Maybe lacking a bit of race fitness/sharpness. Training is one thing, but like in any sport, it just doesn't compare to genuine competition.

Also, the whole factor of him being in unfamiliar territory - some of us have been banging on about it for a while, and it *has* to play it's part.

I mean, put Cairoli on the starting gate for tomorrow nights Supercross, and I wouldn't be at all surprised to see him finish outside of the top ten.
Bud I would be surprised, if AC could make it out of the LCQ!

This shit ain't no joke, Ryan needs some help here to put things in perspective and Obama just sent reinforcements. This guy just boarded a private jet headed for Losail.

maybe sending a swat team and kill the faster guys will be enough

All in good fun. No reasonable person expected RV to dominate from race 1, and no reasonable person thinks he won't run up front either.
Yeah, but not many "reasonable person" here in this forum :D

So then RV should've just walked away from everyone seeing as the track is so simpleWhistling I get a kick out of everyone thinking it's going to be a cake walk for RV. This series gets zero respect in the US because they think it's a second rate series. This is going to be awesome!!!!!!!

RV was on the same track as everyone else, he didn't get no respect from the Big Boys

Seems to me the race that matters hasn't been run, yet.

This race is like A1. You have to get out without injury.

I don't think the issue for RV is necessarily learning the tracks as much as it's learning the new competitors.
He's been racing the same group for a long time and knows what to expect from each one of them. Now he's racing an entirely new set of competitors. He'll figure it out.

Can't wait for the race tomorrow!

Go for it Ryan!!
