FunTranscript
00:00Didn't hate to see that. Oh
00:02Yeah explains why he didn't go through the whoops as fast that time too. I mean, I know he's behind base fluke, but
00:08One qualifying race left 450 class
00:12last chance qualifier top four get into the main
00:18Grant harland on the 23
00:22Gonna lead them
00:24Devin simonson one of his teammates right there hunter schlosser as well
00:28Oh harland almost threw it away
00:31Yeah, he got close to his teammate or the two ktm's back there
00:35But yeah, these guys at least the track is going to be a lot better than it wasn't at 250 lcq
00:39So I think a lot of these guys they can start racing, but still four minutes four and a half minutes to get it done
00:45Otherwise, you'll be going home early schlosser right there to hanging on. Oh, look at norin number 22
00:51He's in the money spot isn't able to make it but that was good
00:54that was that was good riding right there by norin, he could have absolutely punted schlosser and
01:02Yeah, held on to it for now he's gonna reattach with tristan lane
01:07Nicer than I would have been
01:09And then mitchell harrison back there as well looking to get in
01:13Pressure being applied to schlosser. Can he hold off door and again?
01:16yeah, freddie got that inside and you tell the track starting to
01:20uh
01:21Tacked up a little bit. So he was able to get that drive because that 250 class
01:24He wouldn't have been able to do that. Yeah, he did get he got whoa
01:29He got a little sideways right there. Yeah, mitchell harrison
01:32Facing that uh on off there
01:3613 different lcq winners for 50 classes here through 16 races so far
01:42Here's a big pass that harrison's trying to make on schlosser
01:46I'll set it down to will with one of our legendary racers hanging out out here will
01:50That's right. The legend that is marvin mouskat marvin. You train tom biel
01:55You know what it is to win. You've got the experience you understand the situation that he is in what we saw earlier
02:01There in the heat was perhaps not what we're expecting
02:04So what was the chat like you guys had a long time to talk things over?
02:07Yeah, true, but you know tom is a two-time world champion. So he knows how to deal with pressure
02:13We saw it in philadelphia a couple weeks ago
02:16Uh, he went all in and made up some points in the championship
02:19So he's gonna try his best again today and not ride a defensive
02:23He's gonna try to do his best and that's the best he can do if you ride defensive. That's where you start making mistakes
02:30Just have to be careful with the competition
02:34But yeah, it is what it is, you know, uh, you have to be smart. He's a very smart rider
02:39So, yeah i'm coming down right now to see uh the best options for the for the gate pick
02:43Unfortunately, he didn't have a good uh heat race
02:46But you know open stadium like that, uh day race
02:50Uh, they watered the track quite a bit. It was very slippery
02:53So not the best conditions, uh for him, but now the track is good. So it's going to be better for him
02:57Thanks so much. I appreciate your time and insight
03:01All right, yeah always good to hear from marv who's now a coach there for biel
03:06He's gonna have the bad gate pick in the main after the struggle in the heat as you watch this
03:11450 last chance qualifier battle
03:14Hold on to that mitchell harrison
03:16Can he track down?
03:18Freddy, noren
03:19He's gonna come down to those two. It's been this same gap for a couple laps now and harrison just can't reel it in
03:26But he might get a little help from lane
03:30Just in front of him if the 22
03:33Uh, freddy noren gets hung up by by lane and that'll uh, that'll help mitchell harrison's case
03:39late on the next level racing ktm
03:42Then you've got noren
03:44veteran out of sweden of the mad parts dot com
03:47Kawasaki
03:49And then closing in on him
03:51His harrison got a little bit closer now. Yeah, they're gonna have they got about two and a half more laps here
03:58Harrison on the part still up
04:01Kawasaki
04:02Oh, they're closing on lane. Yeah, I mean I and I think for harrison the the best thing that can happen is
04:08For uh, noren to close up on lane is slow that down and slow down the pace down so he can come up
04:14Because once he gets there, then you still have an opportunity to take a shot
04:18Adam as you can see they're starting to close up on
04:21Harrison starting to close up on noren, but still he's probably got what two more laps. Yeah
04:27They're gonna have two more laps to go and this is a tough spot for freddy noren because he's getting hung
04:32He's getting held up by lane just a little bit
04:35So he can advance forward then what that allows do harrison to catch up as you can see
04:40Here you see vl getting ready our 250 main event not too far away two titles
04:46Hanging in the balance here and the final mantra energy supercross race of the year to go back to this battle
04:52Harrison has done it. He's closed the gap on noren
04:56Oh, we got a four rider duel. They've caught simonson. They've caught lane. It is on
05:01Yeah, it's on you can tell freddy has more pace than this, but he is getting caught up behind lane and this is uh working
05:07great for mitchell, but he's
05:10Closer to him and I think once he does he's gonna have to take a shot because freddy is faster
05:15Yeah, but anything goes in lcq just like the championship
05:18Well, I think too of freddy freddy knows that he's in a position where he's got to make the move and he can't get held
05:24Up anymore. I think I think he pushes it and uh gets a little aggressive
05:29Get out of the danger zone
05:31Yeah, will doran make the pass on lane will lane make the pass on simonson. Grant harland's gone last lap
05:38Five riders battling for four spots in the main up the inside the 22 of doran. Oh nice pass
05:45Yeah, great perfect right clutch last lap. Oh, he's gonna get another one right here
05:50Trying to get simonson on the inside
05:53Lane comes back to on the 97
05:56Slips a little bit coming out of that corner where it's so wet
06:00Now the pressure now the pressure's on lane. Yeah
06:05Watch grant harland getting away harland so great last year even at this race
06:10But big off-season injuries and it's going to rebuild physically all season long
06:14It'll be good to see him in the main, but here comes the freight train
06:17It's going to be in these whoops right here if harrison wants to make it to the main event
06:22He's going to have to go for it. Just wide open through here. There he goes power run by harrison
06:33They get a big gap over the next rider who's going to be moran's moran sends it no way
06:40Even he doesn't understand how this happened. No way
06:43Kevin moran's never give up kids never give up. There it is
06:50Wow and check this out
06:52So harrison goes for it. He leans it over and there was nothing that lane could do
06:57He just runs into him innocent bystander racing situation
07:02Lane almost gets a go and moran's goes around the outside. He's like what?
07:07Thank you. Thank you very much
07:09Thank you very much kevin moran's on the last lap
07:15450 lcq never fails
07:19And uh, justin starling who I think was working a little bit with moran's this weekend
07:23Congratulates his buddy who sneaks into the main event
07:26As we get ready for the 250 main. There's levi kitchen
07:31He thinks running through his mind. It's tied tied in points
