I’m glad that there are still people being appreciative that we have incredible talent on both sides of the world in the 250 class(es)
Your post is spot on,let the trolls give you downvotes.
Deegan is super impressive, on his day he will Win forsure.
Hunter is the vet of the class, he’s had GP experience should win the championship, pressure is on him.
Vialle looked like he rode a very calculated ride. AMA is a much more condensed wk End compared to GP’s. Vaile will need to learn to bring intensity sooner, but there’s not rush, I’d much rather seen him stay classy & healthy, bring home the bacon next year. 👌
Vialle is a 2 times world champion yes it's true, but last year Geerts was faster, only Geerts had to many crashes.
Just the year before when Renaux was the strongest and Geerts had also a lot of crashes.
Vialle is an excellent starter, he's proven that in the SX and now in the outdoors, and if you put in a few fast laps in the beginning it's almost impossible to catch up if you have a bad start.
Prado proves this almost every week in the GPs.
And physically I compare Vialle the most to Prado. They are very fast but physically not the strongest

All I took from 250s this weekend:
Vialle is still getting into the swing of things in America, and not writing off his season for the sake of chasing immediate results may be a wise move.
Deegan will have some impressive rides outdoors, just as he did in supercross.
Finally, the 250 class definitely has the potential for some awesome racing, just as most of us hoped or expected.
No need to talk down on anyone, we're on course for some quality viewing and we should appreciate it 🙂
I agree the 250s will be great with all the talent. But the 450s seem like they're gonna be a snoozer. All the 450 riders should count their lucky stars Eli and to a lesser extent the other factory guys aren't there. But it's only one race down and Sexton wasn't himself because of the practice crash he took. I'm not knocking Jett because you race who is on the line, but this is a seriously dilapidated field that he raced today. Not a fan but he's the real deal so far.
Have to agree with you on this one dude 👍 Hopefully Chase and Dylan find what they're looking for and can take the fight back to Jett.
450's are going to be a snoozer is an understatement. I don't even care about the other guys. I just wanted Tomac is this fight with Jett and Chase. Thank God for the clear thinking posters on Vital. Yes I just said that. I'm reading everywhere on social media the championship is over already and how Jett is going to rewrite the history books. Pump the brakes people
You know, I remember some of you having the exact reverse reaction when RV decided to go race overseas. I remember how a lot of you were the Vital excuse machine for him when he didn't go clean house on the euro boys.
I read the RacerX interview with Tom and in no way did he think he was coming to America to race an easier venue. He actually stated he wanted the competition and knew he was coming into a very competitive environment. I think he'll do just fine and some of you will have to crank up the ol' Vital excuse machine if he starts winning, which I think he will.
At least he didn't stall the bike on the start line like that guy who won 4 Supercross titles in a row did when he tried to get a world title.
Vialle probably isn't used to carrying the speed he needs to for these smooth 'merican tracks /sarcasm. Did you guys see the MXGP race in France. Totally gnarly. Vialle's fine, as is Vohland with great first moto ride.
On the 450 class, it is depleted. However I don't think Eli would have had anything for Jett this weekend. Would have been to see him try if he was healthy, but damn Jett didn't appear to be doing anything but manage the lead. Smooth AF. With a depleted field hopefully it will give a privateer a chance for a top 10 or even top 5, improve their sponsorship situation and perhaps giving them the boost (like John Dowd) to make the jump to a factory ride.
Real classy thread here. Very Deeganesk I must say. Never seen anybody gloat about a factory rider beating washed up privateers before. Must have been super impressive for one to do so.
Vialle looked to struggle with the track all day. I will make sure and start a thread every time Dangerboy gets beat by him. Only fair to do so.
On his retirement year lol, vialle is fresh and ready. Whole different scenario and rv still won a. Mxgp. Race. What rookie beat rv in the mxgp ?
The amount of track time GP guys get compared to US Nats can’t be understated.
Given Vialle is learning tracks in considerably less time than used to I’d give him some time.
Romain Febvre
Ok,fair enough i wasnt sure what guys were rookies that year.
Well RV did pretty shitty in Qatar. Febvre wasn't close in the other races. But since you asked
He won qatar?
Pit Row
The RV take is still by far the dumbest thing I've seen here at Vital or from moto "fans" in general. That guy won the overall at the second GP and the guy behind him in points, when he got injured, won the championship that year. How can people judge him and say he failed when he literally did three races and won one of them. Mindblowing.
Thailand. .my bad. Brainfart.
According to the GP fans, said Aussie couldn't hack it at the GPs so he had to come over and race the "easy" series.
I have nothing against foreign riders coming to the US, I am a foreigner myself, and I don't have anything against Tom, I'm just tired of hearing how "easy" it is here and how the GP riders are the best in the world.
The entire argument is dumb. And I mean on both sides of the argument. I do have a question though. So Jett is a GP rider? He spent 90% of his career here and developed into the rider he is today from racing in the AMA. But when he wins the GP fan boys get to claim him?
I think that mindset shifted a lot here after the MXON last year. It's pretty clear right now that the top guys are all pretty close from both series and that different riders can win on any given day.
On the swapmoto interview Vialle for example said that he doesn't have a big problem with the AMA schedule, since he won one of his titles during the one day Covid format. He also said his bad qualifying came from a crash where he hurt his leg a little bit. I think he'll be fine.
Cant use the he doesnt race sx excuse now lol. Deegan is 5 years younger and beat him in both now. Lol. Maybe not as easy as it looks 😌
What a bunch of retarded euros

Vialle had a crash in practice and got some pain in his legs, he says.
Evergreen comment.
Tigers and stripes and all that
Odd one, Vialle said post-race that Fox Raceway was possibly the roughest and bumpiest track he's ever raced...
I get rooting for guys from the USA, gotta support your countrymen. But, you seem to take things to almost a personal level. What have you got against the Euro bros? The guy leaves the series he grew up racing, with great success, to try something completely different on the other side of the world. Then after a single outdoor round you are chest thumping like you beat him yourself.... Kind of a shitty look my man.
Jesus, to the guys not getting the RV comments, we're saying maybe don't judge a guy based on round one. Vialle looked good and he's only gonna get better. If I could change one thing about this sport it would be the fucking Euro vs US bullshit. It could be a legit bench racing question but my god it just isn't that at the moment.
