"Did he need to call fellow competitors wimps
in the post race interview?"
Ken Roczen
Hats off to Ken
Roczen. He rode
each race like Ryan
Dungey was only one
second behind him
the whole season.
That's the Ricky
Carmichael way to
win, and he's a well-
deserved champion.
Gregory Eddinger
The only guy that
gave Roczen any
competition through-
out the season was
Eli Tomac. They were
head and shoulders
above the rest,
although Marvin
Musquin did very well
in his rookie season.
Wait 'til Cooper Webb joins
the fray next year and also
Ryan Dungey. It would be
great if all the top guys stayed
healthy, then we might see a lot
of dynamite racing.
Terry Heath
Congrats to KR94. He rode
a smart, conservative season
and emerged from the carnage
of broken bodies to become
the champ. Well done.
He followed the cardinal
rule: Win a championship by
going as slow as is necessary.
Extra speed just assumes extra
risk.
Jim Bunch
Cooper Webb
No one thought Cooper Webb
was going to race at the start
of the nationals with [his] wrist
injury. That is being forgotten,
I think, and it only makes the
championship more impres-
sive.
Bryan Biggs
Cooper was due for a cham-
pionship in the 250cc class
[outdoors]. He and Jeremy
Martin are pretty close in speed
and consistency. It was his turn
this year.
Scott Corwin
Cal Cruthlow
Well done, Cal! Nice to see a
Brit on the podium, now with
Marquez, Rossi, Lorenzo, and
all the other great riders. The
plot thickens.
Happy racing.
Samuel T. Cole
I have to say I wish there would
be some dry races. This wet
weather stuff is really getting old.
Jim Clausen
Great win. It was a good tire
choice and great ride, so con-
grats to him for that. On the flip
side, did he need to call fellow
competitors wimps in the post-
race interview? Lacked class
after a classy ride, pity.
