By lap six, he had worked his way into ninth! He then tracked-down opponents including Coty Schock, Cullin Park, Devin Simonson, and Drew Adams! His stamina was certainly on-point, and he would prove that he could endure the toughest circumstances imaginable in the Supercross genre. By lap fourteen, he had mad his way into fifth. The gap between he and Seth Hammaker was quite the distance, but the competitive mindset of the Yamaha athlete wasn't going to settle.

Seemingly forgetting about the crash that had just occurred, Cole charged forward when it mattered most...and ultimately exited the raceway with a fifth-place achievement.
