Tommy is getting stronger and stronger. His speed is good as is his fitness. He will continue to improve all year and next year he will be top 3 with potential for some wins.

So may rumours around:

Van Horbeek very tight with Herlings so Husqvarna a possiblity.

CLS running out of money?

Tommy maybe prefers to ride full factory Kawasaki next year? rather than CLS.

Searle has a win in him this year, it's coming - he has been steadily increasing and doing it right. What contracts will come his way...
Searle has a win in him this year, it's coming - he has been steadily increasing and doing it right.

What contracts will come his way are anybody's guess right now but if CLS let him go after so long they are plain silly.

MXDN on that course will be wild, a bit more suited to the USA team in it's consistency so there should be some damn fine racing and no talk about the sand being too deep.

OR will they bring in 500 more sand trucks over the course of the next 15 months just to be sadistic Evil
Searle not anymore with CLS in 2014, it's Kawasaki Japan's decision, not CLS's...

Im seeing a bunch of twitter drama going on between Da Panda and Tommy?

‏@OntrackOffroad Seems that the CLS team have lodged a protest against the overtaking move from Desalle to take 3rd position and forced Searle to crash

Only two races ago the FIM sanctioned Searle for jumping on a yellow flag. Will they find in his favour? Video to be studied perhaps

The FIM have presented Desalle with an official written warning for his actions in the second moto with @tommysearle100

that is all from OTFR, Im not even gonna get into all the shit rides are saying Blink

I didnt see it so have no idea what went on.

@tommysearle100 Paybacks a biiitch next gp can't come soon enough!!

This could get good! Woohoo

Another awsome ride from Tommy, he's really gaining pace , a good start and he'll be challenging Cairoli. Dont know what lead to Deasalle wiping him out but Searle was definitely faster, maybe it was jealousy!

That was a B.S. move by Desalle. He did it 2 times in 2 laps. There was no question he was trying to hit him and take him down. Like TP199 said, if your gonna be dumb you better be tough.

It was an absolutely awesome race between those guys.

There were actually two instances where Clement used very "questionable" tactics on Tommy - the last imo being pretty much a blatant take out move. I could see it coming a mile off though. And then CD bizarrely complained about dirty riding on the podium! lol Laughing Pot meet kettle.

Maybe a festering from something else we didn't see in a previous moto??

But regardless, Tommy really is turning into the most exciting rider of this class. More than anyone else (bar Tony) he always seems to be on the move and doing something. You can see how much passion and desire there is to claw his way to the top in his riding. Needs better starts though. Sort of reminds me of Mike Larocco.

I want someone to beat Cairoly sooooo bad that sometimes I even forget that Clement is a douche and cheer for him.

Ooooohh that look-back after kind of says it all Angry

The thing is Desalle says himself that he's not too worried about that sort of thingin Moto 1,Cairoli hit a braking bump and couldn't slow down quick enough and hit Desalle unintentionally hard,passing him

Trouble is Desalle doesn't seem to let up,we've often seen him slow up looking for some cat and mouse block passing,next GP has some added spice though now Woohoo

there needs to be a hard charger award in the GP's. Fucks sake I think Searle has passed more people this year then the whole MX1 field combined!

WOW!.......Looks like I missed a good one. Seems the next GP could be a really good one to watch. Tommy seems to be gaining speed just about every race. Kind of an aggressive move by CD25 though.

Shame on FIM and youthstream for just issueing a warning because wasn't an accident in any way shape or form.

A block pass or take out in a turn is one thing but attempting to push a rider off the track on the face of a jump with a barrier at the top is a big NO NO!! Those tactics are punk bitch chicken shit and karma will bite Desalle in the ass without a doubt. If I'm Searle I don't wait for the next GP but find him asap and give him a good old beaten behind the wood shead. Bullshit!!

I can't remember anyone being disqualified in the GP's for dirty riding.

I don't think he should've been disqualified but I feel a fine or docked a couple positions would be justified punishment.

Searle has such a sick style. Balls out every corner every lap
7/14/2013 11:35am
"That is racing. He came quite close to me and I wanted to let him know that could do that also. It was aggressive", says a deluded Clement Desalle.

Doesn't he realize how ridiculous he sounds?

If it was his intention to demonstrate cringing immaturity he has succeeded. However if it was his intention to prove that he can beat Searle in a dual fair & square he has failed miserably and completely.

Save for Cairoli, Searle is the only rider in the class that's putting in some genuine effort into his riding and Desalle would be better advised to emulate Searle rather than decking him.

Would like to see the battle before he took him twice off the track.

Last year there where held a riders meeting after vorius insidentes, the last one with with Herlings taking out Tonus, where it was stated that the FIM would NOT tolerate that kind of riding.. After that it seems that the riders behaved the rest of the year. But i have never heard enyone be DQed for dirty riding. But maybe it is nessesery to state a example..

i think they both will settle this on track

It wasn't much of a battle. Searle came flying and was much faster. He impressed me this weekend.
