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. Casey Cochran finishes sixth overall in 250MX 14th overall the end result for Ryder D at Thunder Valley Progression evident for both riders after three rounds! 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!” Next Race: June 14 – High Point, Pennsylvania Results 250MX Class – Thunder Valley National 1. Chance Hymas (Honda) 2. Haiden Deegan (Yamaha) 3. Levi Kitchen (Kawasaki) 4.

Casey Cochran races to 11th overall in 250MX Class 18th overall the end result for Ryder D at Hangtown National Cochran credited the holeshot in RED-hot start to Moto 2 Equipped with the GASGAS MC 250F Factory Edition, Cochran was fifth fastest on the 250MX combined qualifying timesheets, before racing at the front of the field during the opening stages of Moto 1. An eventual 12th-place finish was met with another P12 in Moto 2 after being credited the holeshot and again factoring toward the front with the leaders during the initial stages of the race. Continuing to charge back into shape after spending a lengthy time on the sidelines due to injury, exciting teenage prospect Cochran will shift his sights to Thunder Valley next weekend to further build upon his promising Hangtown performance delivered today. Casey Cochran: “Overall, Hangtown was a decent day. We showed really good speed all day with my qualifying and starts, we checked a lot of boxes there, but yeah, it was a hot one! I’m confident with my speed and abilities, so I’m feeling good for the rest of the season. We will keep working!” 250MX teammate DiFranceso finished the first moto with a P17 result after going down while running inside the top-five. Later, an 18th-place finish onboard his GASGAS MC 250F Factory Edition at the conclusion of the second race resulted in 18th overall for the day. Ryder DiFrancesco: "Difficult weekend for me at Hangtown. We showed great speed in Moto 1, and it was unfortunate to go down, but we’re still building as a team and will look forward to the next one.” Next Race: June 7 – Thunder Valley, Colorado Results 250MX Class – Hangtown National 1.
