All USA riders ….. Its hard to root for Deegans…with all the Dbag antics….but here we are….

Honest question... do people consider a rider's nationality when watching a race (outside of MXDN)? It's an interesting observation that all of the riders who are hurt are American, but a rider's home country has no influence whatsoever on who I'm going to root for. 

Sandman's comment just got me wondering. Would someone cheer for a rider (who they otherwise do not like) just because he's the last American with a chance to win? I certainly wouldn't.

Saw an interview earlier today with DeCoster talking about that. He was soo pumped and happy about that. Really cool to see

Subtle, but significant  detail: note the lowercase "o" in CoENEN to match the De COSTER.flyracing.global  2026-06-12T185106.000Z 1.jpg?VersionId=zzUylXdkN.q6udg

Is Vohland riding injured? I really expected more of him in outdoors, but it is just not happening. 

Sacha just goes for it, incredible speed but he always looks like he is on the edge of crashing about 7 times per lap. Love the go for it attitude though, ironic that his brother is one of the smoothest riders out there and Sacha one of the wildest. But they are both leading their MXGP classes so it looks like it is working!

Vohland went 9-5 for 7th last weekend amongst a slew of factory riders. He often does much better in the races than he does in qualifying.

Maybe someone can bring back the celebration lap this weekend for old times sake.

We only get to see the 2nd sessions already and they still overlap the shit out of them with segments and replays and we can't watch the first 4 minutes, can't make this shit up

I don't care where a rider is from. In today's world, it's all about nationality unfortunately.

There is nothing wrong with national pride. Look at all the euros on here rooting for MXGP riders from their respective countries. Good for them, the Euro's are looking really good.
