I think the more important question is, will Tomac bunch em up?

Vegas 2017 on Youtube.  You get Zacho winning the 250s and  the Tomac bunching. Why didn't Mitch have AC pull over so Joey wins championship?

As long as he races clean. I don’t see why anyone would expect him to move over for Webb.

I don't think I have seen him move over in a long time.

He'd let him pass, then launch him over the berm in the next corner.

I wonder if Barcia would accidentally Bam Bam Eli Tomac in Salt Lake City if that was the deciding factor for Cooper Webb to win the Supercross Championship.

he shouldn’t just pull over and let him by but if he’s on anything other than Yamaha he should lay up to a degree and let the points battle take place at the front unhindered.

I don't think he likes Cooper Webb, anyone remember him shooting Webb the finger in the air in outdoor nationals when they were both on Yamaha

This is the cleanest I have seen Barcia ride in over 10 years, likely because he has the speed to win.  He's right there speedwise.  Why move over for anyone when he has the speed to win if he gets a good start?  No way Barcia moves over for Webb or anyone until SLC and even then only if its really that close on points, I think everybody lets Webb and Tomac by in that scenario.  If its not close, they will race it out.

Anyone that wants to call this guy dumb dumb has to admit, he rides with heart and probably ain't moving over for anyone or even giving an inch to anyone.

Did you see Barcia laugh in the press conference, after Glendale, when Sexton said there was no "finger guns" this round ?

I think he does not let Webb stay competitive or if Tomac crashes out. 
 

I think he does let Webb by if Webb can take control of the championship.
