Tomac has the kawi dialed in for indoors. I think he takes it with marv close and anderson third.

On the Honda I think he will have loads of podiums actually.. if he cruises the first few rounds and let's injuries thin the field out and can battle with less people and set his rythym

Tomac, Roczen and MM 3 way fight for title. Trading wins. I see Tomac winning, MM25 second and Roczen 3rd. I hope Roczen wins it but I think it will be tough. Webb will be winless.

Despite Tomac's outdoor championship... I feel like he almost threw it away if it wasn't for the other's getting injured. If Marv didn't DNF at Southwick it would have been really close at the end with the momentum against Tomac. Add in Anderson and a healthy Baggett he would have had a smaller lead after those crappy races he had. SX he lost early in the season and at NJ.

Anderson could be up there too.

I expect Cianciarulo or / and Osborne to win the 250.

I wish Herlings would train at Baker's factory. Corner speed and agression may be the little difference between Tomac and Musquin so that may help.

Anderson will be a spoiler, i think the mxdn 16 didn't help his sx preparation so i expect him to give a run too.

Roczen, i think he may take a few races to be back at his level then will get some wins from the 5th or 6th race.

It is Tomac's championship on paper but no doubt there will be a good group fighting for it with Roczen, Musquin and Anderson.

A little behind I think there will be a dog fight with Osborne joining the group of Baggett, Seely, Webb, Reed, Tickle, Wilson, Grant, Bogle and Peick, all capable of podiums or better. The races will be interesting in the pack.

I must be working too many hours. I thought Osborne was racing 250SX and 450MX. Did this change?

We'll see. What else is a constant from year to year? Doesn't mean I like it but it is what it is.

all things equal and everyone healthy Marvin has the best shot.

It's close as Eli has unmatchable speed when he is on however IMO Marvin will be on the box every week.

2018 will be a great year of racing, keep the injuries to a minimum and look for a few surprises....Tickle - Craig - Bogle - ?.

1. ET3 - it's his time now.
2. Marv - probably his best shot at a title, but I think Eli has him covered (not by much)
3. Anderson - speed to win, Baker's factory pedigree, not for all 17 rounds, though
4. Webb - gets his first win or three, but too still inconsistent
5. Kenny - not quite 100% at A1, gives away too many points in the early rounds.
This guy probably nails it.

no it didn't.......the only thing that will change is, all the bashing and bitching about sandbagging and cherrypicking around here, when herlings was defending its 250 titles....
i guess now that osborne and martin are still racing 250sx, that idea of sandbagging a pro series is a thing of the past....
