00:00O primeiro dos três corrugos, 2.50m east, o Triple Crown está em frente aqui em Indy.
00:06Daxton Bennett está em um bom start.
00:09Benick está na Húsqueda.
00:12Aqui vem Joe Shimoda na Honda, 2ª lugar no momento.
00:16Man, eu te digo o que, Joe Shimoda está tendo um bom startos aqui
00:20em esses primeiros dois rounds de este campeonato.
00:24Mas Benick, ele foi rápido hoje, três semanas em um ano.
00:28E esse é o que queríamos ver, JT falou sobre o topo do show,
00:32o número 37, ele está na Húsqueda, para mim,
00:36há um monte de hype sobre esse talento, e ele tem que nos mostrar algo.
00:41Olha a rockstar Energy Factory Husqvarna.
00:44Benick está estávando, Shimoda estávando com os dois, com Cole Davies.
00:50Você quer saber o que a perfecta track é,
00:52o que a perfecta track é, o que a perfecta amount de traction, grip,
00:54você está vendo isso live, aqui no seu screen.
00:58These guys can lay on the power.
01:01A lot of lean angle in the corners,
01:04absolutamente flying right now.
01:06It gets no better than this.
01:07A 20-year-old from Morganton,
01:10North Carolina, leads the way
01:12through the whoops.
01:15And he's got the world champion chasing him down.
01:18Thrasher is in fourth.
01:20Jalit Swole's made a good start in fifth.
01:21Where is the Daytona winner in Seth Amica?
01:24Where is the championship leader?
01:26In Pierce Brown.
01:28Something's happened to him.
01:29He is plummeting.
01:30Brown is way at the back of the pack.
01:35That is not what he wanted at the beginning.
01:37Every single rider will tell you
01:39in a Triple Crown,
01:40you've got to get a good start
01:41and you've got to keep yourself towards the front.
01:44Well, and that's right.
01:45One of the keys to these Triple Crowns
01:47is having a first good race.
01:49Why?
01:50Because it kind of takes the pressure off.
01:52What you don't want to happen
01:53is your main competitors
01:54having a good first and second race.
01:56And you're playing catch-up the whole night.
01:59Oh, look at this pass by Davies
02:01up the inside.
02:03Perfect execution.
02:04We've often talked about
02:05just how fast Cole Davies is
02:07through those whoops section.
02:09Great pass by Joe Shimoda.
02:10Bottom box.
02:11Look for the red flag.
02:12There's your championship leader in Pierce Brown.
02:15Yeah.
02:15As he starts to make his way back.
02:17Well, and this is where you have to go.
02:19You can go to damage mode right now.
02:22Damage control.
02:23Pardon me.
02:23He's got to pass as many guys as possible.
02:28Got to be heads up riding too.
02:30A lot of these guys going in.
02:31You're going different lines.
02:34Got to predict where they're going to go
02:35and not have a collision.
02:37Daxton Benick leads the way.
02:38A lot of racing to come tonight.
02:40I want to tell you about SMX betting.

02:57And remember, every race is another chance
02:59to win big with super motocross.
03:03Watch as we come across the whoops.
03:05Now, this rhythm lane right here.
03:07Some riders doing different combinations.
03:10And it's going to get super ruddy
03:12as the second and third race
03:15approach the night.
03:17Tripling onto this tabletop.
03:19Now, the whoops right here.
03:20This is a passing option for Cole Davies
03:22if he can get a good run into the whoops.
03:24Here we go.
03:25Look at this.
03:26He's been blisteringly fast through here
03:28all day long.
03:29And he's done it beautifully.
03:30Yeah, watch the difference here
03:31in riding style.
03:32How you see Dax.
03:34He sits down before that jump.
03:35Cole stands up.
03:36When you stand up over that little jump
03:38onto the tabletop,
03:39it's actually a little bit faster.
03:41The bike doesn't compress as much
03:42and you're able to drive through that.
03:44The 18-year-old New Zealander
03:47leads the way.
03:49He was pretty confident in his statements
03:51after last weekend's Daytona event.
03:55He said, look, if I do what I know I can do,
03:58nobody can touch me.
04:00Yeah, absolutely.
04:01I mean, and again, no surprise.
04:03This is what we expected of him, Will.
04:06Yeah, Ricky, he's kind of changed a little bit
04:08his attitude in the sense that
04:10he wanted to win right from the get-go
04:12when we started the East rounds here in Arlington
04:15and he was pretty tough on himself
04:16when that didn't happen.
04:18And speaking to the team now,
04:19they said he's kind of learned to just
04:20shoulder that a little bit better.
04:22He's looking at the positives.
04:24That was bad starts in both of those two rounds
04:26but was able to work his way forward.
04:28And now he's able to let that go.
04:29We do have to remember, Ricky,
04:31that this is only a second year racing.
04:33So, so much for him still to learn.
