Only thing that worries me is JA and his starts!!

I believe he can run up front if he gets a good start. And love him or hate him he doesn't mind making rough passes to get around guys. Not really a fan of that type of racing though. I would have preferred Dungey stepping up to do this but props to JA for accepting the role!!

They still can and i think they gonna get the job done and win it. No team is 100%. Anderson mayby a bad starter but thats the same for Paturel and Paulin to for the most part of the year.

That's the team to beat with ferrandis out.

Awesome for a Martin
I've only talked to the guy once in my life. But that's enough to know that he fully deserves it

Alex Martin? Jason Anderson? no Barcia? mmmmmmk

Barcia killed it at the MXON last year, mistake not sending him again. A for sure win would have been Tomac, Webb and Barcia. oh well.

If I'm remembering correctly, Matthes said that either JGR or Barcia told them no.

And if that is true i'm guessing that JGR said no. I'm sure that Barcia would love to do the race again.

And with that said, JGR sucks if they prevent their number one guy of participating for team USA.

Agreed!

With Tomac bowing out, Barcia or JGR saying "no thanks", and Dungey on the mend- this is best case exciting scenario.

They're very capable.

Anderson feels like a bit of a wild card, but a solid team anyway. A solid and steady effort could go a long way this year and this team can definitely do it.

Webb can take top 3 in MX1. I hope he hops on the 450 after he wins the championship and races the USGP's on it to get some racing in on it.

AMart can definitely podium in MX2 if he can limit his mistakes and get a decent start.

Anderson is kind of the wild card. There's no reason why we can't expect him to take top 5 in MX3 though.

I can definitely see the USA fighting for a podium at minimum. It will be tough with France, Belgium and Netherlands having such strong teams but I really think those 3 are gonna give it their all and have a strong finish. I can't wait.

Wishing this team the best. Legacies are made IMO at this race. Disappointed in Tomac for not finding the fortitude to make it and represent but that's how we roll in 2016. As for Barcia I'm interested in the story as to whether he was asked, JGR decision, Barcia decision etc? Is JGR in flux??? Oddly kind of not disappointed that Barcia is not going as he just doesn't look right this year and probably should/could use the time off to get his mojo back or fix whatever is not right. Barcia was the real deal last year and I hope he gets back to form.

Anderson is coming off injury. My guess is we get our fucking asses handed to us. No Tomac, no Dungey, no Barcia. What a bunch of bullshit. If we do win, it will be because those guys have huge chips on their shoulders.

We'll see.

Jason WANTS to go & he wants to WIN.

So, you'll have to forgive me if I'm not just another Negative Nancy.

It's like this: I'm a Boeing kinda guy...and your an Airbus kinda guy.

I'm jus' sayin'...

I think they will be like the miracle on ice 1980 US hockey team and win! People counting them out and saying they are outmatched. These guys actually want to be there and I bet they have chips on their shoulders with something to prove.
