Shouldnt Belgium get 2nd since they have a moto win?
Maybe it's lowest combined time of the two best rides as tie breaker? Npt that I know what those times are for the two teams.

I think they look at the third score.

Lots of parity there among teams, should be a great event if the top teams follow those keys to the race. Wink

Looking good for Belgium so far. I'm really impressed with Jeremy - he's meant to be the weak link. Not a bit of it.

Also Brett and now Dean.... Wow, Australians should feel mighty proud of those guys. Aside from that, Dean also showed that the MX2 GPs have good speed. GB also solid so far, could be in for the podium.
DeDycker is our weak link. He is good for 10 minutes but after that.... Joël Smets should've picked Kevin Strijbos instead of big Ken if you ask me. Kevin is really on it lately.

I'm happy to see Jeremy back on the MX2 bike. The stupid 23 yrs old rule made him go up to MX1 class but according to me he is a lot faster on the MX2 bike. He has a fantastic style on the bike. Maybe he now is a little to heavy for the 250 cc but he will stand his ground tomorrow. I have my doubts on Big Ken though.

He was a little injured yes, but last thing i heard was that it was not bothering him at all, so there is no excuse.
I have seen enough today. The first 10 minutes Ken was riding good, but after that there was not much left. Did you see how Searle passed him ? It was like he was standing still. I really don't understand Ken. He gives everything he has in the beginning of the race. He should ride a little slower so he can keep going for the entire moto.

Waters competes in the Australian championship and Ullrich rides the German championship is that correct?
Pretty impressive rides IMO
That's correct - Waters just signed with the factory Husqvarna team to race the world championships next season

Looked like he had a bike issue of some sort.

Didn't have time to read through the previous 12 pages so this could have very well been brought up already; certainly not a novel though -- but should Team USA have designated RD7 as the MX3 rider?

My guess is that he's in better shape than JB9 and thus would perform better in back to back motos?

Looked like he had a bike issue of some sort.
So they say yes. Looked like he had an issue with his clutch. But Ken has an issue with his bike every single week. Maybe he is just to rough. Ever watched him downshifting ? While everyone else is gently tapping down the lever Ken just stamps it like an elephant who is going to crush a mouse. His size probably has something to do with it.

I'm not complaining tho. USA has to do it without Villo, Aussieland has to do it without Reed, France has to do it without Musquin, Holland has to do it without Herlings and Belgium has to do it without Strijbos. Seems like there is not a single team A at the startline.

Maybe he learned to ride on an old CZ...when the only way to get it to shift was to stomp the lever....lol. You are correct though...all the top countries are running their B+ teams at best. But this is racing and anything can happen. The only certainty is there will be some great racing and lots of happy/disappointed fans all over the world. Perfect.
