Earlier I called the Supermini 2 battle at Ponca, between Dylan Graham and Hannah Jamison arguably the most exciting race of the day. They swapped positions, changed lines, countered each other’s moves, and turned five laps around Ponca into a high-speed chess match.
This race already passed the eye test, but if you know me. I had to nerd out a little. So I opened the Vurb Prospect App, started digging, and found out just how ridiculously close these two actually were.
By the Numbers
Graham ultimately got the win, and he also gets bragging rights for the fastest lap. He laid down a 1:38.261 on Lap 5, but Jamison was right there with a 1:38.458 on Lap 4.
Do the math and that’s just 0.197 seconds separating their best laps.
For some perspective, you probably spent more time reading this sentence than separated these two around an entire lap of Ponca.
And remember, these weren’t two riders circulating around the track with clean air. They were battling, changing lines and trying to outsmart each other while still putting down the two fastest laps in the class.
Jamison Led More, Graham Led When It Counted
Despite Graham taking the checkers, Jamison actually led more laps. Of course, there’s only one lap you absolutely have to lead. The last one.
That makes the finish even more interesting because this wasn’t Graham getting out front and managing a lead. Jamison controlled more than half of the race before Graham found the opening he needed late and made it count.
The Harder They Battled, The Faster They Got
When two riders spend a moto going after each other like this, you’d expect all that battling, line changing and defending to cost them time.
These two didn’t get the memo
Graham averaged 1:40.333 in the first half compared to 1:38.693 in the second half, an improvement of 1.640 seconds. Jamison went from a 1:40.721 first-half average to 1:39.621 in the second, getting 1.100 seconds faster.
They weren’t slowing each other down, they were making each other faster.
Enter Into The Prospect Rabbit Hole
This is where Prospect becomes super rad if you’re a moto nerd like me. Graham currently sits 6th in the 2026 rankings, while Jamison is ranked 115th. Graham has 111 career wins compared to Jamison’s 84, and he has raced 695 times compared to her 480.
Despite Graham having the edge in wins, Jamison actually has the higher career win percentage at 17.50% compared to Graham’s 15.97%.
Then there’s the history.
These two have seen plenty of each other before. At Ponca in 2025, Graham finished sixth overall in Mini Sr 2 with Jamison seventh. At Loretta Lynn’s this summer, Graham finished fifth in Mini Sr 2, while Jamison had a much tougher week and finished 31st.
Fast-forward to Ponca 2026, and they just went 1-2 in Supermini 2, separated by fractions of a second in outright speed.
And we still have another moto to go.
Prospect Drops the Mic, Now Drop the Gate
A traditional results sheet tells you Graham finished first and Jamison finished second.
Cool. But that barely scratches the surface of what actually happened.
With Prospect, you can see that Jamison led more laps, Graham had the fastest lap by just 0.197 seconds, both riders actually got faster as the battle intensified, and then go even deeper into their rankings, career stats, win percentages and history against each other.
That’s what makes the Vurb Prospect App so rad. It doesn’t just tell you simply where a rider finished. It gives you the tools to start figuring out how they got there. You can watch a race, think you just witnessed something special, then jump into Prospect and find more layers of the story hiding inside the numbers.
