16/13 for 16th overall.

On a factory bike.

Apparently the Nationals ain’t so easy.

If he wants to go for the win , then he's going to need to go stay with Aldon.

the Rookie Enzo beat him on the Suz. so it's not the bike really.
Good thing for Enzo since JGR will probably want to keep their top 250 outdoors rider out there

I was commenting about Hill outdoors. Both comments were spot on.

It’s mind blowing to me how bad he is at MX and he is so good at SX. I can’t think of any other AMA rider ever with this big of a difference between the two.

I’m sure he can go fast outdoors, my guess is extreme lack of motivation for it, and doesn’t like it, last couple sx races he fell off too, hopefully on a 450 he can be more consistent cause I like him

If you cruise through the vault he has had some decent rides outdoors. Definitely not on par with his SX results but he can definitely do it if he wanted to.

I think 2 top 5 finishes ever. Most the time outside the top 10.

This season has got be a mind-fuck for him, not sure what is happening. He is consistently the slowest factory rider out there.

He doesn’t wanna be there. Simple to understand

I wonder if he would do better outdoors on a 450? He doesn't seem like the type to just hold it wide open for 30 + 2. Obviously lack of effort seems to be an issue as well (although I have zero facts to back that up, he could be 100% dedicated for all I know) but it's just a thought.

Why not just have a sx only contract.

The funniest part of this thing is the "by line" of Jonathan McCready, but it's actually someone else interviewing Hill. Not to mention the standard and expected lack of mastery of basic spelling and grammar...........

At least this time it wasn't the standard story "by" mccread in which he basically parrots an article/interview from an entirely different site!

I'm not sure if it had anything to do with it, but if I recall, both of his podiums outdoors came at Washougal and Glen Helen, both on slightly cooler days than normal.

Give him credit 16-13 for 2 long motos is a hard days work. If he can go the whole year and not bow out then great for him. But sx is his game just like Mookie that has no ride right now.