04:35And as he cranks off these rounds here,
04:37he's figuring that out mentally
04:38as well as on the track.
04:39Wow, you're right.
04:39It is only his second year.
04:41But when you're the talent of him
04:43and you did so well your rookie year,
04:46these are the expectations
04:47that come along with that.
04:48This is a guy who went toe-to-toe,
04:51right, with Hayden Deegan.
04:53And then he went down
04:54in a confrontation with Deegan.
04:56But he is uber-talented.
04:58But there has been, to Will's point,
04:59that simmering frustration.
05:01Maybe up until now,
05:02this is going to take the cork
05:04out of the bottle a little bit.
05:05Right.
05:05Again, this is what we expected of him.
05:08And JT talked about it.
05:09And JT, I just got to ask,
05:10were you expecting this at the first race?
05:13I was, but hey,
05:15let's think about Hayden Deegan's first race
05:16at Tiffany West this year.
05:18Did not go to plan.
05:19He found it at race two.
05:21Maybe it's race three for Cole Davies.
05:23And Ricky, that entry speed,
05:25he talked about the whoops.
05:26Watch how fast he is entering these whoops.
05:28He is decimating everybody else at entry speed.
05:33You can see the number 10 there.
05:35Seth Hamaker trying to play catch up.
05:38Pierce coming up through the pack.
05:40He's worked his way up only to 15th.
05:43And the thing that's really hardly
05:44in these Triple Crown races
05:46is these guys only race 10 minutes plus one lap.
05:49It's almost like a heat race.
05:50So a lot of these riders
05:52have the fitness to go super hard
05:55for that short amount of time,
05:57which makes it more difficult to make passes.
05:59Trying to work his way by Liam Olof.
06:02Great to see Olof out there
06:06qualifying for the main event.
06:08Running up in the top 15.
06:12How about in the bottom box,
06:14this battle for third last week,
06:16Seth Hamaker.
06:17That was an awesome ride
06:18to get that Daytona win.
06:20So special in his career,
06:21but considering what had transpired
06:23earlier in the day
06:23where he had a very heavy fall,
06:25hurt his shoulder,
06:26bike was damaged,
06:28couldn't go on in qualifying,
06:29and then to bounce back that way.
06:31He also had like a little drop
06:32in his heat race as well.
06:34So as he works his way further forward,
06:36got a little squirrely there
06:37through the whoops.
06:38Yeah, the whoops are starting
06:39to get chewed up.
06:40These riders are going to struggle,
06:42and this is going to be a challenge.
06:44Keep your eye out.
06:45They're probably going,
06:45a lot of riders are probably
06:46going to start jumping those whoops.
06:48They were doing it earlier today
06:50in qualifying practice.
06:52Probably a little more consistent
06:53for them to do that
06:54rather than blitzing.
06:57Well.
06:59Ricky, a question about
07:00when they start jumping.
07:02I asked a few riders today,
07:04and they were like,
07:04it's going to be a combo
07:05between when you feel like
07:07it's getting uncomfortable
07:08to keep skimming,
07:10and also when the team
07:11is saying,
07:12hang on a second,
07:12this is not faster anymore,
07:14and then they have to communicate
07:15that to the mechanic
07:16who puts it on the pit board.
07:17So at what point here
07:18do they say,
07:19hang on a second,
07:19I've got to call this
07:20and go to the jump line
07:21as Joe makes the pass out?
07:22Yeah, that's a nice pass for Joe Shimoda
07:24to get by Dax,
07:25but I think as a rider,
07:27you know,
07:27you have to be super intuitive
07:28and you have to make that call.
07:30You have to be aware
07:32and see if Dax tries
07:33to defend the position.
07:34He doesn't.
07:35That was a great pass
07:36by Seth Hamaker
07:37to get by.
07:38Keep an eye out
07:39on those inside lines right there.
07:41You see that Dax tried
07:42to go sneak up in there,
07:43make the pass back by Seth.
07:45he's going to come up
07:46a little short.
07:48Meanwhile,
07:49Cole Davies has opened up
07:51a four-plus second advantage
07:53over Joe Shimoda
07:54and Seth Hamaker
07:56just two minutes left.
07:57You see Seth right there
07:58and even Joe,
07:59they weren't able to do
08:00that combination
08:01through the rhythm section
08:02and that is because
08:03these rhythm lanes
08:04are getting ruddy already
08:07and this track
08:08is going to be
08:09absolutely brutal
08:11as these races
08:12go on here tonight.
08:13A lot of fun to watch.
08:14Let's work our way
08:15further down the order
08:16and let's give a shout-out
08:18to Nate Thrasher,
08:19top five at the moment.
08:20Cody Shock is in sixth.
08:22Nice start.
08:23Jaleet Swal
08:23aboard the Triumph.
08:24How about Devin Simonson?
