Looks like he took 6th in the 1st Moto, DNF in the 2nd
And Mathes was wrong
That's what !!
Haha but 78% had him so I guess there is that
The Shop
THIS unfortunate crash late in moto 1 cost him a podium.
12th fastest in Timed Practice, 6th place in first moto, almost a podium, and 13th overall is really awesome, great ride !!!
Any idea why Kailub Russell got to ride "A Group" 450cc practice, since it was his first AMA National? Can a manufacturer, or Factory Team, like Red Bull KTM, quash standard rules and protocol? ~ moderator, please don't cut me.....
Hope KR is alright. Looked to be in quite a bit of pain.
He belonged in A practice.
Pit Row
Either way, he's probably got as much bike control skill as any rider on the line, so he could be competitive at just about anything with a little bit of practice. I think if I could magically have the talent of any racer, I'd pick a guy like Russell to copy. Guy can ride at a high level in just about any discipline, I'd bet. I wouldn't be surprised if he could spend a few months on a trials bike and do things that would just shock the average person. What a gift, combined with what is probably dogged work to perfect his talents!
Freak run in with Barcia falling took away him willing the Moto.
