So we're back to the days of European supremacy in outdoor MX and the US riders shooting to be First American, which in this case was the rider for Puerto Rico. lol

Hopefully AP and Barcia get through with out problems. I suspect something wen't wrong with the bike early on because he didn't look comfortable or like his usual self. Perhaps the taking it easy for the team mentality threw him off, I think he can only ride one pace and that's all out.

Examples of Eli taking a shit...Kenny can't beat him all year and he cleans his clock here. Watch Barcia and probably Plesinger run faster lap times than him and normally they have no shot at beating him. Just painful to watch

I know they pay his salary, but every time I hear him talk about the bike he seems genuinely enthusiastic about it. Just yesterday he was telling everyone that interviewed him that it was much better than his 18!

Credit to King Cairoli he rode a great race, he’s defiantly still one of the best.

I think Barcia and AP are going to do well in there classes. Team GB could be the dark horses in this trust me if Searle can ride like he did in that moto we can podium no problem.

Ya same, I believe him but that performance just looked like him and the bike were fighting each other. Maybe something was messed up from the beginning

That’s a fine looking bike in your profile pic.

Working fine for me,
Yeah normally I have issues streaming any of the motos live from MXGP, so I just wait until they're over and watch the archive like 5 minutes later. Live streaming is working great here in Colorado with a kinda shitty comcast subscription

I thought it looked like he was riding on tarmac compared to Searle at times! Grinning

Clearly Eli felt that the 2019 is the better bike.

Kawi wouldn't have stopped him racing the 2018, the last thing they want is their marquee rider debuting it in the biggest dirtbike race and performing like that for Team USA.

Tomorrow is another day, he'll come out fired up and swinging!

When people said that a couple of years ago we were torn a new one this site. It hasn't been a mistake that we've lost the last few years. Some bad luck a couple of times but the fastest series overall is the GPs, and has been for 3 or 4 years.

Hopefully this, hopefully that. We are saying Silly Xcross is killing American motocross. Get rid of freeways and get real tracks. The only thing I hear this kid broke this, this kid broke that. Now the guy who said we are smoking I don't know what because we said Tomac does not have the pace, says a few words.

Lets be honest here..Everyone ahead of Tomac could come over here and race the nationals and never beat him except for Herlings and occasionally Carioli and Roczen. He just underperforms at some races. He smoked them last year and this year he lays a turd. You know who is consistant..Herlings. To be honest he could be struggling with the conditions and the new bike but not enough to slow down that much
