![]() ![]() I mean, I was ready to cook up a nasty battle at the end. But I mean, honestly, I was getting ready, I had that energy. So we got a little more work to do, but I mean, starts were dialed, although you could say it was a little gifted with Austin crashing, which again, you don't want to see that. Not 100 percent hole shot, but we came around that first turn almost first. So I'd say we got the starts pretty dialed. It bit me and so I went and worked on starts and nearly holeshot the main, came out second. Yeah, definitely Detroit obviously went a little south on the start. How important was it to have this win after Detroit? But yeah, I'd say we put an end to that thing and we're pushing forward from there You gotta have the mental strength to push through those things. I didn't get much of a preseason, I'll be honest, but it's in the mind. I mean, I'm on a little bit of the same road as McAdoo. And the nerves were there, you know, first win, but I've led some races so it wasn't too bad.ĭoes this put, should this put an end to any of the questions about your wrist, this performance tonight? He was consistent and upfront and not making a dumb move. So if you can be the guy to not make these mistakes, that puts you up front, right? I mean, Jet Lawrence came in, won, went to the 450 class quick. And that's honestly, which I think this 250 class lacks is consistency and not, and these guys make a lot of mistakes. Yeah, I mean, the nerves are always there the whole race, you know, it was just trying for me just to hit my marks every lap, like not make one mistake. Is it hard to maintain the focus? Are you feeling nerves in that moment? But, yeah, I'm down to have some battles at the end.Īfter Austin's crash, you all of a sudden find yourself with a seven second lead cruising towards your first main event win. But it was good to get my first win and, now we just got to do, it'd be nice to have a straight up battle towards the end. You know, my, my parents have raised me eating really healthy, and obviously and freaking me and my boys go do a little 10 mile runs. I think it's honestly the how healthy I eat. My, my fitness is surprisingly, honestly, pretty good. And unfortunately he had the incident and, yeah, I, I mean, I was ready to get, I was ready to get to a battle. Like, now I got a fight, we're almost to the end of this race. I'm gonna do my perfect laps and I saw five minutes to go on the clock, I think, roughly five minutes, and I was like, okay, I'm gonna put a charge on. So I was like, I'm just gonna stay where I'm at. Yeah, I could see and I looked on the clock about 10 minutes ago, we were dropping third and I seen Austin slowly start making mistakes and in my head, mentally, I was like, okay, he might be getting a little fatigued, he might get a little tired. Just take me through that battle a little bit. ![]() It looked like he made a run, then he started getting away a little bit. Run me through the main event a little bit because Austin kind of got away, you started reeling him back in. You wanted to have a good battle for this season and it just shows you how dangerous this sport is. I mean, obviously you hate to see what happens to Austin. Haiden Deegan: Yeah, definitely to be up to speed and have the endurance to win a supercross. So, is it surprising that it worked out this well, this quickly? We know coming in you maybe weren't 100 percent before it. Racer X: Haiden Deegan, first supercross win. Kellen Brauer talked to Haiden in the post-race media scrum to get some thoughts: There's much to talk about after this one, including Austin Forkner's ugly crash while leading, and Deegan's own bounce back from an off-season wrist injury and a brutal first-turn crash at the 250SX East Region opener in Detroit. With victories in the AMA Pro Motocross Championship and the SuperMotocross World Championship (SMX) last year, plus the SMX Championship, it seems strange to hear Haiden Deegan is yet to win a supercross race, but here were stood until Arlington, when he snagged a victory. ![]()
