That kind of surprised me, and LaLa had almost 5 seconds quicker fastest lap than anyone else.

She is clearly stepping up her speed, looks like no one else was even close. 

Lotte had a huge crash (got cross jumped) two weeks ago and probably didn't even ride until now, I'm surprised she even lines up already. She's also on a stock bike as far as I know. You need to be 100% for Turner because that girl is hauling ass, I think Turner could immediately fight for wins in MXGP Wmx.

12 min motos are a joke though, it's disrespecting for a "pro class".

Jett gonna Jett. Impressive lap from Lucas, I’m expecting him to improve throughout the day. Also curious to see how Sasha stacks up in the 250s

Either way looks like we’re in for some good racing today

I think he rode well, he placed above a 450Mx champion

Also you’re going to summon Herr Lich with this comment

I was expecting Lotte to fight for the win. 

Now I'm hoping she gets the holeshot in moto 2 So that she and Lala can go head to head.

She had a really bad start. Running a stock bike she just picked up this week with only an exhaust. Her times in practice were much better than in moto 1. 

Kinda lame that Yamaha wouldn’t make something happen for her bike wise, she’s Yamahas top female over in Europe.

100%  No way they couldn't have made a star bike work.

I was expecting Lotte to bring an engine, lol. No chance she gets a holeshot with a stock one, especially at Ironman.

That or even have Gizmo/Rock River Yamaha provide a bike for her.

I feel like 450 guys don’t care to send it in first quali normally. Seems like the brothers just didn’t want 38 on top at all this week
