USA easily has the best team on paper. This event seems to be a bit chaotic, though, so it should be interesting.

I think people are over looking Switzerland here! Would be a fine team to pick as a sleeper , expect them to be top 5 if not an outside bet for podium

depending on his fitness level I expect Tonus to do big things.
Top 5 shot for the swiss this year, next year they could go really big. Guillod gets better every race, Seewer is finally a full pro as he finished school a month or so ago, and Tonus racing for PC in 2015

Team Netherlands:
MX1 or OPEN - Marc de Reuver
MX1 or OPEN - Ceriel Klein Kromhof
MX2 - Glenn Coldenhoff

Hopefully Herlings will be back in time, but i doubt it. Tho if he is, then the team is a seious contender for the top 5!!!

I believe JH will be back in time for MXDN, even for the last GP if he has to gather some points to retain the title.

Strongest teams in my opinion....no particular order

Although Kegums can easily throw up surprises due to the terrain, the weather may make this very interesting, I believe this is the best GB team in a long time and am seriously expecting a very good result - prepare for an upset? maybe.
we could win it this year- Simpson hauls in the sand, both tommy and deano can beat anyone on their day.

Real shame that there are so many top riders not racing this year- musquin and pourcel have been the best 2 riders in the ama outdoors the last couple of rounds and they wont be there, along with the ama points leader in the premier class! none of the top 3 mx2 gp riders, no herlings, cairoli possibly racing mx2?

if cairoli does ride the 350 i would definitely not bet against him going 1-1. The italians dont have much of a chance of the team win this year so he may just want to have a battle with dungey/ tomac! although cairoli vs searle vs martin vs ferris would be interesting if they all ride 250fs!!!

alot of people are writing france off already? really? they have a really strong team even without musquin and pourcel. Paulin will be in with a shout of the win, both febvre and ferrandis can be top 3 easily.

Is it too late to change the team? maybe put musquin on a factory 350 in mx3 so you've got paulin mx1, musquin mx3 and anyone from the big group of top 250f riders they have in mx2?!!

i cant see herlings being able to ride- and even if he is he wont be anywhere near 100%. Broken femur is not a minor injury!!!

would have loved to see him there- you're right though i think with herlings coldenhoff and de reuver on a sand track they would have a great chance!!! The future is bright for holland though with pootjes looking like he will be the real deal. Possible future team of herlings, coldenhoff and pootjes will be winners soon!

same could be said for germany with the emergance of HSU- him, roczen and nagl could be a formiddable team in the future

im not writing France I off just see a more consistent performance elsewhere, normally I would back them and no doubt they are going to have a standout race as we all know Paulin will bring it but I just see crashes for some reason

go GB - lets hope Tommy is back to his old self on the 250

last time france sent a 'B' team they won! (namur 2001)

they've got a huge talentpool to choose from- personally i think that paulin is the only real automatic choice if everyone is fit. Frossard can beat anyone on his day, as can any of the 250f riders. Still a little off that musquin hasnt been picked but i wouldnt be surprised to see them win it with the team they have chosen.

Can they change the team now? you would think they might at least consider marvin after his results lately- tixier must feel a bit hard done by too!!!

i think tommy will be up there on the 250f- he's always up for it at the mxdn.

It will be a great event this year - the track at kegums is amazing! i think it will suit the americans more than the last 2 years where you have struggled with the difficult conditions

Herlings needs to have his pre-season injured shoulder done anyway so it's doubtful he waits until mxdn to do it, even if he rides in Mexico.

I will respectfully disagree that in 2014, Tommy or Dean will beat anyone on their day. I do agree that it SUCKS Musquin won't be there.

Team USA should win every year. The team picks its riders from a national American series that is on par with a multinational "World Championship" where all the best riders are divided into their individual teams.

CR MXGP and Metcalfe open? I don't agree with that. Don't get me wrong I love Chad but let's be real, the 24 is a beat outdoors. And I guess the French don't want to win this year. I would love to see 377 on a 450(I know he has ridden 450 before)

US looks very stron this year + ALOT of good riders from other countrys are injured or not going (roczen).

Funny how no one has mentioned France. I think they will podium, Paulin is hauling ass and so is the other two.
It really sucks that so many good riders are out. Sad

According to Motorcycling Australia

Brett Metcalfe chose to withdraw his nomination to compete at the MXoN this year due to other issues he needs to attend to around the time of the 2014 MXoN, MA were naturally very disappointed about the news but respect his call and hope he is in contention to represent us in the future!

Thats because most people (including certain journalists) like to think Pourcel and Musquin are the best riders France have. They're not overly familiar with Frossard or Ferrandis which obviously means they suck...

Leaving Musquin out is arguably the most conentious decision, but Ferrandis can hold his own. Choosing Frossard over Pourcel is like choosing Tomac over Canard, or vice versa.
