| 0:00.0 | All right, Andrew Short, Phoenix. Hey, I thought it was pretty good race. |
| 0:03.0 | Talk to me about it. |
| 0:04.0 | Yeah, it was a step in the right direction. |
| 0:06.0 | It was positive for me and for KTM and Red Bull. |
| 0:10.0 | It seemed like, you know, last weekend was a big struggle. |
| 0:13.0 | And a lot of it was me with how I was riding the bike. |
