It’s only 2 rounds if he isn’t in the battle…

awesome.

next logical question - what's the performance clause for additional races...
No clue, but I can't see KTM having Cairoli and Dungey racing the first 2 rounds and then leaving Plessinger as their only rider for the rest of them.

They need bikes on track.

LOL. Having Cairoli and Dungey on the gate for rounds 1 & 2 = priceless. If they both finish top 5?!?!?! Man talk about a buzz in the KTM pits. It will have felt like no work at all.

Smart marketing move by KTM considering they probably are not going to have a full-time title contender. If Herlings can make a few rounds later in the series, KTM can still generate a lot of media buzz at basically half of the 12 rounds.

Soo.

Tomac
Ferrandis
Sexton
Roczen
Anderson
Mookie
Barcia

I’m having a hard time to see either Dungey or Cairoli as a top 5 moto finnisher with those on the line.

Remember RV’s MEC comeback? I know that Dungey will be more fit than what RV were at MEC but 5 years is still a lot in racing.

He's 32 years old, never fell out of shape, and is one of the greatest motocross racers ever. I don't think it would take a miracle at all to top 5 if he's prepared.
Tell that to the morans in the youtube comment section. I guess some people must have forgot who Ryan Dungey is.

He should actually run #212. Bring back his Amateur #. I'm the 281!

Malcolm hasn't raced outdoors in 8 years.

And Dungey had no contract at all before the season, so what’s your point? They could have picked MM25 as well.

So happy I bought tickets for Hangtown this year! Heck, I was going just to see the 222 live, but Dunge racing is icing on the cake!
