So there’s a few threads on specific people, but can we give a massive applause to tonight’s top 3?
It’s seems like before this season, a lot of people were writing them off and laughed at the idea of them being title contenders.
I mean they each improved in literally every previous shortfall they had:
Anderson has his drive back, Sexton is becoming insanely consistent and Tomac is back to having his whoop and corner speed back in control.
Idk, what’s everyone’s thoughts? I don’t know how the rest of the season or outdoors will look, but I genuinely hope one of these 3 snag the championship.

It is very early in the season but that’s a rough deficit when there’s 5-6 guys that could win a race

Kenny‘s not riding very smart and doesn‘t fight back once he‘s been on the ground.
Coop just doesn’t have the speed right now. For a lap maybe, but not in the race. He‘s very static on the bike and has a hard time making quick line changes and stuff. Compare him to El Hombre and you see what I mean.
It would be awesome if him and AP start throwing themselves into the mix, this will probably be one the most nail biter seasons in a long time.
How many different winners this year?
Yeah forget that this season has been fantastic so far.
It is great not having 1 rider completely dominating every race making it boring
How freaking badass of a race would final round in SLC be if the points were close enough for anyone of 5-7 riders be in the spot for the title?
DF, MM, CW and maybe even AP (injured?) or MS could grab a win so I think we'll easily se 6-7 winners this year.
Seems like the brand change that took place was in the best interests of everyone.
Idk, for me Anderson and Sexton are absolute favorites of mine. Anderson because i have a very similar riding style to him in terms of body positioning and Sexton because I really admire how he is able to make the bike do a lot of the work for him and doesn’t appear to try as hard.
With a less competitive field it would be much harder to make up ground. See 250W.
What worries me more is that he just doesn't seem to have the speed. He was in a perfect position at A2. In the lead with two guys that probably won't pass him (#12 and 27) between him and his main rivals. Anderson blew by them and pulled up to Kenny within a couple of laps easily. He probably would have ended up behind Sexton or Ferrandis had he not crashed. Even at A1 he wasn't really the fastest guy.
Pit Row
A happy Tomac is a fast Tomac, what's scary is he hasn't even peaked yet he's at about 90% of his ability at the moment.
I love peoples excuses for Tomac in his off years the best one is "everyone has gotten faster" not a chance, The eye test proves that.
Webb has been the biggest surprise so far for me though. Zero wins after four rounds, and he doesn't look like the same guy. 2nd, 7th, 4th, and 8th.
Agree with the OP, Anderson, Tomac, or Sexton will most likely win the title.
If I'm honest, I kinda wrote Anderson off. I didn't think he had the drive anymore to be a consistent podium threat, let alone title threat. I was wrong.
Tomac
Kenny
Sexton
Anderson
Webb
Then maybe someone like mookie AP or DF etc pulls one off as a “wild card”
