Pre-race: Erin just said freakish on TV. I bet she’s into some freak ish. And SPEED just created a great new hashtag – #28TylaRattrayProblems
Holeshot: Anderson breaks the JDR/TLD streak on holeshots. They’ve seriously had all of them between Seely, Nelson, and Savatgy
Lap 1: Davalos pulls the You Got Served shit in the rhythm section and gets tossed. But unlimited street cred for break dancing a PC 250.
Lap 3: Talking about how tight the battle for the lead is but we are on lap 3, so… it’s really not that close. Finding things to talk about is hard.
Lap 3 (cont’d): Tomac missed the triple but hit the next berm like it owed him money to save 2nd.
Lap 5: Tomac into the lead. Yellow flags but it’s the pros. The NFG rule is in full effect.
Lap 6: Tomac is throwing one footers all over the place. That’s a dead giveaway of riding like a boss.
Lap 7: Anderson dealing with Roczen while Tomac is out. 2 seconds a lap on JA.
Lap 8: Roczen into 2nd, set Anderson up like he wasn’t even trying. Germans are some crafty mofos.
Lap 9: Showing Cunningham now making the move on Baker for 8th. Have to wonder if the sponsors of that team get pissed that no one actually calls the team by its actual name and still just says Star Yamaha…
Lap 11: Cunningham rhythming through the whoops. That’s always cooler.
Lap 11 (cont’d): Malcolm Stew hits the deck #MalcolmProblems. Davalos is up to 11th now after his lolligagging on lap 1.
Lap 12: Osborne welcoming The Savage to pro life, puts him into the tuff blocks.
Lap 14: Tomac on the #1 plate program, still tossing the buttery one footers for the kids.
Lap 15: No one really talking about it but Roczen is catching Tomac. Like, a lot.
Finish: Tomac took it but Roczen was on him like white on hockey. Wait, what?









Damn, this may be shaping up to be a regular feature. Two weeks in a row, we have Chad Reed straight up dropping truth bombs on the whole industry. If you missed Chad’s post-race interview, the main take-away from it was “Nice guys finish second.” Love it. I fucking love it. Because it’s true; he knows that Villopoto stuffed him and beat him straight up. It was not a dirty pass, just Godsmack moshpit-aggressive [how's that for imagery?]. But that’s how it goes, BROs; Villopoto just had that mentality that he was not going to lose the race, and it worked out.
