That looked like a Friday night race at LACR from back in the day.

Screwed the start and then 2 crashes after that. Not bad considering...

At the 2:39 mark, we clearly see Butron got pushed and missed the rut. He did not make RV crash on purpose. Butron is probably the most difficult rider to pass on the GP circuit but I don't remember him being a dirty rider...

Yeah Rattray having much bigger problems than RV to fix.

RV very aggressive though, can he keep riding like that for 17 more rounds and not get hurt? I hope so.

yeah.. i was thinking the same. I gave him a break , for last year being injured, but he needs to get his finger out.

What I was thinking. His lap times were a bit off but considering all the bad luck I think it's not really representativ of anything. I'm not worried, he'll be fine soon...

Where's that muppet mx836 or whatever his name is?

Like I said, the butron accident was simply that, he had about as much idea that anybody was behind him as RV had of knowing he was about to go down.

And Tommy Searle should be ashamed of himself, dirty rider, somebody stop him before he hurts somebody.

Love head cams coming the the pack , see how easy that quad was? lol, need some more power Ryan hahaaa wtf.

Dang. He was flying before that first crash after the stall. The guy messed up and got kicked out of the middle rut and over into Villopoto, knocking him down in the process. It wasn't dirty, and it wasn't a mistake by Villopoto. Just one of those things that happens back in the pack.

I've rode my fare share of local tracks that BLOW this track out of the water.

Did anyone see ANY fans? How in the hell do promoters afford the astronomical GL mafia fee & make any $ with no fans?

Yeah I saw that in the race and thought well, there's a life used.

What got me was around 4 minutes in where somebody to the right hit a triple and RV double single, the speed the other guy came back into peripheral vision was gnar in its pure form. Was it bobby? Sure it was 77 but didn't think anybody had that number...

Didn't realize he crashed twice.

I bet he was so gassed after passing so many of those goons.

It was Filip Bengtsson No.11, such a cool move. Looked ace on GoPro. There is a 77 too, Lupino

Outside line went double-single, inside line went single-double.

Jesus christ his bike look like it was way too stiff.

The thing wouldn't settle in any of the turns and would swap any time he got in some chop.

Hope he gets it figured out and comes out swinging the next round.

It's Nathan Watson. He's okay, slight concussion, but he's riding this weekend. His brother Ben also had a big crash on that jump in the MX2 race

Definitely not Butron's fault, that was a pure racing accident.

My thoughts exactly!


You can't say RV wouldn't have a solid shot at running away with the win had he started 1st, his speed is incredible and it's hard to imagine that he'll be off the pace if he gets out front.

Yeah, that video made his results not nearly as concerning as everybody thought they were over the weekend. People said a lot about his lap times as well and after watching that it's pretty easy to see why he wasn't posting blazing fast lap times......coming through the pack is waaaaaay different than being out in the front when it comes to clean laps and lap times.
