I say the Aussies have 2nd place covered for the MXDN's . Reed will beat Pourcel and Metty will beat Paulin yes Masquin will have Moss covered but the other 2 will bring it home for us. I can't see anyone other than the Ryan's beating Chad or Metty and yes that means AC or Pourcel

BRING IT ON

Can't argue with that.

Although, I think Matt will do better against Marvin than expected.

Aussies look good, so does France and GB. Will be a great weekend.

And if USA has a single slip up, Aussies or French could snag it right out from under us. I'm very interested and excited to see how this weekend pans out.

I would like to see Aussie win it.... but

I reckon these teams have them covered...

US 3-0
France 2-1
GB 2-1

But as we know, anything can happen.

Thanks, mate; however, is that because we're all top blokes and good riders or because AUS is just a different arrangement of the letters U S and A?

The qualifiers will be really interesting. I wonder if US will put in their traditional sub par performance in qualifying only to turn up on Sunday and get it right. It seems to happen every year.

Metty has Paulin covered? Have you seen how Paulin rides a 450......

Let the riding do the talking this weekend.

Hey.....remember Kong.....anything can / will happen in this sport! You guys have a really strong team this year , and I'm sure you guys will do very well! I am so pumped right now! I just found out I'll be able to actually watch the races now. I thought the whole thing was happening early tomorrow morning , but it's just the qualification rounds......the racing is early Sunday morning for me!! And I aint doing anything but sitting back and watching the race!!

Metty has been faster than reed the last couple races. IMO he will have paulin covered. But will reed have him covered.

Crush i'm an Aussie but to say he has the speed to beat Herling's,Wilson,Roczen,Baggett and Masquin is a fairly brave prediction. I would say even on his best day ever maybe 4th or 5th in his class

Even as a Team USA guy, how can you not want Reedy to do well. Hopefully the MXdN spirit will inspire him back to his midseason outdoor form, were he was the fastest guy on the track bar none. Is Honda still supporting him with a HRC fo-fiddy for the race?

I said it last year and was called a traitror, I'll say it again. I would not be one bit bummed if Australia beats us.Reed and Metty are Americans now for the most part anyway.

Anything can happen, 2 bad holeshots, a crash, or a complete mud race could change the scope of things. If all 4 teams get top 5 in the holeshot and no one crashes, I bet on Americans but anything can happen. That is what makes it an exciting race.

That, sir, is a scandalous statement. How dare you.

It's all about Dean Ferris. Paulin, Metty, Pourcel, Reed will all got top 5 scores in their motos so not many points gap. The difference will be how far back the MX2 rider is Musquin will get in the top 10 for sure and close to top 5. Not sure you can say that about Dean Ferris although I must say never seen him ride
