00:00Time to do it, here in Salt Lake City, it's Hayden Deegan's last ride on a 250, does he get
00:07the whole shot, he's squeezed on the inside, you betcha he gets it.
00:11Look at all those Monster Energy Star Racing Yamaha, it's Anstey Deegan, Anstey goes to the inside for the move,
00:18nice, that's a great thing about being on that right hand side on that short shoot after the start.
00:25Teammates at it at the front, one, two and three, Anstey Deegan Davies.
00:30Let's see if Hayden scrubs this thing, as you see Max took a look up the inside, he's had that
00:35vision before, but if anybody was going to challenge Hayden Deegan, you had to get in front of him, this
00:39is what they needed to do, they saw how quickly he ran away from it on the heat race, you
00:44got Cole Davie, looks like he wants to take a shot as well.
00:47I talked about this race track racing tight, the reason that I say that, because a lot of these lanes
00:52are very short, so it's very hard to move around, so it's kind of, you feel trapped when you're in
00:58this position, especially if you're Hayden Deegan, where you have your teammate in front of you, you got Cole Davies
01:03all up behind you, see Hayden looking over to the, over his shoulder, that's why.
01:09Here comes Davies, he's a specialist in the whoops, and you know that he would desperately want to beat Hayden
01:16Deegan in this finals East West showdown of the year, Davies will stay on a 250 next year, Deegan goes
01:22up in just a matter of weeks to the 450 class for pro motocross, as he works on his teammate
01:28Max Anstey, the winner of the season opener in Anaheim.
01:31Yeah, you talk about Hayden, how much he's grown as a rider, in that whoops section, Cole had a better
01:37run to him, but Hayden got back, made that thing work, and Cole couldn't do anything, he's trying to put
01:42that pressure on Max, I feel like, if I'm Hayden, if I can get around him, I might be able
01:46to get away, but Max is doing a great job, Ricky.
01:48I was going to say, James, this guy, number one, isn't going to wait long, and he's going to want
01:54to make the move.
01:55There it is, Deegan to the front.
01:57Later.
02:00The crowd tells you what they think about that.
02:02Yeah, it's going to be really important, James, as you know, I believe, for Cole to get by his teammate,
02:09Max Anstey, or it's going to be super hard to catch back up to the rear wheel of Deegan.
02:15I agree with you, 100%.
02:17It's good to see Max back up here, JT.
02:21That's exactly what I was thinking, James.
02:22Remember, this is the guy that won the opening round in a championship that has been absolutely dominated by your
02:29defending champ, Hayden Deegan, but this is how he started.
02:32It would be a great way for Max Anstey to end this season on the podium.
02:35He's been through everything this year, including a removed appendix, and this will be a bright spot on the season.
02:41Got his teammate, Cole Davies, right behind him, and Davies is trying desperately to get by the British rider so
02:48he can try and go with Hayden Deegan.
02:50It's teammates 1, 2, and 3, 4, 5, and 6 with McAdoo, Hamaka, and Kitchen, the Kawasaki guys, running 4th,
02:585th, and 6th.
02:59Yeah, Seth has any chance.
03:01He needs to get around his teammate and try to get up there.
03:04We know how he's been the fastest in your qualifying, had a great heat race, but all that can be
03:09left along.
03:10He didn't get the best to start, and the toughest guys are in front of him.
03:13Yeah, he did, and again, a little bit of redemption for this season would be huge.
03:18Oh, look at the top of your screen.
03:21Cole Davies getting into the second spot.
03:24These next couple acts are going to be a lot of fun to see if he can reel him in.
03:27We'll have ourselves a battle for the lead.
03:29Yeah, and it's a different position for Cole.
03:32He hasn't normally Hayden's behind him, stalking him, so maybe this will help him loosen up.
03:37If he can keep this gap closed, then maybe as Hayden's starting to jump through to Wolf right there,
03:41Cole can close that gap.
03:45Keep monitoring that.
03:46It's 2.1 seconds as we watch Cameron McAdoo and teammate Seth Hamaka
03:51aboard their Monster Energy Pro Circuit Kawasaki's.
03:53This is the fight for four.
