I thought the opposite as u can jump from the inside pretty easily. Not really a hack to slow down before the finish line on the jump which is not right after the corner lol

If there is less than a 1-second gap between 10 racers does that mean we have a no-passing track?

Prado was in front of him. They only got somewhat close because Ken took the weird roll angle into the finish line.

I’m a Webb fan but it would take something catastrophic from both Ken and Hunter for him to have a shot. I guess you aren’t out of it until you are mathematically eliminated but he is pretty much out of it realistically.

The timing loop ends somewhere near the base of the take off not the tippy top of the jump.

Cutting down in the turns. Jumping whoops. That's what supercross is all about

yeah I know, I still thought he was not cutting to save time as the run up is long enough. But I just rewatched it and you are right. He jumped into the small roller into the corner

RC, sitting in the chair on Race Day Live, can’t stop twisting the throttle (chairs arm). So funny

Why do these young dudes refer to themselves in the plural? (mountain bike guy). Dungey used to do that out of respect for his team, but now I hear it all the time in just everyday talk.

Apparently got a crick in neck a few weeks ago and has had a rough time. Sounds comical but literally what he said in interviews.

The best sx riders of all time made a living skimming, not jumping the whoops.  Not related to Webb specifically here, but c'mon man.

Good afternoon moto buds!  Just got home, trying to get caught up.  

I see a gnarly Savatgy injury, that sucks.  And both classes topped in Q1 by someone unexpected…. Ryder D hauls ass, he just hasn’t quite learned to do it for the whole race.  And Sexton 4 tenths up?  Cool, but just a flash in the pan, knowing what we know?

Just in time for Q2.  Yay!!

It’s for positive motivation for the team behind you. It’s common with leaders. Anytime you achieve a positive result it’s, “we did great” Anytime you achieve a bad result it’s, “I wasn’t good enough”
