Dungey - SMARTEST Motocross rider in History. Period. Knows when NOT to ride over his head - and look what happens - he wins race after race, and more importantly - Championship after championship.

Yeah Jeremy was a smart racer too, but he didn't have to pace himself and use race smarts nearly as much as Dungey has had too - Jeremy was just plain faster than everyone else, by a mile, than most of the guys during his time - in Supercross anyway.

Pourcel only 0.2 seconds off Pieck at the end! Good to see him push through the pack and finish strong.

Another tough day for Roczen. He doesn't seem to have that spark that he had at the start of the supercross season. maybe this upcoming break will help with whatever issues he's struggling with.

He was close enough. No gifts in moto, Barcia made a mistake and Dungey did not. No gifts needed.

That turned out to be some great racing. I thought it was gonna be a sloppy mudfest but turned out to be pretty dang good.
I was cheering for Bambam and Marvelous Marvin today but still glad with the outcome in both classes. Bambam is fun too watch ride when he is battling for wins. I had to LOL when Georgia interviewed Musquin. Cool

By far Pourcel's most impressive ride so far this year. Awesome charge in the 2nd moto, he was making quick work of a lot of guys in the top 10. Some more good news regarding CP is that he just signed a two year contract with Husqvarna!! Still unclear on whether he plans to race SX or return to the GP's. Finally, he's with a full factory team like he deserves, and can focus on really showing us how much he's capable of!

I like a bit of mud so I am particularly happy I could watch the racing.

I agree on the posts above, that is amazing to be so fast and at the same time be so much in control.

Now we can talk about it again: Cooper Webb or Jeremy Martin at MXON ? I go for Webb.

Eh, I'd take Martin. Well really, I'd take both. Barcia, Martin and Webb would be a boss team. I'd like to see Martin on the 450

I don't particularly like the kid's personality...but I'd pick Webb because of his Tomac-like drive to win.

Great shots, Scottie.

He lost some time in the middle of the race and was reeling him back in. Who knows if he would have got him without the fall but he was closing for sure.

For some reason I feel Webb would excel over Martin at this event. He has more of a killer instinct, where Martin seems to take a little longer to get going. I have a feeling we will see them both there this year with Webb on a 450 alongside Barcia. An all Yamaha MXoN team.