03:54Yeah, Hamaka needs to make the move on his teammate right here.
03:59He's losing some valuable time, and it goes so fast, and that's the difficult part right here.
04:04If it wasn't his teammate, he probably would have made the move by now.
04:08Yeah, but Cameron's doing really good.
04:11He's really strong in the whoops as well, so Seth is probably going to have to get him before,
04:16because I don't think you'll be able to get him unless Cameron makes a mistake through the whoops.
04:19Yeah, you're going to have to try to make a move up one of these 180 corners.
04:24McAdoo, who missed two races through injury recently, came back at the last West Division round in Denver last weekend.
04:32Good to see him back, and good to see him in this form.
04:35He's down!
04:36McAdoo down hard!
04:37Oh, no, the Hamaker's down as well!
04:41Oh, my goodness!
04:42Hamaker goes down!
04:43Oh, the guys, man, they went rough between them.
04:46Oh, what a tough blow.
04:49Oh, that is uncanny.
04:53The two teammates who are having a brilliant race together come down four whoops apart.
04:58Yeah, a lot just happened in the whoops, because I heard the crowd, and you look at our gap.
05:02Uh-oh.
05:02I think Hayden made a mistake, and those whoops allowed Cole Davies to close up.
05:06That's what I think the crowd was reacting for, or to, rather, right before the PC guys went down,
05:13Pro Circuit guys, McAdoo and Hamaker, get the line right there.
05:17Oh, Cole comes up short.
05:20That stops his momentum a little bit.
05:22Let's see this passage through the whoops.
05:24Kawasaki guys are off to the side.
05:26All right, this may very well be game on.
05:30It's Cole Davies' last chance to take a shot, and he almost does!
05:35Remember Denver last year?
05:37Yeah, I was just about to bring that up, and, you know, I think at this point,
05:40this is where the experience comes in with Hayden.
05:42Now he realizes Cole is here.
05:44He's going to have to race this guy.
05:46Maybe you kind of let him go by, but that was a pretty bold move by Cole.
05:50This is going to be the, uh, this is where the games are going to start being played right here.
05:54You guys are in for an absolute treat right now, and what the strategy is going to be,
05:59it's going to be a lot of fun to watch it play out, but Cole very fast in the whoops.
06:03Now he went to the left side.
06:04Let's see if Hayden is able to anticipate that and block that side of the whoops.
06:11Yeah.
06:11Bingo.
06:12Here we go.
06:14The whoops specialist goes to the front.
06:17There we go.
06:17Deegan comes back through the sand.
06:19Blocks his teammate.
06:20Listen to this crowd.
06:22It is on.
06:24And the games have begun.
06:27I told you it was coming just around the corner.
06:31Hayden looking back.
06:3337, James.
06:34He just needs to stay strong, not give up, not get flustered by what's going on,
06:38but he is going against, I feel is one of the best to have ever done it and play these
06:43type of games.
06:44Oh, yeah.
06:44You're playing in his wheelhouse right now.
06:46He's probably getting loosened up, like, at that point, but as you were just saying,
06:50hey, Deegan, that, just this race craft to go down that section in the whoops.
06:53You know, Cole?
06:54Cole switched up the line.
06:57Cole is a faster rider right now.
06:59Here we go.
06:59Watch Davies.
07:00He's working the lines.
07:02He's trying to set Deegan up.
07:03Next passage through the whoops.
07:06Here we go again.
07:07The next round.
07:09Inside Deegan.
07:10Switches back.
07:11Davies switches back.
07:12They're side-by-side momentarily.
07:14Yeah, that was good.
07:16I was thinking, hey, at that moment, I would have done what exactly what he did.
07:19I'll go down the middle, make Cole, like, decide which way he's going to go.
07:23This is the best 250 race of the year.
07:26This is what we've all wanted to see.
07:28Everybody is getting this.
07:30And I tell you what, this is an incredible ride by both of these guys,
07:33but especially Cole Davies, because this hasn't been the case.
07:38Gotcha.
07:39Hits in.
07:39He says, that's Denver payback a year later.
07:43Uh-oh.
07:44Uh-oh.
07:46I love it.
