Earlier in the season he said he will not be using a 350 anymore.
450 only.

He's not sure if He's ready yet. If a problem with hin arm comes up he will probably just quit the race.
That's also why he doesnt race the mxdn. You cant just quit a race there...

He goes real good at Glen Helen. It's worth the price of admission to see this legend race a dirt bike.

My uninformed prediction: On the overall podium.

Could 40 American riders show up and end up taking most of the starting gates from the regulars?

No.

Though , it would be nice to see them try. I'm sure the cost of entry is very much lower than a normal GP - just as it was in '10 & '11.

This time, at least, there are a reasonable amount of good US riders having a go. I do hope some spectators turn up.

Cairoli - a man of honour and commitment to his sport - an Italian that is the polar opposite of Luongo. And, indeed a few riders. From all reports, He genuinely loves his sport. I do hope he doesn't aggravate his injuries.

5-4 I think if he genuinely thought his arm wouldn't be okay he wouldn't even try. He's done a bit of riding so he'll know what kind of condition he's in. I think it'll be a tough ask to podium after to so long out, but never rule out Cairoli

I hope Tony does well at Glen Helen. He's always been a class act, consumate professional & a lover of the sport. You sure can't disregard the eight world titles he's been able to put together! If he's feeling it, and isn't hindered by his recent injury too much, I think he's got a chance at a podium if not the overall win.

I'll agree with that. It's always good seeing Tony ride, and it makes the race that much better.

He'll be only half the racer he usually would be at this point. It's not like he'll be gunning for wins. Slow down little one, everyone already know's you're going to the races, you made It loud and clear more than once.

Denmark.

You got to see one of our "never was" guys who runs an eBay graphics company win your national championship. Be happy.

I was at the Czech GP and by that time RV and Cairoli were out and I thought, well at least Herlings will be there. When he crashed at the last minute and was out too, I was very disappointed, but Febvre got a new fan that day.

Anyways.. I hope 222 podiums in Glen helen.

Honouring contracts,making the trip to Mexico and onwards,I'm pretty sure he'll race if everything holds up ok judging by the past,he digs his fans and never usually fails to dissappoint,and gets a lot of respect accordingly,and probably more now from both sides of the pond

Best of luck,he gave a valiant and brave attempt at defending his title this year,bring on everyone fully fit for 2016 Smile
