Stewart back out with a broken finger, Byrne broke his leg and jacked up his knee. Weimer really sore. What a crashfest. That was tough to watch.

I feel bad for Byrne. He's had such a bad few years. This was the best race he's had in a while until he crashed. I'm surprised Weimer didn't get more injured in his crash.

Stewart is turning into Evil Knievel. Every time he throws a leg over a bike, there's a pretty good chance there's gonna be a spectacular crash.

That goes for Canard, RV, and CR too.

When you haul ass, you crash big. LOL

Hopefully Canard doesn't become the new Broc Hepler, the fastest glass jaw on a bike.

Everyone needs to stay away from injuries atleast til A1. I want to see atleast one race with all the top guys.

amazing weekend for ktm! the dung is awesome for the sport and he deserved it!

kroc finally got a w and the martian got his first overall!

the ktm team is a force to be reckoned with! decoster has done a heck of a job in not so much time building a team basically from the ground up.

RV back on the bike.

RC is back on the bike.

And Trey Canard is back on the bike.

Not so much of a Dungey fan these days. After seeing his lack of sportsmanship when he failed to pass 800 for over a half an hour was very disappointing to me. He was clearly faster than Mike and everyone could see that but his post race tantrum and greed to rack up wins while everyone is out - and his disappointment when his streak was broken by 800 was too much. Dungey should keep in mind that this would have been a very different season if not for 5 other guys misfortunes. Every time Dungey got a bad start, he would have never ran down and passed Villopoto or Reed or Stewart or Canard. He should be happy with a 2nd place, as that very well could have been his best finish with a full healthy gate.
I'm equally disappointed in DeCosters personal dislike of Tony Alessi reflecting how he chose our MXoN team. 1st and 2nd place guys in the lites class and only 1st in the 450 class? When they race TWO 450's and one 250? No disrespect to Bam Bam who rides a 450 very well...but what a joke.
DeCoster did a good job when he brought Honda to Suzuki and he has obviously done a good job bringing Suzuki to KTM...but it would be nice if we had an unbiased American to manage the American team at the MXoN...
But that's just like, my opinion, man

Good season though, especially lites. Tomac is very impressive.
Looking forward to everyone coming back

Decoster had to deal with Alessi when he was on Suzuki and KTM. I'm sure he's dealt with more stupid B.S. from Tony than any other manager should ever have to.

Decoster is the real star here. He built Honda to what it is, he brought Suzuki back from the dead and within two years not only did he get them a 450 (premier class ) win, he got them a rider and had them build a bike for him that he could win and get a championship on.

450s were boring this year. Only exciting part was whenever Stewart decided to show up and crash..... I mean race. Had Stewart been consistent it could have been a very interesting season. Oh well, maybe next year. But all the top riders have to survive 16 rounds of Super Cross first.