07:47And now, what's Deegan's got right here?
07:49You know that he wants to win this race.
07:52He's been talking about how many races he's won or should have won.
07:56I tell you what, Cole, you better run, baby.
07:59You better run.
08:00He's going to be sitting in the cheap seats eating hot dogs with the fans.
08:04With all this going on, I need to remind you to stock up on Monster Energy drinks at Smith's.
08:10There's plenty of energy aboard that Monster Energy Yamaha of Cole Davies,
08:15and the fans love it.
08:18Yeah, Hayden.
08:21How about that, Will?
08:24Guys, I'm just thinking back to the numerous amount of times that the East West showdowns
08:29that I have asked Cole Davies,
08:32what's your motivation to beat Hayden Deegan?
08:34And he'll just kind of give you the look, like he knows,
08:37but then he'll give you the answer that he's supposed to give,
08:40that is my focus is on my title.
08:42Well, that's gone.
08:43He's got the title.
08:45Gloves are off.
08:45And that look that he gave every time I asked that question,
08:49I think we're seeing the answer right here, JT.
08:51We might be, but, Will, I'm going to take you back to Seattle
08:54when Levi Kitchen made this similar type of move on Hayden Deegan,
08:59and Hayden Deegan showed he is the fittest guy in this class by a long shot.
09:03You saw him that last lap.
09:05He reverted back to blitzing, which shows you he is here for this fight.
09:08I'm telling you right now, with 5 minutes and 54 seconds left,
09:12Hayden Deegan is far from done.
09:13Yeah, well, Hayden Deegan was faster on the last lap by 3 tenths,
09:17and he saw what Cole is doing through the whoops, James.
09:20I know you noticed that.
09:22Check out this replay.
09:23Oh, yeah, no, he comes up here.
09:24Hayden thought he had Cole gives a little bump.
09:27Now, I think it probably got a little closer to you when he slid in there,
09:29but he went in there for the move.
09:31I would have to say he probably needed to finish the job at that point,
09:34but look at the live shot at the bottom.
09:36Hayden Deegan has stepped it up.
09:38Get ready for the next round.
09:41Remember when they raced each other in the showdown in St. Louis?
09:43I mean, Hayden was able to match his whoop speed.
09:47It's going to come down to fitness as well right here.
09:51You've got Laffers in play.
09:53Traffic ahead.
09:54Gavin Towers is the first one they come across,
09:56looking for a clear passage through.
09:58No worries there for Cole Davies.
10:00Yeah, I think the difficult part for Cole is not only obviously Hayden's there,
10:03but you'll probably start seeing him look back because now he's gotten into Hayden.
10:08and now the gloves are off.
10:09Hayden probably want to get it back in.
10:11If I'm Hayden Deegan, I would do exactly that.
10:13I would run it in.
10:14Even if you know you can't pass, just get him nervous.
10:16Oh, boy.
10:17And you can start to see it.
10:18Here we go.
10:19And there's the payback, and it does not work out.
10:22It does not go Deegan's way.
10:25Oh, now he's getting...
10:26Wow.
10:27And...
10:28You think...
10:28He's still there.
10:30This race ain't over, people.
10:31Don't tune the channel.
10:32This race ain't over.
10:34Go warm up some more popcorn because it's on right now.
10:37We're getting into Lappers.
10:39Four and a half minutes plus a lap to go.
10:42Did you ever expect we'd see this?
10:45Deegan's dropped it in the sand.
10:49There you go.
10:51Now it is.
10:52Game over.
10:55Wow.
10:56Cole Davies waited a full year to get this payback on Hayden Deegan.
11:03And this is that second fall of Deegs.
11:07Down it goes in the sand.
11:08Yeah.
11:09I think he just grabbed a handful of throttle to get a good run out of that sand.
11:13And it slipped.
11:14I got down to the hard base.
11:15And it was all over but crying there.
11:18Yeah.
11:18I mean, what happened was Cole Davies, you know, him getting into it, the way Hayden's been going.
11:24For Cole to kind of come up here and kind of startle that, we knew.
11:28Cole was, and Hayden was too far behind to make that move, that initial move when he went to give
11:3337 the business.
