Good 2 c the races were close, can't say I'm a fan of the new re old format of semi's as the holeshot takes on bigger part in qualifying.
Nice to c Reed getting a good result after last year and He'll be a spoiler for some as I can't see him winning the overall but he will take points away from a few championship contenders.
Ditto the same for Bubba supa fast just seems to crash a lot now days.
Finally KTM have 2 top riders who can win and when Milsaps returns that'll be 3 . You just can't relie on 1 rider to do it alone.
Yeah have to say it was an awesome opening round, although if there is a negative to this season, it's that there are so many 250 riders on their rookie 450 year, there's feck all riders left in the 250 class I know anything about.
I'd say RV still has the outright pace, A1 showed Roczen has the speed to stay with him, but not catch him. JS7 was fast as feck until he crashed, which shows he's still riding at 11/10ths. If he could hold it together he could win, but I think we'll continue to see more flashes of crazy speed and more crashes.
Also agree it's good to see Reed getting some form back, but there are so many fast guys in the 450s this year, I reckon it will be won and lost on the worst races, rather than the best.
agreed with the last line, RV did not seem keen to try to get back to the front and was happy to start with a top 5, he showed some pace in the heats, and when it gets back to east coast with better dirt it will be interesting to see how he goes,
thought Roczen might get a win this year, did not expect it at round 1, I like the semi's, as it will give more guys tv time, and i like the 22 man main events in the 450's as well,
West Coast
Dean Wilson - PCK - won 250 outdoors in 2011, was in The Moto: Inside the Outdoors
Zack Osbourne - GH - won some GPs and came back to join Geico last year, 1-2 podiums in both supercross and outdoors, was in Moto4
Jason Anderson - RSK - won a main last year, and been mentioned a bit recently due to Rockstar changing to KTM
Cole Seely - TLDH - has been round for a while
Cooper Webb - SRY - one of the most well known rookies, featured in the first series of Road to Lorettas (on red bull youtube channel)
Darryn Durham - PCK - has been around a while
Justin Hill - PCK - brother of Josh Hill
Malcom Stewart - TLDH - brother of James, rode 450s last outdoors.
Jesse Nelson - TLDH - second year, has been mentioned due to getting a few holeshots last year, also featured in the first series of Road to Lorettas (on red bull youtube channel)
Austin Politelli - just crashed this week in practice so be sitting out a while
East Coast
Pro Circuit Kawi have Baggett, Ciancirulo and Davalos
Geico Hon have Bogle, Bisceglia
Star Racing Yam have the younger Martin
Don't think Troy Lee Hon do the east coast
Probably a few more I've forgotten but that should get you started
Smoke 'em if you have 'em
You run what you brung, and pray you brought enough
Phoenix SX on right now (4.14pm Sunday NZ time)
I'm waiting for another hour or so before I watch it so I can ff thru the ads.
Dungey needs a kick in the nuts! Pull the trigger man FFS.
And Anderson, that dude is ruthless bloody awesome
Yep rd has the speed, but his passing needs work, some time watching rev or js would be good, both are awesome at catching a rider and within a few corners pulling a pass.
Another cool track and some great racing, the 450 class is stacked.
Good luck picking the podium at a2, I am not even going to try.
I read De Coster was getting fed up with Dungey's lack of aggression last season, he'll be spitting tacks already.
Best 450 main race I have seen in a bloody long time!!!!!
Bring on the next one!
Epic race, absoultely loving this season, so open as to who is going to win!
Good to see Dungey get some urgency about him as well!
