Yeah of course, it's a shit result but on 17 races, everyone will have his shit result imo. Wilson touches him at the start i think.

Yep, remember when title favorites could get crap starts and still win?

Bummer, last I noticed he was 8th. Still wasn't close to the winner though. Whistling

Crazy that Webb has won half the races and doesn't leave with the points lead. Best series in years!

He was closer than 14 other riders, a couple of which have wins this year. After Tomac passed him he matched every pass that Tomac did.

Yep this has been a great series. Baggett wouldn’t be too far off either if he hadn’t DNF’d tonight. Between Webb, Tomac, Roczen and Musquin any of them could win this thing.

450 red plate hot potato.
250, only one person can beat Forkner by the looks of it early, no. 24.

Neither was Tomac. So what does that mean?

That evaluating any rider based on one race is useless?

Good stuff. Savatchy definitely tightened up and probably got arm pump and started making little mistakes and got swallowed up but good progress.

Tomac came from far behind with reed closely tailing him.

Just crazy how close lots of these guys are and great racing. That Ktm team is just amazing. Webb is a drastic different rider than on the Yamaha.

Yeah, the Yamaha 450 proving to continue to be a dud. I believe Plessinger would be better off running the 250 in the 450 class. Webb was definitely held back on the YZ450, but it also helps to be on Aldon’s Program also. Glad to see his attitude seems to be improving... I could never stand his attitude, but always loved to watch him ride with his flawless technique.

Not bagging but I thought friese would've been closer to top 5-8 some nights. The way they were talking coming into season training with Malcolm stepping up his pace etc. hope he has some better top 10 races soon. Glendale was good for him.

Man.. sitting near Forkner’s mom and with all do respect she sure makes a scene when he’s on track. I feel bad, she was in hysterics from heat to main even when he was checked out and a lapper got within 10ft of him. Thought she was gonna choke his gf grabbing the back of her jacket...

Don’t know how I could go through with that if I knew I got that stressed over each of my child’s races.

for supercross that ktm has got to be way better for webb , the yami is a little large, but i think the issue is more AP instead of the bike. barcia has done well on it, and reality is all the bikes from factory teams are only going to be better based on who is setting it up. it really comes down to rider and being comfortable on the bike and just riding it

Good to see Roczen and Webb shaking hands and back patting after the race.

Saw his mom in the Glen Helen infield when he was just getting started out one year and thought the same thing. Debby Pastrana was the same times three. I felt so bad for Travis' mom each time he came flying down the steep hills at GH wide open. She would frantically turn away and look at the ground and yell and shake. Never seen a mom so worried about the well being of their child ever. Was a trip. We even tried to talk to her because it seemed like she was about to have a panic heart attack.
