Sweet stuff in quali 2 of the 450s. Love CP377 being back in usa sx! He looked dang good in Paris-Lille a few months ago, crazy stuff that almost all of the top 10 is within 1 second. Should be good stuff tonight.

Did you notice Pourcel was the only one that didn't set his front end (Hole shot device) before start of practice? was wondering myself whats the use
Most of the time when they set it they do a practice start

Marvin is a bit off the pace, 15th and 18th in the two sessions.

I blame it all on Keefer.

It's like Race day live gets worse and WORSE every year... Not once did we see Tomac, Roczen, Reed, Barcia, or Pourcel in neither of those two qualifying sessions. Are they on the track? Am i missing something?

I'm glad teams decided against signing Pourcel for 5 straight years. The riders they signed over him have all been massive success stories too.

First gate pick for Canard. He was faster than Pourcel.

Do I sense a hint of sarcasm there?

It gets pretty bad at times. The volleyball guy was worlds better than Bowyer. Plus it seems like they might hire drunks from the stands to run the cameras during practice.

And it is weird that Monster Energy's Eli Tomac was invisible during the 450 sessions.

Great to see SX having great international flavour up top, A Frenchman, Aussie, German and Scotsman along with a tonne of fast Americans, great to see.

Top ten with in 1 second of each other, and the rest not that far behind, SX is awesome.

Just BS that they stop the broadcast with two qualifying session still to go again.

I think this comment was more relevant when there were 3 championship contenders... a ride outside the top 10 left you with an uphill battle for the rest of the year.

While a bad result is not ideal for any of the top 10 riders, it is no where near as bad as what it would have been during the JS, CR, RC era.

In which this really makes this a true world championship race series.
