I'll go for ..

1. USA - mentally stronger and probably get better starts than France
2 France - Three riders as good as the US and could very easily win it if they ride to their potential, but need the starts.
3. GB - close fight with Aus... but think GB will make it to the podium and with Searle and Wilson both flying plus Ando, they have a great chance.

Just to be different Wink

France
USA
Australia

And predictions for race winners

MX1/MX2 Cairoli
MX2/MX3 RV
MX1/MX3 Pourcel

I think RV will win indivdual honours, with K-Roc winning MX2, and AC will top MX1.

Well, thats what I want to happen lol

I think team france is the team to beat, home crowd support and three solid riders. team america will be close but will have it rough in france. AC will come out fighting for the individual honors RV and RD will have to bring their A game come sunday. I know my predictions havent been to good last few years but this time i feel good about it, something special is going to happen this weekend. EURO SPIRIT!

france

usa

1 USA
2 Australia
3 Great Brittan

France doesn't make the podium because Porcel pulls off the track both times because he cant take the heat and finally remembers what its like to race against Americans and gets scared because he cant win.

As we saw in 2009 anything can happen. There are a hell of a lot of fast riders this year But it's hard to bet against the Ryans and if the real Baggett shows up...

For me it's a toss up for 1st. All 3 French guys have raced there numerous times. All of the Americans have never been. Bike set up and also Baggett worry me. If Marvin beats him and either Pourcel or Paulin win a moto we're in trouble and frankly that's not a far off proposition.

Aussies or Brits on the bottom step.

I just think the Ryans are looking very strong right now. And when BB is on he is very very fast.

Hard to bed against the 2 Ryans. They totally dominated the AMA series after chad Reeds crash .In Europe there is just no rider that is really dominant this year so assuming both series are pretty equal........ The only way I see USA getting beat is if the French are having a good day and riding to their full potentional which they haven't done all year long (except for maybe Paulin in MX2)

I also hope Cairoli show his full potentional. I know he is better as his last couple results in MXON. One problem with Cairoli is he mostly just doesn't get good starts. Is there someone who ever won over Cairoli the last couple of years when he got the holeshot btw?

That would be damn impressive, especially since here will only be 2 on the track at a time.

I dont think anyone will be close to the Ryans... to me, the excitement will be watching KRoc to see how far up he finishes. I'm guessing a 2nd in the MX2/MX3 moto, behind RV

USA to win. the 2 Ryans are just so strong right now, lapping 8 secs a lap faster the the rest of the field the other week at Steel City ! But I know things will a lot different this weekend.

France, like everyone says will be thier main rivals but does depend on what kind of Pourcel turns up.

And with what has happen to all the other teams if Team GB does not get top 3 then they have failed, its a great chance for them they have to take it.

As for the battle of Scandinavia / Nordic Countries - Its very close this year and even matched.

1. Sweden
2. Denmark
3. Norway
4. Finland

I agree with K-Roc finishin 2nd in that moto and I think he he'll be top 5 in the mx1/mx2 moto.
