The 250 class is probably going to be a lot more exciting than the 450 race this weekend.

Who wins? Can Austin ride the whole race at speed or will Chase just be faster? Can AF even race or does the knee pop out again?

Does Cooper take them both out and win?

Can Marty win two in a row?

Who wins the 250 race?

Sexton FTW and probably the championship. I have to admire Forkner's resolve to try and gut it out, but I think it's a losing proposition. Prove me wrong, AF!

I think forkner will be ok actually. Depends how bad it is and none of us really know. AC won races last year with a torn acl. Forkner needs to cruise practice and save everything for the main

Great story if AF wins but based on what we saw two weeks ago it seems unlikely. If he does win he is superhuman! Smile

I’ve heard Forkner rode on Tuesday/Wednesday so i think he will be fine enough to save the title and then skip the outdoor to get a fixing surgery

If it was only one round left, I'd say Forkner.
But he will also have to survive the Vegas shootout. So I'm not sure he can pull that off.
I'll go with Sexton

Sexton and Cooper are going to get rough with AF without a doubt. If he can run away that is the best scenario but I don't see how he will be the same speed he was before getting hurt.

I hope Forkner pulls it off, but fuck, is there a round he hasn't hit the ground at least one in practice?

I get it that he is finding "what's too fast" so he cant tame it back a bit but it has me thinking if he plays it safe in practice it will end up catching him in the night show... and given that Sexton is 3 points back and Cooper 7 back I don't see those dudes playing nice if Forkner doesn't get a hell of a hole shot.

It would be a shame if Forkner doesn't win it, he's been head and shoulders above everyone for the majority of the series. I get that staying healthy is part of the game but i think he deserves it.

If Sexton or Cooper win this year, it only gives them 1 more year in the 250 class then they're out correct? Seems to me like that might be a bit too soon for both of those guys to score decent rides in the 450 class, especially Cooper given this is basically his first full year.

He may holeshot but won't last the whole race.
