The track isnt racing good because they made so many long sweeping turning straights so it pushes everyone to the outside line. 60% of the track is sweeping one way or the other. Awesome venue but they honestly messed up the track. 

All these long sweeping rythms and chicanes make it one lined.

It's also super narrow and shallow so it's super tame and thus every rider independent of skill can just hold it wide open so no chance for better riders to seperate.

I always wondered if Bell #167 is related to Zach Bell?  Because I believe he did his first year as a pro with the same number? Anyone know?

Hmmm. That was never on the table and a bit disturbing. Can we stay focused on the race and not your fantasies? Asking for everyone.

Here's what Claude says

• Prado: win moto 2 and it's basically done. 2nd is a coin flip, 3rd needs a very specific order, 4th or worse and it's gone. The one way he loses while winning moto 2 is Hunter 2nd, Roczen 3rd, Deegan 4th, a three-way tie that pushes him to 4th overall.
• Deegan: win moto 2 and he's champion unless Prado is right behind him. 2nd also works if Hunter or Webb wins the moto.
• Lawrence: win moto 2 and he's champion unless Deegan is 2nd, or Prado is 2nd with Roczen last of the five.
• Roczen: win moto 2 and he's champion as long as Prado finishes 4th or 5th in the moto (3rd usually works too). 2nd also works if Webb wins it.
• Webb: must win moto 2, with Roczen no better than 3rd and Deegan no better than 4th. Then he's champion, possibly by one point (147 to 146).

If you saw his start in the first moto he let off right when he went over the gate. As much as Id love to see it hes just mailing it in and trying to go home healthy. Unless he tries in moto 2 thatd be awesome but I dont see it. Hes done. Legendary career. I dont see a jmart ride coming it seems hes ok with it being over and has nothing left to prove.
