Julian just committed suicide. Guess we won't see the American haters this week. Should be nice.

I'm not sure about that one... BOS suspensions since a few GPs, I would say...

That was on Petrov's bike... I'm 99% Covington is still on WP... if he isn't, I feel bad for him. Because he was practicing on WPs this whole past two weeks. Laughing

OK for Covington.

But BOS for Petrov and Tixier.

And my little finger told me that CLS Kawi won't work with WP anymore...

Just got done watching the race... Big congrats to Thomas! Nicely done. His sand riding has looked much better this year too.

I'm guessing the high speed track was more like American tracks, minus the jumps. I didn't get to see it, but glad he's got one under his belt. I'm guessing he will do well again next week.

The track was anything but high speed. It was super muddy early and full of ruts for the rest of the day. Both classes looked somewhat slow due to the conditions.

great result after 2 years of hard graft and mixed results, cool to see the kid pull though,

There's probably a reason he continued running WP. Maybe he will continue running it next year.

Credit goes to Matthes. TC goes on pulp, next race he wins. Steve makes winners.

He has shown flash's of speed just never put it all together, maybe this will light a fire.

the fire would be exactly at the right time one week before his home GP.
Be interesting to see how he compares to Nelson and the other American guys racing

My guess is you will see him on orange or blue next year. Leaning on blue due to pops being at Monster.
