Great race and much better for RV. He was right there in the mix, not 20 seconds down. That tells me that they went in the right direction between races. This championship is just awesome. Those top guys are only separated by fractions here and there.

Yeah.... I think a 4-4 on this track was pretty discouraging for RV..... From here on out the advantage for the GP regulars will increase big time.

RV is going to be better 2nd moto, trust me. And all you guys who say he's a 4th to 6th guy, shut your fucking face up. It's his 3rd fucking round of his LIFE in the GP's. And he's getting top 5's. That's enough to make all your Euro racers look like pussies. I'm sad for all you guys when he hits his stride in a few rounds!!
So, what is the excuse this moto? Did he get beat by those 'Euro pussies' again?

Great day of racing. Much respect Nagl, AC, CD, and RV hung in there in 2nd moto.

One thing, the GOAT would not allow this to happen. If he got 4th in moto 1 he would have destroyed any field of riders on this planet In moto 2.

He does not look like the RV we are used to seeing, that is for sure. Fitness, bike setup, one foot into retirement. Not sure but it is something.

Completely agree. His aggression hasn't been there other than a few flashes here and there throughout the motos today.

So RV was waxed in track suited just for him? In Europe he will be burried I predict.

Who? I don't remember this guy.... What year did he come and race a season in GPs? That's why I DO have a massive amount of respect and admiration for RV.

I hate to say it, but the championship isn't looking good right now. I truly believe he needs another year there to figure things out, I wish he would reconsider retirement for one more year...from a selfish fans perspective..lol

You know what "isn't right?" He's racing against the toughest competition of his career. I think he looks aggressive and fast out there. GP riders have more race craft and go faster more efficiently.

Come on man , that's not an excuse list worthy of a Champion. You need to polish this up.

I think these guys are alluding to how he looks on the bike, how he is riding the track, not where he finishes in comparison to other riders.

Congratulations to Argentinian organisation, proper track, best riders won.
Please don't insult our intelligence by making excuses about RV's bike set up. It sounds like certain people just cant accept the truth and this constant snivelling about set up does a disservice to a great champion. Wake up and smell the coffee, the MXGP 's are the real deal, as are the Outdoor Nationals.
Just sit back and enjoy this great season.

He may be facing the toughest competition of his career, but he doesn't seem nearly as aggressive as we have seen in the past. That is clear. He is off.

RV line choices were wierd and looked liked he was overriding the track but what do i know. Seems like top 3 guys look much smoother on the track. Great racing though.

i thought rv was just supposed to go over an give a beat down to those slow ass euro pussies like he did a budds creek and not even counting the qualifing races hes only won one race of 6 and hes not even close to the race winners
if you count qualifing races he is 1 for 9 in total races against those slow euros

The most discouraging thing that could have possibly happened to Villopoto just did. He was in 4th with all the tops guys right in front of him and he just sat there the entire race. Bad news for Villopoto. The only race he won, he started in front of his main competitors.
Yup. Please get off your fucking computer. And go race RV's bike for him since you think he's doing so shitty. oh wait, will that ruin your legacy you built on vital?

I've stated several times that this is the toughest competition of his career and that this championship will be the toughest he's ever won if he does so. That being said, if you have been watching Villopoto the last five years while completely ignoring his finishing position and competition, he looks completely different, and not in a good way. Something isn't right. I'm not sure what it is, but if something doesn't change real soon, this championship is history.
