Zach's rounds 2 & 3 were good, but that triple crown was cursed for him, and he hasn't had much luck since

What other sports does Ralph commentate? Does he say the same shit with them also?

Are you nuts? We have: Sexton, the defending champion Jmart, the 2 time 250 outdoor champion Smith and McElrath, both who have been title threats for a few years, now on the 2 most capable bikes RJ Hampshire, who is now on the Aldon program

I would currently put him as a top 5 contender. I know you say don't put too much into preseason races, but there were alot of strengths shown across the 3 races - speed, consistency and strength at the end of the motos. There some big names that he ... more »

It'll be Sexton or Jmart, both have looked pretty sharp on insta.

I think that's what impressed me most, he was consistently good at each event, and looked smooth doing it

What happened in the first moto? Was hanging with Cairoli, then I checked in later and saw him get passed by Monticelli. Track looked like it developed hard pack bumps more so than the last two rounds, so I wonder if his setup was off

Dunno what it is with Forkner, seems like anytime someone makes an aggressive pass on him, he goes off the track for seemingly no reason.

Side note - they reeeaallly need to add Super Poles to SX

Correct

I was at the Dallas SX last year. The whoops were pretty gnarly, but Amart was crushing them compared to some of the other riders

I questioned why Honda would go Evans over Vlaanderan, but it's looking like a good decision so far

Dunno how the track changed between sessions, but pretty crazy Moosdijk was faster than the 450s

That was a hell of a pass though. Ken needs to start hugging the tuff blocks in the last turns if Webbs behind him

His style is so much different to other frenchies that have done well in SX (and MX for that matter). He is far more aggressive and ragged, as opposed to the smooth style like Musquin and Pourcel.

That 3rd race between Ken and Eli before the restart was great to watch

Spring Creek 2016 is the greatest display of this

That did not look great for his back. Hopefully just winded

Really? Sometimes he drops off when passed, but generally he is brilliant at defending.
