I got behind a lapper with a few laps to go and lost quite a bit of time and I came across that last lap and I said, 'you know what, I'm going to give it all I have right now.' It came down to the wire. I was able to catch him the last half of the lap. I almost had him in the bowl turn the previous lap, this time I held it open a little longer and it got pretty rough, the bike started to beat me up a bit, but I managed to hang on and run it in [on Roczen].
