Tomac is going to pull a Bagget like move on the last lap for a win, only it will be for the championship!!!
BB will pull a 3rd and 4th which shuts out Eli even if he goes 1-1. This is BB country they are racing in this week. CHAMPIONSHIP.
I can see Bagget pullin a Pourcel for some reason.
I see it Baggett 4-4 Tomac 1-1giving Tomac the championship, I think BB is going succumb to the pressure and Pro Circuit not getting a title for the first in a lot of years.
As much as I'm pulling for ET17 -- I think BB12 has it locked up.
I don't think he has lost his speed lateley -- I just think he has been riding conservatively and not taking unnecessary chances that might ruin his title chances. He playing conservative which doesn't make for exciting racing but will win him the title and the notoriety and $$ opportunities that go with it.
Personally I think ET17 is a better rider and no question would prefer him on my team if I was ever in a position to own a one.
one thing is for sure, if baggett doesn't win the title, disaster struck
Since MX is becoming such a team oriented sport rather than individual-- and rules on takes outs limited---
maybe Geico Honda should just have Bam Bam JB20 take out BB12 and secure the championship for ET17?
If you want a prediction, how about Tomac throwing it away with a big monumental crash because he has been pushing the limit and getting lucky a few times already.
Nothing wrong with being conservative and managing a championship, RC did that for quite a few in SX. This championship will come down to 2 things, Eli getting good starts and whether Kenny races hard to the finish or moves out of the way to let them settle it. It will be interesting to see if somebody gets rough to win it, they have been pretty clean all year.
i see a little bam bam taking out blake in moto 2. the mx crystal ball has spoken....
I agree with Claxton. Baggett was playing it safe, even almost got taken down off the 2nd moto start, while Eli almost came together with Barcia several times. I'm fine with either one winning but Tomac will beyond deserve it if he pulls it off. Baggett will do better than 4-4. 71 people voted Barcia....too much, hey why not Roczen while they're at it?
I say the top 3 take each other out, score zero points and Kenny Roczen takes both motos and wins the championship by 5 points!!! How about that!!!
Nonetheless, Elsinore will be exciting for both the 250F title and the Womens title.
Good luck everybody!!!
Eli,Keep doing what you have been doing all season long..Just ride your own race and.everything else will fall into place...we all know you can do it..
Blake Bagget will win the championship. He managed to stay in the points all races. Hopefully he will finish the last race in typical "Chupacabra" style :)
I think BB has the tilte barring anything disastrous. Even though he has been riding hard, I also think he has been riding smart these last 2 races especially considering how tricky these last 2 tracks have been, Unadilla having the treacherous ruts and Steel City being rutted, rough, and slick. They are also going back out west and more hardpack where BB really shines. I would be happy for either rider to win the title, but I think BB is going to pull it off.
