Who do you think might surprise us at MXON with a top 10-20? There are quite a few names I don't know.

Filip bengtsson top 10 i hope. I have a feeling he might do good for team sweden on this kind of track, Easily top 7-8 speedwise but is lacking the stamina. Counting on Alvin östlund to do well because he need to in order to get a ride for next season after being injured for more then half the season. Would like to see Anton gole brake in to top 20 as well but i doubt it.

Dude!
Questinon was. Which underrated or little known teams might sneak into the MXON final?
Estonia last 18 years of history. 13 times in top ten. And if I'm correct this year for Tanel Leok it's 18th!!! time to represent a country

Dude.
The other question was who might surprise us with a top 10?
A lot of people would be surprised with a top 10 by Estonia, I guess.

I think they're underrated because they always seem to sneek into the top10.
But it gets more difficult every year. They always rely on Leoks performance but he's not exactly getting younger. Not a single top 10 in MXGP this year.

Hopefuly Mexico can sneak in to the A final, Felix Lopez scored some top 20 in the nationals, Zambrano made main events in Supercross and Tre Fierro trains in USA.

Fingers crossed

Just curious because I have no idea, when did Mexico last make it into the A final? Have they ever made it in? I honestly haven't paid enough attention. Sorry bud.

I think they might run top 15 in the first half of their heats and then fade badly. So I don't think they will make the final, not due to a lack of skill, rather a lack of fitness.

Sipes might not fade though, but the 125 is a huge disadvantage.

I believe Sipes is on a 250.

Venezuela could be one to watch. I don't know anything about the 3rd guy, but Locurcio and Anthony Rodriguez should get them into the main event.

Is Tomita on Team Japan? If so, they should have their best chance in a long, long time.

The last time Mexico was at the MXdN was back in 2010 when it was held in the US and they finished 27th and before that was 2007 again in the US and finished 27th.

This year is their best chance at making the A main for the first time.

At least they are consistent! haha.

Hopefully they make it to the A main. I'll be cheering for our brothers to the south.
