What if Malcom had an amazing season and competed for the title and Webb went back to how he was pre-aldon.

It’s so early but it would be pretty eye opening and hysteria inducing. I’m rooting for it

Yeah it may be too much of a hot take on my part but damn he's killin it. Hopefully with the new training program and bike he can keep the pace for a full main now.

Schwartz was a bit disappointing. He did not look comfy at all. Outdoors might be more suited for him because he sure hauls ass outside.

I will say, Hunter Lawrence looks to have improved his body position a lot in SX. He almost looks like a clone of Jett, whereas last year he often was too far back on the bike and looked really tense. 4 rider title fight: Craig, Colt, Shimoda, Hunter.

James always said Mookie was faster in the whoops on their track…

Craig is by far the best guy in the whoops for the 250’s. He is my pick to win. He is making it look easy overall.
He looks better than all of the 450 guys also.

Watching delayed.
The new girl is really good, her interview with JS7 was on point. She is informed.

The Blair and the other guy in the booth? Not so much. They just ramble and ramble and do not call what is happening on the track. What other sport does this? Action on field but lets just banter about some rambling story ....

Kinda shocked by how good Kai Haase is riding. He doesn't really race anything actively in Germany. Definitely not SX

Yeah they do that every year and it's highly aggravating. Always one of my biggest complaints.

Yes Webb being the best sx rider, or damn close to it, for the last 3 yrs is probably just a flash in the pan

Had a setback with his wrist while training and was off the bike for a few weeks. He was in California, but the team decided it would be best for him to race East.

Isn't that always what it comes down to in SX? What's the keys to the race? Emig, get a good start. Carmichael, get a good start. Bailey, get a good start etc etc etc. 47-48 second lap times? Get a good start. Thank GOD for timed races otherwise we would have 12 min. mains.

Yeah typically everyone so close in times equals a follow the leader type race but usually that means there’s a battle at the front thankfully.

RDL did some homework, this stream was great! I know some people are saying “Why aren’t they showing the bikes on the track?!” But I really enjoyed the in depth interviews over seeing the C guys.

Quality seemed great and most importantly they didn’t cut to replays and interviews while the A guys were qualifying.

So far so good. For me the stream quality seemed better than I remember. Like super crystal clear on my iPhone. I’m stuck in a hotel in rural WV. I can get CNBC here, but it’s a crappy old 42” TV. Might have to watch the night show on my phone.

Not surprised that whoops guys are first on each class qualifying, unfortunately we know how whoops are when the main events start.

Daniel mentioned there was talk of cutting down the whoops. Hope they don’t. Nice to see a real, challenging set.

Watching delayed.

Good God Daniel Blair has diarrhea of the mouth. 250A final quali on track, they have now blathered for 4 solid minutes out the the 10min practice about Hunter Lawrence trivia. That is 40% of the entire session!! We all know the story!

How bout lets look at the track and call the action, Craig? Mosiman? Friese? etc.. How about who is jumping what, fast lines? alternative lines? Nope.
