He did it at TX too. BB and Tomac can run there fastest lap on 15. This is insane.

The GP fellas will pick up the endurance.

O/A????


1. Tomac
2. Barcia



What are the points? Honda boys just picked some up on BB. I thought BB we would be the first to win 2 O/A

Roczen went down, but got up with the lead still. Then Tomac hunted him down.

Kenny will win one, that's for certain!

I agree with Bagget and Tomac being on their own level at the end of the motos, but in my memory Tomac was struggling or at least not getting the results you would expect in the two years since he won hangtown, but this year he's been at the front or slicing through the pack every race, he's definetly got a lot faster this year.

It's a little more pressure being chased around new tracks by the top 250 riders in the world than it is cruising around your home circuits with Herlings 10 seconds back. He'll get that win soon!

I used the wrong terminology. I meant less volatility. The big 4 (KROC, Barcia, BB, Tomac) all are within a second of their fastest lap with BB or Tomac the fastest. The separation among the Big four is volatility. BB and Tomac can repeat their fastest lap on lap 14.


We had this chat on Round 2 between JS7 and RD5. It’s also killing Alessi vs Dungey.

He was leading by ten seconds over Tomac when he crashed....

Home circuits? there were two rounds in his country last year the rest where not his home circuits...

Its the Americans who are on their home circuits right now, and he he still right there with them. He is going to need to get that win soon though to keep in the championship hunt... thats three that have slipped away this year.


Maybe they should race the World Champ in the world championship for a fairer comparison....

Heat is exhaustion is a bitch. Not sure what happened to him last year. His rookie year at Hangtown he ran from CP377 and TC41 who are bonafide beasts
