Christian Craig recently called DV to coach him for the 2017 Supercross season. What are your thought about it ?

Point the levers straight up, do a youtube channel with a mechanic that uses a big hammer and screwdriver bitching all the time.

He should pay him to help him with his MX skills, he does pretty well at SX already.

Has DV figured out how to travel back in time?

If Craig doesn't improve, DV will just blame Craig for not listening to him.

Wonder if he'll drop him somewhere downtown and tell him "Now, you run back home" like he did with that Bud kid Desprey...

DV is the most entertaining and interesting cohost but there isn't much evidence that he does a good job working with riders. He's pretty rigid and harsh

2016 SX season? Does he have a time travelling machine?

I'm sure Jagger will keep him in check. Craig is also in it for a championship, so he knows this season is going to require a hell of a lot of work.

Chis had his best ever season under DV, the french kids he has brought out here have all improved,

i have yet to hear anyone that rode under him come out and say that he did not help,

I think Craig and DV will be an excellent combo. Craig has so much natural talent to mold, and he has a similar stature over the bike as DV. Craig is already smooth, but I feel like DV could teach Craig how to use that body to success on the bike.

I wish them both the best of luck.
I like DV's frank,unique perspective and would love to see Craig get some wins and maybe a championship.

"first go to the strip club and find no less than 2 girls to take to the track, don't worry about sleep we have supplements for that". I am guessing this would be his first advise. I remember seeing Mike in the Phoenix privateer pits 01' or 00' with no shirt and 2 stripper looking girls on his lap.... #Legend

I think a certain career #11 would disagree.

This is not about DV, but if Christian just does what he did last year, he could probably bring home a SX regional championship this year with no changes . Craig's speed through the whoops was putting everyone, including Webb to embarrassment. Webb was quick enough elsewhere to make the gap.

That is not to say Craig is a shoe-in. It is just to say he is the second fastest 250 supercrosser I saw last season, and the fastest has moved on.

Looking forward to seeing what Christian can do next year.
