I wonder why the 450 motos will run first today as the schedule shows? It cant be due to TV concerns since the NBCSN second motos are delayed. Are they trying to make the 250 title the grand finale of the day?

Looks like they are back to a full 40 riders even in the B session after the small field in Utah.

Why not ... keeps the fans at the track longer. If I'm a vendor there I'm say'n thank you.

Good luck to M&M today hope they both have starts that put them right next to each other.

There are quite a few wildcards this week in the 450 class. All the visiting Canadians, Ryan Sipes is back, and so is Tucker Hibbert. Rookie Benny Bloss is making his debut.

Tyler Medaglias time from the 450 B session would have put him second in the 450A group. He was 10 secs faster than his brothers time in 450A.

Not only do we have a battle for 3rd in the standings in the 450s, but also in the 250s too (and of course the big one - the actually title). So looking forward to this race.

Rookie Benny Boss 15th fastest? Pretty impressive! I think this is his first race.

Hum, based on the laptime of Pourcel I predict the second practice session is on a faster track.

The 250 contenders are already flying.

Do the Legends have transponders on ? In the past they didn't want the pressure of comparing them.

I hope so, I'd like to compare times of the Legends Vs 250s/450s.

So the first motos are live on TV but the 2nd moto, which us the moto that will decide the 250 champion, will not be shown until later tonight? That's pretty damn unbelievable. This is the season finale and they don't show all 4 motos.

Little disappointing the legends don't want to have a transponder.

Wow! By far the most stacked 450 race of the summer! I think that guys who have scored points could not qualify...

Looks like it is slowing down. So far based off the second 450b session Tyler Medaglias fast lap is 6 secs slower than the first session.

It is a joke, NASCAR is on that's why... Same thing for 9 more years with the NBC NASCAR contract...
