I've never seen anyone act so graciously after such a gutting defeat. Kudos to the Frenchie!

Such an inspiration. Handled that loss with grace. I think he's absolutely adorable.

He's a World Champion, a true non tucker...

I took down the ear tuck photos I was just having fun... It seems to be the new style...

LOL. I hate the tucking. Gutted for MM, but he had a great year. He is a class act. It seems like the whole ktm team has a bunch of guys full of class.

A lot of these guys must stretch their ears by clamping the tops of them to a bungee cord strapped over the top of their heads, to amplify the look. The "deep dish" lids conceal the hardware.

In all seriousness, there is not a classier racer than Marvin. He'll have many more opportunities to secure a #1 plate.

Agreed, and I think Marv's best days are yet to come. He will adapt well to the big bike and be a contender next year.

The entire KTM team is a class act. I really like Jeremy but I was cheering for Marvin because I did not want Martins inbred teammate to have any part of being on a winning team. It was sure nice to have a title go to the last round

I am proud of you. You were able to stand up like a man and call a 18 year old kid inbred. Congratulations.
Webb is making more than you at 18 by racing motorcycles. But make no mistake, you sir are still better in every way. Don't lose that.

Many more opportunities to secure a #1 plate?

It's always nice to end the day with a good laugh...

(langhammx) I can stand French people. Go back and out find that they lost 75% of their young men in WW1! Crap dude take a family vacation to the Verdun battlefield area of France today and find the skull and crossbones area that still in 2015 exist behind barbed wire today.I too Like Marv and my little old Mom thinks his wife's cute and is bummed tonight that his bike had a fart today

These 3 will be in some epic battles once they are all in the 450 class. Be interesting to see who the third and possibly 4th guy will be in title chase next year.

Saw that one coming. It won't be hard to recognize GATOR if he reincarnates himself, after committing his own version of VitalMX suicide. And I thought it was impossible to dislike Marvin, especially after today.

The reason why they have their ears tikes it not preference. It's the fact that those hats they have are very deep and if their ears were untucked they would look even dumber with half-folded ears

He was ruthless when it came to Pourcel, but I hadn't seen any Musquin bashing from him until today. Perhaps he bears some animosity towards France and used his location as a kind of shield so he could really push the envelope. When I saw his posts today I had a feeling that he had crossed the line this time, whether he's from France or not. Almost like he wanted to get clicked...like you said, weird.

LMAO, hard to tell where people are from... till you study... There's a guy who it says is from Texas that uses the word "proper" a bunch...


example... Jeremy Martin would be hard to beat if he could get a "proper" start...

I was totally gutted when I read the RacerX tweet today that said he DNF'd the first moto because of a mechanical issue. Damn shame. Good to hear that he handled it well.

I'm absolutely Gutted for MM,Frankie, and the KTM team...would have loved to see the epic battle that was about to take place between MM and JM, as opposed to Marvs bike breaking and Martin mailing it in. Not so sure Martin would have Marvin covered today...ugh, what might have been. i honestly think Marvin would have dug deep and won the race, but that's why they run races. And to the people talking shit about France and French people, you are some sad sad sad individuals, France has to be one of the coolest places on earth with some of the most amazing friendly people. I love the French, especially the women...they're very, lets just say, liberated :-).
