Chase had his chance to control his own destiny to win outright but could not get it done in Pittsburg even though he started right behind Webb. No way in hell Webb is dumb enough to fall prey to any goofy stuff Sexton might try. Hell let Deegan ride a 450 at Salt lake to ride interference 😁
^^ yup, cross your fingers......
I'm sorry but hoping for the best, wont win a title against Webb
This is SX, if you want it, go out and take it. That's what that #38 guy did and Chase should do the same.
Nice guys finish last (or second). Be THE MAN, move Webb out the way, then go win the race/title.
When you made the same prediction about Tomac a few years ago I said you were crazy and Tomac would never do it but sure enough he did it so I wont say the same thing this time because I was wrong and you were right. 😎
If he is not able to win the title he will lie awake in the future thinking how silly it was to try to win the third heat at a triple crown when he had first place overall locked up.
If he had cruised, he would have the points lead.
Webb would have if he knew he had the overall locked up.
That is the difference in mentality.

Do any of you think that if Webb was in Chases position, he wouldn't do everything in his powers to win?
He absolutely would.
Technically, had Chase won the overall there would be an 8-point swing (Sexton +5, Webb -3). Webb would be leading by one point and it would be dog eat dog in SLC. You are right, though; I bet Sexton would much prefer to have those 8 points!
I agree and he already did at Pittsburg by taking the control out of Sextons hands, and if push come to shove this Saturday then my $$$$$$$$$$ is on Webb being the last man standing.
If Chase is too worried about bunching up to mess with Webb, seems tbat would open the door for JCoop and Malcom for the win, Even Plessinger but we know he wouldnt pass Chase. We all think Chase is faster, why aren't we talking about let Webb out front, than take him out with a block pass?
It did not work for Tomac and it wont work for Sexton. Sexton needs to win and let the cards cards fall where they fall. Webb would have to have a late race crash to loose this championship as he can come from last to 5th with 20 minuts plus 1. Looks like Webb will pass Hannah as the 5th best sx rider of all time after this championship is sealed moving Tomac to 8th all time.
let’s be real here , unless a mechanical whos stopping chase from winning in 2 days time 🤔 I’m doing no extra math when its really simple , chase ain’t goona do no dumb shit by bunching the field , if anything more than likely hes goona chop the wheel off at the start or push him wide going into the 1st corner
Because Webb is way smarter than to put himself in that position. Sexton had his chance amd dropped the ball
Sexton doesn't necessarily have to win. He could let JCoop get his first win and finish 2nd as long as Webb pulls a Cole Davies behind him.
Here's a very possible scenario assuming Chase has the speed advantage again in SLC and he gets a good start in the main:
Very EARLY in the race Chase takes the lead and starts playing cat and mouse with Webb to the point he is running him high and coming to a stop in berms, etc. This will allow several riders to pass. Say Sexton and Webb's passing and re-passing antics push them back close to 10th+ and then Webb falls over with bike upside down in a berm, or runs over the top of the berm and pulls a Davies. Sexton takes off and reels off a 2nd place finish behind JCoop, all while Webb has his issues getting going again. Webb finishes far enough back to lose the championship. Sexton would have Malcolm, Plessinger, Ferrandis, Savatgy, Wilson, Hill, etc to get in between them if Webb were to have a Davies moment.
Although this is a long shot scenario, long shots do happen. 100% of shots will be missed if they aren't taken. Take the shot Chase, you have nothing to lose.
Go ahead and fuck with Webb let’s see how that turns out. I’m genuinely curious. Bet Webb will retaliate aggressively.
Totally agree about Webb, but if I'm Sexton I'm doing everything I can to try and take the title because who knows if he'll ever be in this situation again.
If he tries that I see Webb passing him somewhere and Chase either going down or getting flustered when he now has J Coop to deal with for the rest of the race while trying to pass webb back. We already know that Webb has gone to bat for Cooper with Yamaha and has made sure he stays there. If Chase bunches them and Webb gets past, Chase is gonna have a mental meltdown right about the time J Coop gets past him. The only way Chase gets the title is if something happens to Webb that he can’t recover to fifth from.
You are right, but a bigger grip of dudes in from of Webb will be necessary if Chase doesn't win. The way the points work, if Chase takes 2nd instead of 1st, three more riders need to get ahead of Webb (as you pointed out). it would be more difficult to manage from a strategic standpoint.
like I said 👌🏾no need for extra math when it was plain & simple , see yal hoes later
