Hopefully musquin looks a little better tomorrow. He's way off the pace of the top 4

Webb has opened his gap over Fevbre back up to 1.5 secs over the last 2 laps. RF had it down to .9 but Webb has been a touch quicker the last 2 laps.

So a couple of regional 250SX champs beat two world champs in a race today?

Just kidding... I know it's qualifying. Looks like it was a good race. Looking forward to tomorrow.

maybe because there's a 10 second gap in front of him with 1 lap to go...
Doesn't have much to do with the quali race

good to see Cairoli going ok, i think of all the Gp's the gate pick is the least important,.

Grant is certainly riding like a guy that needs a job.

No just catching on to the way euros do it. In qualifying you don't try hard and save energy. Euros are crafty.

Now we wait for the highlights..... Or do they show the full qualifying races afterwards? I'm sure they did that before.

So we have learned this..... The AMA riders are fast on AMA tracks and the euros are fast on GP tracks. That's why the US has never lost a Des Nations at home. To the GP supporters that say your riders are faster because they win in Europe....that is a bit much. I believe both series are equally fast and faster on their home tracks....is that fair to say? Can we end all the bullshit know with mutual respect?

This race does not even matter to any of them... There's nothing to win accept for a trophy that no one will even remember on monday. The only trophy that matters is being raced for next week.

I think you're being a bit optimistic there.

I have a crazy idea - what if we all just gave respect and congratulations to whoever did well in any given event, regardless of where they came from or where they raced. You know, that unconditional thing.

And those who read the congratulatory statements were able to interpret them as they were intended - not as wide sweeping, "we're better than you" jabs, but as honest comments on an MX event.

That's what were all on here for, right?

Cheers friends, looking forward to tomorrow

Doesn't he already have a job though? I thought he signed with Kawi?
