It's time to just stack points and podiums for Eli. No reason to risk it like Ricky said,
Unless Anderson starts ripping off wins. Those extra 2-3 points each week will eat that gap up in a hurry.

Anderson when it’s your year it’s your year so many close calls that could’ve ended badly so far is luck on his side.

Chase Sexton is having a sneaky great year so far, even with his early mistakes.

I’m rooting for Anderson to take it this season.

Huge respect for both him and Tomac though. I love the honesty of them on the podium too

Great race by Anderson!! I can't believe that Roczen almost got lapped. WHT?!!
It's weird, but he got lapped last year or the year before and won the next race.

Marv was sneaky good tonight, shame he got crossed by Clason, but he got back on and still passed some top riders.

It's going to get interesting in the east.

Webb and co. have some work to do. He's going to have to go on a major winning/podium streak. I don't see it happening.

I do know back in Ando's title season in 2018, most of his wins were early in the season out west and he went into podium-stacking mode during east coast rounds. Tomac usually is better in the 2nd half of the season (east coast). Still don't think there's a disparity notable enough to predict where this championship battle will go.

Anyone remember David Bailey saying, "RC is getting away with murder" at A2 2001 when RC put the nail in the coffin on MC? I'm not implying Anderson did the same for Tomac tonight, NOT AT ALL. But I think Bailey may have repeated that line tonight if he were still announcing.

I was thinking it was a smart ride by tomac, with the whoops the way they were could’ve easily pushed and thrown it away. He rode safe and extended his lead on a night where Anderson was faster

Roczen should look at himself in the mirror after this race. How can you be one of, if not the worst rider in the field through the whoops with his talent level and a HRC Honda?

His win at A1 might be the last one for the 94

I 100% fully agree.

It was a very smart ride by Tomac.

If Anderson is smart enough to do the same on night's Tomac has the edge we're going to be in for a great series.

I was there tonight in the stadium. Watched closely Roczen the whole night. He looks as if he is scared of riding an SX track. After witnessing this, I am sure now, this is his last season racing professionally, he might even not finish the compete series.

SX chew him up and spit him out. Such a shame. Oh well, it was a good run, he kept us entertained. His comeback was inspiring. True grit.

He’s still a motocross champion. Give him some credit.

I’m glad to say that Tomac is a different and better racer compared to when he tried to take Dungey out from the front.

Definitely inspiring. Well said.

I believe he’s lost the belief in himself he can hang it out in order to win the title and I don’t judge that as a bad thing.

We all know he could hang it out but it would risk his health once again and I don’t blame him with what he’s been through. Especially, riding supercross with Blake when he became paralyzed.
