They could at least show the podium finish before cutting to commercial. That's amateur hour

Kenny held him off, that was impressive, no fucking clue how he did that.
Bagget was all over him then all of a sudden Blake was slower than heck in all the turns. Something sure looked weird.

I thought they would have done that before moto 1 also. Did they save the really good stuff for moto 2?

If you're Dungey you've got to be a little embarrassed standing next to Eli on the podium knowing he beat you by a minute thirty

I hope Tomacs suspension set up doesnt work that good on all the tracks this year.

About the only better 450 moto i can think of off the top of my head is RC lapping the field at Millville.

As far as I can tell thats the largest 450 margin of victory on a dry track ever.

a formal NFL player was talking about the pain killers shots and saying you can only have the shot once and once it wears off you can't take another dose so you have to decide if you want it first or 2nd half or.in this case first or 2nd moto...

I never saw him once look like he was out of control or sketchy at all.

Well boys, that's one hell of a way to kick off the year. Great racing at times, and perhaps an even greater/potentially historic storyline. Going to be an awesome year

What do you expect for free! I say free because very few people run an antenna only.

Dungey is the best at letting guys go when he doesn't have anything for them on that particular day. A lot of guys get sucked in to pushing too hard and going on their heads.

1:20 behind the winner is embarrassing though.

Kenny looks like all he wants is a shower and a place to go to sleep.

Well a stress fracture would be more manageable than a disc issue i would think.

His attitude in his podium speech seemed positive though. Definitely seemed like their bike setup wasn't right

1:20 behind and not even challenged for 2nd is most embarrassing I would think.

KR can't train can he? He can't improve if that's the case. Correct? Riding for the sponsors at this point perhaps.

Not sure if it's just because it's 2am and I'm tired but I'm so bored of seeing those cheesy commercials over and over again.

Is Tomac's throttle just an on off switch? Doesn't sound like he rolls the throttle at all
