Obviously interchangeable its just a list but I tried to get it fairly close to what I thought the lineup is. At least enough to be interchangeable within each group of 5. No list will ever be accurate or agreed upon but holy jeezus this is a stacked class. There is not a ringer or a nobody within the top 20. I remember when just outside the top 10 youd start to get no name guys. That large chunk of 250 riders moving up really made this class what its supposed to be (the premier class). Imagine when Jeremy Martin Moves up? Cianciarulo? Not a who lot of chances to win for a long time the way it is now. Obviously injuries will thin it out but this is stacked.

There's no such thing as an asterisk next to anyone's name in the record books. Everyone needs to line up at round 1 to stand a chance at a title. Injuries, mechanicals, etc. are all part of the sport.
It's not Anderson's fault the other guys missed races, had poor finishes, mechanicals, etc. That's out of his control. Simply put, he was the better/smarter rider this year and was rewarded with a 450SX title.
Will he have the same kind of success in 2019? Only time will tell.
I think he will do better than the others but time will tell.
Really exited for the 2019 season.
On paper it looks like a stacked field. By round 4 or 5 everyone will accept and settle into there places for the rest of the season. Seems like everyone just gives up and shooting for a top 10 is the goal.
This is a forum for god sakes. People are excited for A1 okay?
And then not be good anymore, The KTM is lighter and more agile and if he gels with it and gets his mojo back,
The skys the Limit imo
