The most talented guy is not always the hardest worker (#94), the hardest worker is not always the most talented (#5).

9.4 x 5=...47

Looks like Malcolm will be our 2018 SX champion. Stamp it.

I would prefer if Roczen does not go balls out and instead finishes healthy, even if not in 1st place. If he does that he will have a long and successful career. If he gets injured again he may have one of those "what if" careers, and that would suck.

I'd put my money on Tomac. He got the monkey off his back, IMO, by finally winning a 450 title outdoors. I think he will be more confident and barring injury will be hard to beat! If CW2 gets along with that yamaha I think he is going to do well too. Way to early to stamp anything IMO....

You can't win the championship at A1 but you can sure lose it there!

Tomac is going to win it. He has been in front of marv more often than not all year. Was faster at mec. Sure he crashed and had consistency issues but is still higher in points. I think kenny is going to be lagging in sx. If kenny is up to speed, id expect a showdown between him and eli. Hope its a 3 way though. Those are always fun
You realize Marvin passed him right? I still have ET to win indoors..

Have to remember Musquin beat Dungey at straight rhythm a year ago and finished 60+ points back in SX.

Different riders take pressure different ways.

Tomac didn't put in a championship caliber ride until roczen's was out of the picture.

Then tomac chocked at ny.

Now look at marvin. All the pressure on him in the 3rd moto at Vegas to win the mil, and he pulls one of the most awesome holeshot ever. He had 25' on the entire field going into the first turn.

I agree he is probably the most likely one to win the title. Kr and ET will come out swinging and push each other into mistakes. Mm will always be right there, and will capitalize on mistakes. He has studied the dungey playbook.

The only thing he might be missing is the chapter about always charging, like dungey last lap ride at daytona. Marv all winter to study.

Anderson should study it too and learn to focus. His sx season last year was more like high school football then pro. It is hard to come back from puffy chest stupidity.

It's impossible to say because Kenny is the big unknown. If he's anywhere near his old self he can easily handle Eli and Musquin. But right now I'd put my money on MooseCan.
