Incredible, really. And he is doing it with an absolutely stacked class! How old is he now? There are four or five people in my mind that I think is worthy of the "best ever". I may be in the minority here, but I certainly thing he could be one.

He's 31 just turned. He has certainly trained hard over the winter. I heard the commentators saying that he never went to any team nights out/meals etc in order to focus . Great job

What a performance by TC! You don't become the 8 time world champ by accident.

First time Cairoli bandwagoner here.. Now that he has lost it the last two years and he's probably on his way out I want to see him give it to the boys maybe one more year or hopefully two then ride off a champion.

Matured, humble, and no one in the paddock has a bad word to say about him.

He's certainly gonna give it his best shot... I know one race doesn't make a championship but he has certainly made a statement....

He's a beast on a motorcycle for sure.

Watching the qualifying race I was thinking, what would Cairoli do with a little more time?

Well, now we know.

Yep last weekend before I had to head out of town Monday. I think spoke skins are mandatory for 50s and 65s it seems. I don't know about you but those whoops around that corner kicked my butt all day. I think he was faster through them than I was.

I totally agree with the shit track comment.. there are fantastic natural tracks all over the world , with fantastic support for motocross . Yet they choose to go to some piss pot man made track in a country that has very little interest in the sport
