If only Dylan could start like Pettis. The only reason he didn’t have a perfect season in Canada is his starts. I’d like to see him really start up front to see what his pace would be if he started with the big dogs Instead of always moving up.

I would think 6-8 is possible with a start. Problem is that he's not very good at them. If I'm him, I go burn a clutch tomorrow just doing starts. He's shown the speed.

I think most people would agree that he now belongs in MXGP and not Canada.

Hopefully something goes his way and we'll see him over there full time soon.

He was in the top 10 in qualifying for a long time then dropped to 11th with a few minutes to go.

His best qualifying session.

First shown in 17th on live timing and crossed the line in 15th after the first lap.

Made his way up to 11th and was gaining on 10th, but must've had a small tip over/crash towards the end of the race as in one of the sectors it showed 50 seconds.

He managed to make his way into 15th with a couple laps to go and closed the gap to 14th from 10 second gap down to 5 seconds.

He had the 9th fastest lap of the race with a 1:58.429.

Edit: He washed the front end going into one of the turns. Picked his bike up, got off balance and drop it again.

First shown in 17th on the live timing once again and crossed the line in 15th after the first lap.

Dropped to 16th and made his way back to 15th a lap later.

Made the pass on Boisrame for 14th on lap 8.

Made the pass on Ben Watson for 13th on lap 10.

Made his way past Olsen for 12th on lap 12.

Made the pass on Lupino for 11th on lap 13.

Started lap 14 2.3 seconds back of Cairoli and making a push for 10th.

Crossed the finish line in 11th place.

15-11 for 12th overall.

It would be cool to see a GP brought back to Canada. Kudos to Dylan for testing your skill and hard work on the big stage. Made me a fan for sure.

Kevin and the guys at MX101 have always been great and it's awesome to see them support Dylan for the last MXGP round.

Your history…our history…all of us…seems to based on being the best we can & knowing that we’re lucky to get to do this.

It’s been an awesome run, hasn’t it?

Still Stoked!

Dylan’s got this.

I just want to say congrats to Dylan and big props to everyone who helped him out, from GDR to 114 MS to MX101 and every other sponsor that I'm forgetting.

I've been a big fan of the MXGP series for a while, but the only time I've ever gotten out of bed on the west coast of Canada to watch LIVE has been when Dylan was racing. So awesome to see a Canuck stepping out of his comfort zone and level up.
