even after casing the triple
07:20you know Ralph
07:22testing the temperament
07:24Deegan went down in race two
07:26okay
07:27to be able to bounce back from that
07:29twenty minutes what thirty minutes later
07:31and go and regroup
07:33and then make a pass on Eli Tomek
07:35that tells you a lot about his character
07:38his temperament
07:39his mentality
07:40this right here is proof of what he will be doing
07:43in this 450 class
07:44he is a dog
07:46and this is proof right here
07:49no doubt about it
07:50there is a bright bright future
07:52on a 450 in front of Hayden Deegan
07:56and it's really going to kick off in the summer of 2026
08:00when he races the outdoor championship in the United States
08:04on a 450 full time
08:07back to the 250 for Supercross in the U.S. in January
08:11and he'll get ready for a 450
08:13so maybe we'll get lucky Daniel
08:15where the next time we see Hayden Deegan on a 450 in a Supercross race
08:20will be another FIM World Supercross race in the fall of 2026
08:25which will be exciting as well
08:28you better be careful
08:29he may perform himself onto it sooner
08:31I mean this is
08:33look at these two
08:35I mean we're talking about two of the best
08:37in Supercross
08:38over the last ten years
08:40the amount of race wins
08:42Eli second on the list all time
08:44and Hayden just
08:46he's just one of them
08:47one of them
08:48and for Ken Roxxon
08:49if he can get Tomek here
08:50at the end of this one
08:51it would be huge for him
08:53as Tomek
08:54and Roxxon
08:56battling one more time here
08:58in FIM World Supercross competition in 2025
09:01Roxxon into the wubs
09:03here he comes
09:04he's got him
09:05that's a huge mental moment
09:07for Ken Roxxon to know he put it to the reigning world champ
