There isn't a more deserving dude than Marvin. Always humble and never comes off as an ass. Stoked he is finding success on the big bike.

Out of nowhere..

I think the track suited him a bit and that helped but shit.. Kinda leap frogged 5-6 dudes I mighta had ahead of him after watching last couple weeks. Begs to ask if he keeps getting better where he will be.

I think podiums is exactly where a healthy 100% Marvin should be at, the slow start has been because the hand injury!

The broadcast mentioned that they seemed to have all hands on deck trying to get him more comfortable on the bike. I hope it's a consistent improvement and not a one off good race for him.

I thought it was funny after the race, Dungey looked more fired up for Musquin than Musquin looked. Haha.

Its always great to see your friend's hard work pay off. Dunge is in the trenches with Marv training week in and week out. All Dunge being pumped about it shows is that A. he's a great teammate and B. He's not worried about Marv being faster than him.

I wonder if Dungey's performance over the last few weeks gave him a little kick in the pants? Definitely a strong and deserving performance. Can't say I saw that one happening yet either. Figured maybe Daytona would be his breakthrough.

Loved seeing how super-pumped the Dunge was with Marvin's finish as well. So many post-checkered fist bumps I thought maybe Ryan got some Peick blood during the week.

I love Marvin. Really like him as a rider and a guy. BUT, I can honestly say that I am willing to bet he still thinks about his brother's injury every time he lines up. He is currently good enough for a podium, but he still does not look as good as he did last year in SX. I don't blame him, but he seems different.I know he had the injury, but I think he is kinda scared still.
