Surprised by Forkners turnaround. Glad to see him up there fighting the whole moto and showing that speed again, I thought it was gone gone.

Deegan is an absolute talent on the bike and I enjoy watching him race. 

But holy shit does he come off poorly in interviews. Like he’s right there, so close to not being a prick. But his 19 year old brain steps in and stops that. 

I was probably just as oblivious and bad as a kid too. But Jesus, at least I wasn’t on TV 😂

Young, winning, a bunch of money, and a dick, never heard that one before 😂😂😂

Ricky may have been a bit cocky but not even close to the same planet as Deegs in that department.

What about Herlings? I doubt anyone is or was more cocky than Herlings back then but even he humbled down and became one of the nicest guys in the pits over the last years. Who knows how Deegan will be once he settleds in the 450 class.

Damn Harrup goes down because a fluffy rut broke on him? That never happens at washougal. I do not like this prep, esp late in the day. That corner usually has 6 ruts to chooose from, all solid walls of packed clay.

Seems there's just no passing spots. His fitness prob just took over

Risk reward. He has matured a bunch. He now has clean track and looks like he's just having fun. Title ride

450 OA still isn’t scored. I wonder if there is a protest or something?
