Jett claiming he was conserving energy but looking the most tired of the 3 and also sounding depressed. Not sure I buy it. I like him but he struggles to admit defeat.

Seriously, just give Eli his due. He was around 2 seconds behind Tomac at one point and then he got yarded. Just admit you got beat straight up

We’ll find out the second moto, but I hear what your saying, I had the same thought.👍🏻

Dropped anchor 

Prado had passed his way from outside the top 10 to be just behind Webb, then dropped two positions in one fell swoop, so I’m guessing he either went down or at least off track. After whatever happened he then dropped anchor and lost another two spots.

Welp, Eli just proved how prepared he is for this championship, that must have been brutal. Jett's bike seemed a little off but he charged to the end, 2nd Moto should be interesting 

I agree with Jetts bike looked off. 

Tomac and AP rode great.

When Hunter won in SMX in Texas he had a face of thunder, and absolutely no credit given 😂 the only time I’ve seen him lose well was San Diego

Came together with Di Francesco, looked like his arm/hand/elbow had contact with Di Francescos rear wheel and he pulled out of the race

Thanks. I hope he is OK.

Cutting the 2nd motos down to 25 minutes

Bullshit IMO, this is motocross. Also hurts Tomac

I thought it was a wild thing to say, but he just put the pressure on himself to back it up. We’ll see if he can.

All of the more fit guys just got fucked. Why set yourself apart with fitness if the AMA is just going to give the advantage back to the guys who dont train as hard. Bullshit

Maybe it's not as deep but I don't think the pace at the top can be denied

Probably immediately went to ask the AMA to cut the 2nd moto length, lol