11:35He should have been probably a half-bike closer.
11:38And that pass would have worked.
11:40But, yeah, so that was miscalculated.
11:43Cole Davies' biggest fan is his 102-year-old great-grandmother who watches in New Zealand.
11:49I wonder what she thought about all of that.
11:57Oh, the bottom of the screen.
12:01So race control, we've just learned that they're checking out this pass.
12:05Come on, let them race.
12:07Yeah, let it.
12:08At this stage.
12:11It's the playoffs, baby.
12:12Let them go at this point.
12:13I think both those guys understand.
12:17Yeah, we'll see.
12:20How about this race?
12:22This has been epic.
12:26Is this a little warm-up for the 450 championship decider?
12:30Or is this the main event?
12:32Wow.
12:33Yeah.
12:34We got a little quieter right here.
12:35We're all just sitting here watching these battles.
12:38We've got these two guys, second and third.
12:40I mean, we've had some wild 250 races here.
12:43Go back to the championship last year with Vial.
12:46Yeah.
12:47And Hamaker.
12:50Right?
12:50And then Hampshire.
12:52I mean, there's always some drama here.
12:54And incredible ride.
12:57Pretty good if Max Anstey can hang in there.
12:59That would be his third podium of the year.
13:01It would be a nice way to bookend the season with a win and a podium in A1 and here
13:06in Salt Lake City.
13:11Yeah, it looks good for these guys.
13:12So got a pretty big gap, almost 10 seconds max, over Hague Deegan.
13:17Ken Robson is taking one step closer towards being a 450 Supercross champion for the first time in his career
13:28as he heads out.
13:48James, you and I were talking about it earlier today and about Kitchen and how well he rode last week
13:55in Denver and how well he's doing right now.
13:58And he hasn't even been riding that much.
14:01He hasn't been able to.
14:02And that's a crazy thing.
14:03It's almost like at the beginning of the season when he's doing all the training, he's done better with less
14:09riding during the week.
14:10It's crazy.
14:11But like you said, the pressure, there's no pressure left.
14:13Yeah, there's no pressure, but also it shows you how talented Levi is.
14:18And I think here at Salt Lake and Denver, the way to track start, it really suits his skills.
14:23But nonetheless, the way to end the season compared to how the middle was going for him, I'm sure he's
14:29kind of happy about that.
14:31Yeah, to be his fifth podium of the year, really strong one.
14:35And that solidifies second in the championship behind Hayden Deegan.
14:38Here's the 250 East Division champion, the race leader, to end the season on a high.
14:43Just 20 seconds plus a lap to go for Cole Davies.
14:45Yeah, it's only going to be one more lap when he gets by.
14:50Yeah.
14:55Hayden Deegan is back in fourth place, 14 seconds behind his teammate.
15:00And I'm sure you won't be surprised to hear this, but race control did review that pass and no further
15:06action taken.
15:07Just good, hard racing.
15:10Yeah, really, what a great race by both of those guys.
15:13I mean, even with Hayden, it just shows you how much he wants to win.
15:16This championship's locked up, got everything.
15:19He could have easily just, you know, all right, Cole's on it, but not Hayden Deegan.
15:24Look, some of the line switches, the race craft that he employed to defend from and then respond to Davies.
15:34Those sequence of laps, they were unbelievable.
15:38Yeah, I mean, it shows you, but also just as impressed by this guy.
15:42This is what we thought we would see when those two, how good Cole was riding, but at the same
15:46time, really let him have it today.
15:48And the composure, he's always had really good composure while racing in the heat of the battle, this guy right
15:54here.
15:54It's very impressive at a young age.
15:55So, unfortunately, the season is going to be bookended for Hayden Deegan with non-podium results, but not for this
16:03man here.
16:04Cole Davies wins in Salt Lake City to end the Supercross season on a massive high.
16:11Levi Kitchen comes across second.
16:14Max Anstey will be on the podium.
16:15No podium for Danger Boy, but he goes out of his 250 career.
16:22The champ, back-to-back 250 West Supercross champion, and his younger teammate, Cole Davies.
16:30What a ride.
16:32Yeah.
16:33Yeah.
