That's what it looks like to me. Sketchy and he doesn't have the pace. Big picture.

Looks to me like he just set his fastest lap since lap 5 and is going for it!

Marvin has just blown the doors off, a 1:56... 5 seconds faster than anyone!

This track was ripped down to the bedrock...for some reason. If I remember right, same thing happened last year. I dk, guess some people enjoy it, but not my favorite kind of race track to watch - could just be me though.

Is it still too early to talk about Tomac's perfect season?

Not sure who's on the white bike but he's been lapped 2-3 times already.

He changed some lines after Marvin passed. Probably gained 1.5 seconds through the rollers alone by switching to inside.

The Field is so weak, it's almost funny...
It would help if a few 250 guys move up to the Big Boys and get some competition back into the 450's. Half of the field wouldn't score points in the MXGP Class.

Eli never claimed a perfect season so all this perfect season, throw it in your face stuff, is just plain dumb. Anyone who thought that doesn't have a clue.

What a crappy track. Glad I decided to not make the drive.

He was getting killed in sector 3 when he was P1, by around or over a second every lap - just in that 1 sector. ET3 definitely did not have the lines in that moto. He was struggling with the stepup into the corner after the huge quad, and it looked like the outside after the tunnel jump was losing a lot of time to marv's inside double-double.

Half of the field doesn't score points in any MXGP moto no matter who they are. And what you were trying to say is not true. We could pull up results from some of the privateers in USA and their best finishes of their career are when they raced MXGP.

That track is brutal. I am glad that I am not racing on it, but I am enjoying watching these very great riders trying to navigate it.

They should prep the track in between motos it looks terrible, why over water on a nice day?

Gotta keep the dust down so little Timmy on the sidelines doesn't sneeze.
