ROCKSTAR ENERGY GASGAS FACTORY RACING’S CASEY COCHRAN P6 IN COLORADO.
BOTH COCHRAN AND RYDER D TRENDING IN POSITIVE DIRECTION THREE ROUNDS IN!
Rockstar Energy GASGAS Factory Racing’s Casey Cochran impressed with a sixth-place finish following Round 3 of the 2025 AMA Pro Motocross Championship at Thunder Valley on Saturday, which marks his best result of the 250MX season so far.
Equipped with the GASGAS MC 250F Factory Edition, Cochran powered to 13th position in the first 250MX moto of the day after an average launch off the gate, before ripping to a pivotal top-five start in Moto 2.
After running in fifth place during the opening stages, Casey would go on to capture a season-high P6 moto finish and sixth overall for the weekend. With his Colorado result, Cochran rises to 10th in the 250MX point standings after the opening three rounds.
Casey Cochran:“Overall, it was a good day in Colorado. We made some big improvements! Unfortunately, it was a bad start that cost me in the first moto, because I had to work through a lot of traffic in that one. I’m happy with my riding, had a good start in the second moto with a solid finish, so we’re looking forward to keeping this momentum going!”
250MX teammate DiFranceso finished the first Moto in P15, while he had to settle for a 13th-place result onboard his GASGAS MC 250F Factory Edition in Moto 2 after a first turn fall. Those finishes resulted in 14th overall for the round, as he too continues to rebuild from injury.
Ryder DiFrancesco:„My riding was better in Colorado, I just struggled to get off the gate and went down in the first turn of the second moto. I came back to 13th in that one, so it’s steps in the right direction again, and our goal has been to be up front by Southwick. That’s the plan!”
