Really bugs how the commentators audio is so much louder than the bikes.
Not from where i was standing , just under the monster energy down hill double just the sounds out of the exhausts!
Felt really sorry for the 65s and 85s all that mud, strange they cleared it for mx2 then mx1 but not for any others!

Strange how Cairolis bike f*ckd up in the 2nd moto after he spent about a minute of full throttle valve bouncing celebration straight after the 1st moto win- mx title, wonder if it was the same bike?

Was gutted for Ferris. That crash in the second race was a bit bizarre, it happened right in front of me.

Thomas Covington also slid out on the corner in front me in the EMX250 race and Cairoli fell off in front of me in the second MX1 race, so maybe I was a bad omen?

Nah that was Gajser.

Quite similar to Chad Reed crash in Millville 2011 actually

Yeah Gajsers was pretty nasty! Poor kid hit the ground like a rag doll and was out for the count for quite a while.

I saw the bike bouncing along but i didn't see it go into the crowd, think my attention was drawn to the downed rider and the other riders trying to avoid him.

I presume you mean when Ferris crashed? I was standing by the bend at the top of the hill, right right where the KTM advertising started pretty much. Can't say I noticed a Golden tyre EZ up though, what was going on there?

Did anyone see the kid raivo dankers I think he was in emx65 def 65cc anyway kid really impressed me in the qualy race he was just hitting everything think he fell twice and still won the race with a massive margin .