08:26He's from Terre Haute
08:27here in Indiana
08:28so this is a home race
08:30although he calls
08:30North Carolina home now
08:31and then you've got
08:33Cullen Park
08:33in the top ten.
08:35Seven Towers as well.
08:37Simonson doing
08:38a great job this year.
08:39I feel like this is
08:40a breakout year for him
08:41working with Chad Reed
08:42over at that club
08:44MX Yamaha team
08:45and you just have to believe
08:46that one of the reasons
08:48not only from the team
08:49perspective
08:49but that coaching
08:51and that knowledge
08:51that a champion
08:52like Chad Reed has.
08:54This has been quite the comeback.
08:56We watched Joe Shimoda
08:57by championship leader
08:58Piers Brown.
08:59He's almost breaking
09:00into the top ten
09:01after being last
09:02on the opening lap.
09:06Yeah, it's just
09:07it's so tough
09:08with these Triple Crowns
09:10like I was talking about.
09:11Man, if you have
09:12a first bad race
09:13or not up here
09:15with your competitors
09:16at that stage
09:16you're just playing
09:17catch up the rest
09:18of the night
09:20having to force
09:21certain situations
09:22or circumstances.
09:24Shimoda's a fan
09:25of the Triple Crown.
09:26He said, look
09:26you've got three chances
09:28to either keep doing
09:29what you've been doing
09:30or fix some mistakes
09:31or errors.
09:32Yeah, it really takes
09:35a lot of discipline
09:36and puts these riders
09:37in a situation.
09:38Uh-oh.
09:39That did not look good.
09:40No.
09:40Puts them in a situation
09:41to where they have
09:42to execute multiple times.
09:44JT, tell us more
09:45about Joe.
09:46I'm just watching
09:47the timing here.
09:48He's closed that gap
09:49down to under three seconds
09:50and in front of Cole Davies
09:52he has a lot of lap traffic
09:54so you can sit bigger
09:56with eight seconds
09:56plus a lap to go.
09:57Maybe Davies
09:58can manage this thing
09:59but Joe Shimoda's
09:59done a great job
10:00of digging into this gap.
10:02I'm just, I mean,
10:03I'm just super pumped
10:05for Joe.
10:05I mean, this is a rider
10:06who had a gnarly injury
10:07that he sustained
10:09in the offseason.
10:10I don't know
10:10that he was certain
10:11he was going to make it back.
10:12Obviously the goal was to
10:14but man, he comes out
10:15at Arlington
10:15has a great finish
10:17riding exceptionally well
10:20considering the circumstances
10:21and there he is.
10:22He's just been getting
10:23good starts
10:24and plugging away.
10:25That injury
10:26that Ricky was talking
10:27about was a broken neck
10:28and surgery
10:29did his recovery time
10:31rehab
10:31came back strong.
10:33He was on the set
10:33with Weijing myself
10:34at A1.
10:35Like he was still
10:36in recovery mode
10:37that recently
10:38so this has been
10:39very impressive.
10:41Well, like JT
10:42was talking about
10:43and Cole Davies
10:43coming up on lappers
10:44it's going to be difficult
10:45for some of these lappers
10:47to just move around
10:48and the reason
10:49it's going to be difficult
10:50is because how ruddy it is
10:52so they just basically
10:53have to stay married
10:54to their line.
10:55They can't go
10:55from one side
10:56of the track
10:56to the other
10:57because of that.
10:59Man, look at this guy.
11:00He is really pretty
11:02to watch ride
11:02that's for sure.
11:03Now he's got
11:05himself back
11:05to where he says
11:06he should be.
11:07This is more like
11:08the Cole Davies
11:09we expected to see
11:11at the beginning
11:12of this East Division
11:13Championship.
11:14Last run
11:15through the whoops.
11:16Yeah, his form
11:17is just very neutral
11:18on the bike
11:20and a very nice
11:21riding style.
11:23Been very purposeful
11:24today.
11:24I watched him
11:24in qualifying
11:25first time out.
11:26He waited
11:27for the whole field
11:28to go by
11:29and his own track
11:30space race win
11:32for Cole Davies.
11:33That's his fourth
11:34individual race win
11:36in Triple Crown format
11:38for his teammate
11:39from Monster Energy
11:40Star Yamaha.
11:41Pierce Brown
11:42had to work his way
11:43through the field
11:45trying to get
11:46as many positions
11:47as he can.
11:47This is all about
11:48the cumulative points
11:50on the night.
11:50You've got to try
11:51and finish as low
11:51as possible.
11:53Let's see if he goes
11:54for it.
11:55Oh, Jaleek isn't able
11:56to triple that section.
11:57They're going to play
11:58cat and mouse
12:00who's not going
12:01to be able
12:01to get the position.
12:02How about that?
12:03He got back
12:03into the top ten.
12:04So well done
12:05to Cole Davies.
12:06We'll hear from him
12:07in a moment.
12:07Good stuff.
12:08His teammate
12:09had to work hard.
