Marvin is going flat out, understandable. I think he will win this moto.

I doubt he's going to have to go flat out to win, Herlings looks to be slowing..

To be completely honest now.. it looks like he's going for the win.. I may have spoke too soon.

I don't care what anyone says, Tomac does not perform well under pressure.
It's amazing that people don't see this. Even media people that like to put their opinion out there.

It's so obvious, there are so many examples of it.

Well he is going to be the 450 outdoor champ, congrats!

Certainly looks like he's able to keep the pace... 3.8sec now. Marv was just SENDING it... But seems to have slowed a bit.

I don't buy into the conspiracy theory stuff when you see Musquin almost eat shit twice from pushing so hard, and the Herlings starts pulling away again. Maybe, just maybe, they're actually racing each other and each want to win?

Would have been awesome to see Tomac staying with the leaders and go for it with Herlings and Musquin.

Cat9 in training. Looks like he's digging moto. Tornado's in the area, trees down and power out so the generator got dug out and fired up. Now the damned cable keeps seizing up.

So Herlings isn't going to pull over and let Marvin by? Worked good for Dungy

Herlings had a few bad laps, that is why Marvin reeled him in, i thought Herlings was slowing down but Herlings is back to 2.09s now.

Dropped Marvin.

Tomas ate the dirt trying to keep with Herlings, who is riding a borrowed bike in a series he's never raced before. Tomac needs to cruise to a championship win in moto 2, he sucks under pressure.

Oh Herlings is just going fast because
1) he's on a 'merican spec bike
2) nobody else is trying because it's all about MEC.
3) this is his favorite kind of track - it has dirt
Pick one

Not for Herlings

That was uncalled for but I couldn't help myself.

Herlings have had issues in traffic in the GPs, the tracks are in general more difficult to pass on but this track has so many lines that he can just go wherever he wants and ride around the lappers.

I hope seely tips over or something allowing Tomac to clinch. I want to see him ride freely in moto 2. I think Herlings would go faster too

Before Tomac stuffed the front it looked like he was looking to give him a race, the crash may have been inevitable at Herlings pace but it would have been awesome to see!
