Great racing all day. All three front runners gave us all the show we been waiting for! Herlings was the best in practice and first Moto. Second moto not so much but still great racing.

Massive kudos to Webb and particularly Forkner for a race well ridden.

Our National Champ got the O/A
Our MX2 Rookie of the Year beat the World Champ in the 2nd Moto.

I'll take it.

Does the MX2 class have any depth to it? I almost feel bad for everyone who keeps having to race herlings. MXGP seems like the opposite of the ama where the 250s seem to be the more competitive class this year. I'd imagine MX2 is a snoozefest

I think what this shows is Herlings doesn't really have any competition in MX2. Webb, Herlings, Forkner, are head and shoulders above anyone else out there. Both races it was these three only. Herlings is great, but his competition didn't show us much today.

I don't know...I think you could put Jeremy Martin up there with them...well, assuming he can find his '14 & '15 form again on that Honda.

If you LOVE racing, and enjoyed watching today's action, then you understand what this sport is all about, regardless of what side of the pond you live in or who you cheer for. We all have our guy, I like Herlings, but I can honestly say Webb hauled the mail, Forkner IS the next generation of the sport, and Herlings showed why he's a World champ....today was some unreal badass racing. Congrats to all of them!

That's a statement ride for Webb, badass way to end his 250 career.

the 250 class in the US for sure is more stacked up top this year compared to the frankly quite weak GP mx2 class. Ferrandis and Anstie can go fast but are way to inconsistent

A-Mart
J-Mart
Savatgy
Zack
Ac (not crashed)
and AP been in the mix...

First time JH had a battle and we had more we could've thrown at him...
