This coming weekend. I think Tomac will want some redemption. Also i think Barcia will be a lot stronger as well as Chad .

Hard to go against Malcolm with this one. The results weren't there, but the speed definitely impressed me. What was most impressive to me is how controlled he looked in what little we saw of him. On that 250, I felt like we were just waiting for him to wad up. On this 450, it definitely looks like he's more comfortable. I only see him getting better as the season goes on. It looks like he could easily lay claim to "best of the rest" at season's end. Heck, with some luck, I can see a moto podium this season.

Mate , seriously you turn this into a RV luv thread again. We all know after seeing last race RV will probably win again but how about you just try to have a different view on another rider. I'm not saying anyone will beat RV just which rider will improve the most from there last weeks result. Thank you

NOOB, I know it's cool seeing a hometown kid do good but you don't have to be such a fan.

I think Barcia will be better as it goes on. Maybe not this weekend but think he could get a moto win & defo be on the box.


Hope Wilson can get back to Top5 speed & fitness.

I'm going to say Tomac and I believe Dungey will make it a closer race. Not saying he's going to win but I believe he will find a second or two per lap.

Reed, and Alessi.
I hope we will see the return of the old Baggett. His wrist may prevent that though.

I'm thinking Tyla Rattray will move up a few places as will Justin Barcia.

Is this not a home race for Tomac? I think RD has been burning laps and will find that second on average he needs-

Look for Trey to do something (box) if he gets the start same goes for that Bam Bam guy

Mookie. I felt so bad for him on his debut. He was doing it in the 450 class. I felt a few top ten guys watch Malcolm pass by and think dam now another guy in front of me each week.

Sure there's the obvious picks but after a few rounds I think it will be Izzi

I know there's a WP train going so I'll just fuel the fire. Weston Peick went for a 13/8 for 10th overall. I think he's got the speed to run up to 6th if he can get a good start. His moto 1 lap times were really good but he had a couple of little bobbles. If he can get rid of those, he could have gotten 8th in the first moto.

Seely and Wilson should both improve now that they have one race in and are in a better feel with the swing of things. Barcia probably worked on starts all week long so look for him to be up front earlier.

I haven't been a big Barcia fan in the past but he's kinda growing on me. He's mellowed out and seems to have lost some of the attitude I didn't like so much. It would be nice to see him get into the thick of things. I imagine this will be a good learning year for him and expect him to progress through this year and really be strong next year.

Wilson AND Alessi will be up there

GRANT NEEDS TO GET A GRIP.

as for CR, will we even see the proper 22 before 5 or 6 races in?
