Did they confirm he's using springs toinght? From another thread he was said to still be using nitrogen forks.

Some traction, and the finish suddenly looks like 2012.

Where's all the people saying Tomac would be top 5? Not hating on the guy, I just can't believe so many people thought he would do that good right out of the gate.

Very surprised Tomac has been struggling on the big bike. The kid seems built for one. No doubt he will get it figured out though.

Same here dude, minus the pot stickers. I hate that Chiz could possibly be injured again!

The usual story, only as good as your last race. And when he did well on one at the monster cup, people thought he was gonna come out and blitz it. The supercross series is not the monster cup. He will get his head around it though.

Would be interesting to see what the rule books says about this. Wouldn't be surprised if it is vague as it has never happened before and Suzuki/Honda will protest it.

I disagree, if there was no red flag they wouldn't hav docked RV at all. They used the restart to flex their muscles where it wouldn't really affect the outcome. Truth!

Most years, a bad night for a title contender means 2nd or 3rd. This year it means 6th through 10th.
