Without spoiling results, Kreig was closest to being right, but James still had a pretty good race. GP
I read that he went down on lap 12, but he is not the only one that went down, so cast no stones.... He will win soon. GP
I thought it was 13 but I can't count. Krieg you are the WINNER. With your winnings you should be set to pick up another bike lol!
Hey ... Kreig gets the win... I actually counted it as lap 9 .... Kreig... please hit your Refresh button to collect your winnings ... an all new Online Subscription to Cafe Husky...!!! Note : next week I'll have to include the warmup or practice session... down and out on Lap 3....that was one hell of a practice crash !! T
close no? crash in practice (wrong about no crash) but solid in the heat P1 and onto the podium P3, that was a real twister wreck in practice. ooops crash is a crash/tipover/places lost etc. Two-time champion James Stewart was running second when he fell on the 12th lap, and the Yamaha rider finished third. It was Stewart's first top-three finish in the last five races going back to last season. sorry about Morais and Canard, glad both will recover that was ugly.
JS7 is looking faster all the time and right there. Drops the bike and still get a podium, he is right there. Poto is on another level. If he gets his starts squared away the championship can be his again.
RV needs to work on his second starts just like at Washougal. Hole shot the start and then a crappy start on the red flag restart. Definitely shows his speed - he was up to JS with three laps to go after being dead last after the start.
it is to bad... He always looks happy, smiles, and represents himself well.... I was hoping for a season podium for him...
It looked like JS7 was reprimanded. If I am not mistaking, he slowed way down and did not go for the win. When RV got close to him, he seemed to speed up a bit to hold the position. I am also thinking the "revolutionary" Yami is not all is was supposed to be. It looks like he is having some trouble with the handling. Correct me if I am wrong, but Kawi basically copied the '05-08 CRF, added FI and has a winning bike (and rider). While the new CRF seems pretty capable in the hands of a pro, but still funky. Meanwhile, the announcers are raving about the traditional frame of the KTM with these new choppy SX tracks. Old tech better? JS
Reprimanded??? Joe Gibbs speaking in his headset??? Having rode the 05 thru 09 CRF , they are quite simply amazing..... T
I am not so sure about the backwards motor yamaha either, who even rides one besides bubba? I am thinking he did not even want to ride one but went with it just to get with JGR. GP
I also had an '05 CRF and loved that bike. That bike is probably responsible for switching thousands of people to 4 strokes. Not reprimanded during the race. But during the week prior to the race. To me, it looked like JS7 was riding with a bit more control and slower speed. That is not typical for him. Unless he is maturing, it seems his team is reeling him in a bit. JS
I have been getting the feeling he is not comfortable on the bike, and this confirms that. That being said, I will fire the first shot and say he will win this week crash or no crash...... GP
No ths week it goes back to the green machine and Dungy on the pumpkin for second. Bubba will finish 4th after Reed.
