00:00positions a last chance qualifier and then we put the best from the east and the west
00:04together again one last time and speaking of the best there is cole davies he wrapped up his very
00:10first monster energy ama 250 east supercross championship at the last round for the east
00:16riders in philadelphia just an incredible championship for cole somewhat expected he is a
00:23fine athlete and can ride the motors wheels off this thing everybody wants to finish the supercross
00:29season the best way possible let's get things going here in utah 250 east good start from landon
00:36gordon nicely done and then here comes nick romano romano's in the mix and then his teammate set
00:42hammock is there two kawasaki's in the top three ah great start for like you said landing gordon and
00:50nick romano think about this romano was a fill-in rider and he has done a fantastic job here in
00:58this
00:58season east coast division 250 landon gordon had an incredible rookie debut getting on the podium
01:08he took a rough crash yesterday so this is a great start for him and then seth hammocker you talk
01:13about
01:13seth hammocker bam championship contender just come up a little bit short so this is an opportunity for
01:19some redemption here tonight yeah great opportunity for him and again last time we kind of seen land
01:24gordon having that podium that breakout ride but you can tell he looks a little bit more comfortable
01:28he's got nick behind him you can tell they put a little bit of water on this racetrack and the
01:33shadows here in the wolves these guys got to be careful early in this race but kind of a main
01:38event
01:38here it's been for the three races that landon gordon has done it's kind of been a mixed bag first
01:43the
01:44first one did not work out so well then he put it on the podium yeah in just his second
01:48professional
01:48race the teenager did a spectacular job but then the most recent round it went a little sideways for
01:53him so good to see him up front and ricky to your point especially after that hard fall yesterday yeah
01:58i mean we were down here these guys had an opportunity to ride the track for press and
02:02man did he take a gnarly crash over the handlebars got piled drove into the ground and i was wondering
02:09if he's going to suit up and i saw him out here earlier this morning for qualifying practice and
02:14this track is very slick right now like james said they did some work put some water down and
02:19pretty impressive what landon gordon's been able to do
02:24interesting to watch how this heat race plays out to see how land is starting to get away from
02:28these guys so as the day goes on gets into that night time all these guys that's coming up they
02:34got
02:34to make sure they pay attention as seph gets around his teammate in that sand section a little while but
02:39he made the pass i like what you talked about too on that first lap this is basically like a
02:44heat
02:44or a main event with this east-west showdown you have the east division going first west division
02:50going second so this is all the heat in the six minutes plus one lap race set hammock aboard the
02:5610
02:56there the monster energy pro circuit kawasaki was the fast qualifier and has looked good all day here
03:02in salt lake city here comes the champ looming large in the background the 37 of cole davies look at
03:08cole going to the outside right there electing to take a different line get out of the roofs
03:14maybe because that inside james is a little slick from the water that the smx track crew have put
03:18down yeah earlier when you went outside they were trying to triple we know how strong cole's been
03:23through the whoops as he gets up the inside of nick kind of it plotting his pass off nice good
03:28nice pass by the number 37 yeah got a good run out of the corners and definitely cole davies has
03:35been
03:35the class of the field in the whoops all season long along with the rest of the track and it's
03:40incredible to watch how fast he could go especially when you consider his statue's got beautiful
03:45technique here comes set hammocker challenging and pressuring for the lead of this race two minutes
03:5040 left on the clock plus a lap in the east division heat west is coming up right next james
03:56i love the
03:57composure that oh landon gordon has and he's getting some heat from set hammocker here he's just riding his lap
04:08is it just a matter of time seemingly so as they hit the whoops one more time who's better through
04:13here look at set hammocker on that outside line into the sand they jump oh landon gordon took that line
04:20away from him did you see how landon did go all the way to the tough blocks that was great
04:25defensive
04:25riding hey there's a qr code on your screen there quick reminder to scan it for your chance to win
04:31an
04:31insta 360 camera it's fast it's easy scan now to enter and good luck yeah seth has been strong all
04:37day it's probably the best i've seen him more comfortable all year as you can see some of these
04:42180s they leave these corners really open he could run it in there but i think seth to play it
04:47off jt
04:48yeah and for seth as he tries to make a move up the inside whoa go ahead jt why i
04:55just think this is
04:56the perfect kind of racetrack for seth hammocker the track's perfect the whoops have not broken down
05:00at all yet so he's got to make the most of the moment because i think as the whoops start
05:04to
05:05deteriorate a guy like cole davies is going to make the most of you see seth making a move there
05:09the whoops himself that he won it's been difficult to get by landon gordon but finally seth hammocker
05:14does quick look around to see where the youngster is and then here comes his teammate the two monster
05:19energy star yamaha racers are together now yeah nice attempt by cole davies wasn't able to get it done
05:25but look at the gap that the 10 of hammockers put on these guys just from getting into the lead
05:31but
05:31again great job from landon gordon racing hard and clean and this is really the most realistic
05:37racetrack he's been on since his rookie debut because he's been in the mud ever since yeah absolutely
05:43he's going to have a realistic pass and get passed by his teammate but that's right still a good
05:48performance you can see seth has already gotten away from him so kind of know you got to make that
05:54pass
05:54happen let's see if he can close up on a number 10 out front two wonderful graduates of the smx
05:59next
05:59program the 18 year old cole davies gets ahead of the 19 year old landon gordon and he sets sail
06:05up to
06:06seth hammocker will he have enough time to catch him 1.6 seconds is the margin first to second yeah
06:11it's
06:11going to be a lot of fun to see right here just what cole is able to do right really
06:16well now this track
06:17looks like it's starting to get worked in the lines are becoming established and you'll be able to ride
06:22a bit more aggressive now than those first couple laps i believe james yeah cole makes a big mistake
06:28right there will james said hamica was talking to me today about how the pressure's been off for a
06:34couple of rounds for him since he sort of felt like he was out of the championship pump day so
06:38you
06:38know i've been able to ride a little bit more freely unfortunately for him he's up against cole
06:43babies who's now got his championship already wrapped up and the version of cole that i saw in the paddock
06:49today talking to friends and family uh was a version that i haven't seen all year just completely
06:53relaxed and laughing two guys in his sort of best position possible there to just be able to relax
06:59and go after this win tonight will talks about family there's even more family that have made the
07:03trip over from new zealand for davies because he's had his mum and dad here and his grandfather who is
07:08still here by the way and his uncle has joined the family clan as well to cheer on this youngster
07:14and
07:14they're really enjoying watching him ride in person long way from home by the way if you have a look
07:20down the order daxton bennick is a distant 12 which is highly unusual for the rockstar energy factory
07:29huskvana rider who is third in the championship point well it is and he was 11th on the first lap
07:34so
07:35that's shocking he must have went down for sure because how well he's been doing all season long again
07:41third in the championship that's uh definitely out of pocket if he don't make some moves he's headed to
07:47the last chance final lap for seth hamica he's won three heats make it four in this 2026 season and
07:55a really nice way to get this final east-west showdown underway as he beats the man who beat him
08:01to the title luke cloud on the 101 prmx kawasaki holds down the ninth and final position transfer
08:08position but there's a mad scramble going on because gavin towers is starting to zoom in watch
08:13this towers for the inside cloud holds the outside they race to the line luke cloud gets it i don't
08:20know about you ricky but i've probably been a little more aggressive on that
