That was beautiful how he gave it to Webb. Not holding back to the " I come in hot reving my bike and dont count me out guy"

As far as your thread title goes; I applaud any guy prepared to come from the GPs to AMA, or vice versa, to give it a go, no matter who they are.

I expect a lot of (online) haters in his autograph que with their kids this summer.

To me the biggest clash is going to be Deegan and Prado as far as riders that both ride super defensive and can give it those are the top two.  Gonna be some fireworks between those two especially with Prados great starts.

Well there’s Barcia, but he won’t be able to match there speed.

I was a little confused now Webb thought that move was on Prado.

It's funny because he's a much more skilled rider than webb so he can just toy with him

I’m still not sure if that double kick to Webb’s stomach was AI. But it was damn impressive either way. That’s how you tell your comp you won’t stand for shitty takeouts.

Yeah, Webb thought he could block pass or punt Jorge. He’s not Justin Cooper and not going to play nice. Shots fired!

His interview after the Webb thing makes me like him more. Pretty good with his responses

Great point, I'm looking forward to it.

Prado's not a rider to make aggressive block passes or anything though, he's just extremely defensive often to the point of being dirty. Deegan on the other hand is another level both of defensiveness and aggression in passing

I disagree, I dont think he's defensive dirty. Just mega defensive. These guys have no idea about riding defensively...

I take that back, Webb on blocking Justin Cooper, he rode VERY defensively this past weekend and then complains that Prado wouldn't open the door.

I BET Justin Cooper would say the same about Webb.

That's fair enough, but did you watch him in MXGP? They ride much more defensively there and Prado still crossed the line a fair bit

Accumulating fans ??

Doubt that.

Anyone with eyes can see he was holding up Tomac Saturday during the main.

Listen carefully to his post race presser comments.

Doubt they're buddy buddy back at the hauler.

 

Not to mention how he's roadblocking everyone, resulting in everyone else resorting to barcia like passes on the guy.

Hunter's decisive pass early on in the main. 

Webb's pass attempt after he clogged up the pack behind him.

All made even worse by him tossing anchor after the top guys eventually pass, and drop him like a rock.

I’m here for it. Heat race Jorge is my favourite. If he can bring that to the main, ooo boy. 

Shit I hope he is on it outdoors. Potential to really upset some people.

Exactly. If some here saw all of his antics in MXGP they might feel differently. Cross jumping on teammates, always riding a wide bike and blocking which is fine until it's done to him. Taking out Herlings and Carroli by being reckless. Febvre called him a F Asshole on the podium in front of the cameras because he was tired of the BS. 

 

However, I do agree that it could be interesting come outdoors depending on how he and Deegan mix it up.

I rewatched the race last night.  Webb was in third by the end of the first lap.  It took him until 11 secs before the 20 mins were up to make a move on Jorge.  In that time Kenny went past him and Jorge, and so did Eli.

That was all on Webb.

Have any of the listed riders considered starting the race in front of him?

Webb is a self-confident, unbothered family man.  That drives a certain demographic up the wall. That certain demographic is most prominent where a keyboard is featured.   It's just an observation.

Now that Prado has figured out how to safely fight for position in SX, I have no complaints about his riding. The Webb vs Prado drama this week is a lot of the pot calling the kettle black.

Im not going to lie its frustrating to watch and I find myself getting annoyed with Prado but he's not doing anything wrong and he is really good at being hard to pass. Its not like he's a rolling road block but I'm sure Webbs move was just a culmination of other times trying to pass him and getting frustrated by being behind him in general.

I was kind of hoping Prado was going to give Hunter some of that "body Spanish" when they were going at it.

The majority jumped to conclusions last year. I held out and gave him the benefit of the doubt. I won't defend his actions, but I will say, everything he felt was obviously justified to some extent, considering how it's going for Chase. Jorge has been a different rider this year. Can't wait to see him unleash his outdoor potential. 38 vs 26 vs 18 might go down in history.

I'm not picking up on your sarcasm and I really hope I'm just missing it. Yeah everyone hates what a morally upstanding man Webb is off the track. What?
