Supercross 2025 predictions, general discussion

Great race. Just caught up with it. Roczen now points leader.

 

I was without access to the interwebs. Good race for sure. Prado already out which is a bummer. I really want to see this guy healthy for the outdoors where he will, I think, shine. Triple Crown tonight

 

Not a fan of the triple crown, I would rather see two Moto's than three. Hey I'm old what can I say . . . I do hope Prado gets healthy for outdoors, He is incredibly fast !!! Hoping for some great racing tonight !

 

Yeah I'm with you on the triple crowns. I have a feeling most of the racers don't like them either. Was a good race. Sucks what happened to Jett but that is stupid cross. Most rarely get through it without injury. I wish one year they would to the outdoors first then stupid cross but that is very wishful thinking since I'm sure it has to do with stadium availabilities and the fact most of the outdoor tracks are under the snow.

The point being, how cool would it be if everyone was healthy for the outdoors!

 

I would agree. The only thing I can say about supercross is it does bring more mainstream sports fans because of being in stadiums. Going to supercross is so easy compared to going to a national as a fan. My wife has been to a couple supercross races but has no desire to go to an outdoor national.

 

Very true. I do like supercross but it's a love/hate relationship due to the constant injuries which again, greatly effects the outdoors.

If the rest of the field now can stay healthy this supercross season is shaping up to be very good.

 

Yeah the injury aspect it does put a damper on things. I follow the outdoors and the GPs, especially if there's an American riding, closer than I do supercross.

 

WOW, just WOW ! Don't want to spoil it so I will wait for comments !!?

 

My response also. What a night! I personally don’t care for the Stewart’s but I will give mookie the credit he deserves, he really has put in a ton of work to finally make it on top of the box. Glad to see he’s racing clean now and not just passing because of taking people out. Hope tomac will be back to normal soon enough to still have a championship chance. Roczen got totally screwed over by a lapper that should have been out of the way. I know they qualified fast enough to earn a spot out there, but something needs to be addressed with the ones that pay no attention to the blue flags. When sexton went down I had just told my kids to expect a problem with him as soon as Stewart put a little pressure on him. Then, BAM, all he did was notice Stewart was there and he went down. Sexton has speed he just can’t seem to focus when the pressure is on. Certainly being an interesting season so far. Can’t wait for Daytona to see them on a big track

There, I spoiled it

 

I know lappers are part of it but that was a bummer for Kenny. Eli's foot or calf hopefully heals up pretty quick. I don't see Chase being able to withstand the pressure and as always you got to watch out for Webb. It definitely has been entertaining this year ! I just hope all the guys stay / get healthy for the outdoors !!!!

 

That was a crazy race. I watched the Tomac incident live and was in disbelief. I feel this was his championship to lose. He was riding so well. Not sure if he will be able to continue or not. Hopefully by some miracle he heals up in one week. If not his championship is done.

The Roczen debacle was so unfortunate for him but that is what lappers do, and in that section of the track, things are going to happen. Sort of feel Kenny could have laid back a little until after that section, but I understand he was in a rhythm and charging. And of course who would have predicted the lapper would be landing on his chain and ejected him under another riders bike off the track. Crazy. Totally sucks he could not continue but very happy he is not hurt. He lost an incredible amount of points.

Hunter Lawrence, another victim of the stupid cross injury train. Hope he is ok, can come back and survive the rest of the season, and be ready for the outdoors.

Sexton needs to get out of his own head. I'm sure his bike was banged up after that crash but it looked like he was a mental mess after that. When and if he can get out of his head he will be hard to beat. All he had to do was let Mookie go and grab a solid second. Glad he is not hurt!

At this point in the season I feel this is Cooper Webbs championship to lose. This is the best position I think he has ever been in at this point of any season. He is riding very well and is a rock mentally. If he can get his starts back, he may go on a run and lock this thing down.

Mookie! This dude was not going to be denied last night and it is about time. The post race celebration was awesome! He has a good family. One year at High Point I was talking with his Dad, Big James, and he invited to sit in his side by side with him. We talked for over 30 minutes about all kinds of things until he had to get going, he is good people. I also remember watching Malcolm on an 80 at Bithlo motorsports park in Florida just about every week on practice days. He was a chubby kid that completely ripped back then. Last night he looked better than anyone on the track. What a ride! Hopefully, he can continue this momentum and remain healthy until the outdoors. He has the ability to win a championship if he does. Time will tell.

 

I think mookie had Chase no matter what. You could just see him carry more speed and momentum and most parts of the track. But once again Chase can't get out of his own head

 

Oh yeah I totally agree that Stewart was faster especially in the whoops. He would have passed him even without sexton going down

 

Malcolm had everyone in the whoops. He was a full second faster than the next guy which was Sexton just in the whoops.

I'm not a big fan of Webb but what he said in the after race interview about the lappers and Roczen is 100% spot on. There needs to be some serious repercussions for lappers when they don't pay attention to the blue flag. If they're two laps down 10 minutes into a race, they need to pull off. They're only endangering the leaders at that point. And that track with all the sand was really nasty to get around a lapper. Look what happened with Roczen.

 

I just read that ET3 broke his leg Saturday night. Raced the main with a broken leg and got 17th ! Murdercross strikes again

 

Hate to hear that about tomac. Wonder if that’s gonna be a wrap on his career or will he try again at least in motocross season

 

The fibula is a super easy bone to heal, especially if no surgery is needed. He'll be back in no time.

 

And Hunter Lawrence needs shoulder surgery. Out for the rest of SX.

Prado, out.
Jett, out.
Tomac, out.
Hunter, out.

 

Thought I read he had surgery on Friday

 

Hopefully all these boys can be back for the outdoors!

 

Detroit race was pretty good

 

I was a little gutted for Max but those are the breaks. Macado's crash was a bummer for me, he's my favorite 250 rider. Points are tied in the 450s which is awesome and KR94 is only 15 points back in third and to me that's incredible after all the incidents he's been through in his career. Hope these guys stay healthy for the outdoors. "Murdercross" . . .

 

Detroit was a solid event. Great racing all around. I caught it again on TV this afternoon and was still thoroughly entertained.

 

Yeah Max got the short end of the stick for sure on that restart. Only saving grace is the two that passed him had a horrible race 1. An yeah that sucks for Macado. Riding with a torn ACL and toughing that out and now this crash. I didn't see but was that gash on his face caused by his goggles after he bounced his face off the handlebars? Imagine if Roczen never got hurt. He is riding well and hope it continues.

Next race is a triple crown and the track looks pretty cool.

 

I love Roczen's spirit. The guy has been through a lot, most would have called it a day after what he's been through.

 

I know I would have LOL. Yes very happy for him. Hopefully he stays in it all year

 

You and me both!!!

 

The track looked very "racey" last night. I swear the dirt has more to do with a good track than the layout. Still not a fan of the Triple Crown. Maybe if they gave points out for each "main" it would make more sense with bonus points for the overall. I'm just an old man set on my way, now GET OFF MY LAWN !

 

Daytona does not DISAPPOINT !

 

Great race
