Alex Started a new thread Best race ever?

11/6/2019 10:16pm
Interested to know what people think was the greatest race of all time and why. Take this as an invitation to post any videos you can find of great races btw, especially ones that people may forgotten or just overlooked. Ive got to nominate the Luxemburg GP from 99 for starters. looked like a pretty shitty track with no grip...

Winning a National Championship a round early can do that to followers of the sport. Don't worry about it mate.

I almost forgot Herlings has finally joined the big boys! I think he might just pick up where he left off at the Nations. Will be fun to see how Febvre and Gaisjer respond. I'm putting my money on GP21 as the dark horse.

Russian riders have had a really hard time getting in and out of Europe since tensions developed with the West. I believe a number of Russian riders tried to get hold of Bulgarian passports and this sounds like that play may have backfired for Tonkov. Such an unnecessary situation. Listening to Hillary trying to talk tough on Russia, I doubt...

Matterley is like Wembley Stadium. It looks empty with 20,000 people in it. Matterley is one of the few venues in the world that seems tailor made for this event. Now the promoter has 8 events worth of experience under it's belt it should be a cracker.

Herlings and Cairoli laying down the fastest laps in the final moto. Low sun, square edge bumps - total dedication. Anderson was phenomenal. Maybe not the out and out speed of the top 3 in the 1.53's, but still won a moto and by a distance too which suggests his consistency of lap times played a part. He looked exhausted...

I think it probably is accurate to point out that in many cases a GP rider will compete in more 'races' than US riders come the end of the year, but that fundamentally ignores the sheer attrition of Supercross as a discipline. It's not just the 17 rounds of racing, but also the testing and training for Supercross. That appears...

From talking to a few riders that have crossed the pond, the base salaries available for top GP riders is surprisingly very good. Its not necessarily distributed how you would think though. Paulin's Honda contract was enormous, but take someone like a Simpson. You would imagine him to be very desirable to sponsors - English speaking, highly professional, a good...

I couldn't give a shit about how fans are politicking over these comments. All I can say is this - given these are two of the most un-PC riders in the sports recent history, I'm really encouraged to see how much respect they have openly shown for each others achievements and abilities. If this was a race at Lommel, it...
