Best racing ive seen in a while glad to see competition back
If the rest of the season is going to be like this, are we in for a treat !! Simply spectacular.
Takeaways from this race:
1) Seems like most of the major players have finally figured out their optimized setups, and the differences today came from the riders themselves
2) If MotoAmerica plans on continuing to use volunteer track marshals, then additional training and preparation needs to implemented as far as adequate fire extinguisher usage and deployment, and needs to be done quickly.
3) MotoAmerica's implementation of full WSBK rules and regulations has made the superbike class far more competitive than it has been in recent history.
just fyi, but MOST tracks/series use volunteers for marshals. It's a tricky one.
@@Showmetheevidence- I've been a MotoAmerica Marshal volunteer before. My point is that I'd recommend MA take some time between this round and next and figure out how to not let what happened this weekend happen today.
This is a tough call. I saw that BMW wreck like everyone else. It went up quick with a full fuel tank, and we don't know if it was caused by a lithium battery. The accident occured deep in trap, the volunteers just wanted to up and roll out of the way quickly. I'm sure next time one of them will bring the FE with them on the next time out. The second fire was put out quickly. It's early in the season, I'm sure the other tracks are reviewing their systems too.
@@user-si8zf9hy1b What would a battery have to do with anything? It went up because an incredibly flammable liquid leaked all over a hot engine.
The minute I saw it pissing fuel out the top of the tank I was thinking I wouldn't be lifting that bad boy up
one of the best races I‘ve seen for the last few years
Wow!!!! That was one hell of a race. Excited for this season for sure
Subscribed!!! LOVE this channel, I try and stay updated with bike racing everywhere - Australian Superbike (where I live) British superbike, WSBK, MotoGP... but I'm loving the series here in America, great classes great races and I had forgotten how exciting this track is for motorcycles.
Sure am glad I bought my MotoAmerica live pass yesterday. Gonna be a great year!
Thank you for the support!
wow this season is going to be awesome. Been awhile since we have seen this racing in this class.. Great race!
Pity for Cam Peterson, but this bodes well for some epic racing this season!
Petrucci vs Gagne was interesting, but a lot more chess games than on-track action. This year looks like there will be a lot of on-track stuff, and that's mega :)
I love motogp, and they're the best...but this race was more entertaining then what we saw at COTA recently.
Thanks the michelin tyre robbing us of actions
Rewatching this i forgot about that last lap craziness with 2 wow serious skill with these guys
Dam! Watched the race live earlier. So, so good!!!
that was an awesome race!
REAL RACING...GOOD JOB BOYS!
Better racing than MotoGP and WSBK. And I've been following MotoGP/500cc since Laguna 1988 when Lawson won.
😂😂😂
Agreed
WSBK was great..But now they favour Ducati..And limit RPM on Kawasaki..
This was intense!!! Specially the last lap. Great riding guys.
Epic race!
Sucks how the marshals don’t have access to an extinguisher. Super expensive loss.
Yes!
damn that was intense
Fantastic Race!
GREAT RACE!! The touch between Beubier and Herrin decided the race. Cagne would only have been third but his merit was to be there in the right place and take advantage of it
In the last superbike race that was this close at road America a few years ago Josh herring caused Tony Elias to crash out of the race in a similar fight for the lead
@@spartacusthebringerofrain3007 Herrin making a Marc Marquez 😁
Jake was just waiting to make his move , had it all the way .
@@spartacusthebringerofrain3007 Josh is dirty
Great race. Thank you for this video !
What a RACE!!!! 🏁🔥
Sekaran motoamerica makin seru karena kedatangang camerun beauber ..by sya pans dr indonesia
Wow! Great stuff
These guys go pretty hard in the paint
What a Racing .👍🏼
Well done Jake well done
perfect timing from Jake going right through them when they hit lol
Wow! Hot game race of end awesome!
Can't wait to see this live at cota In September!
lucky gagne,
herrin try to squish beaubier, even though beaubier was inside and lil bit in front,
Let's go!!! Most competitive it's been in 7 years!!! Too bad Kyle W is on a stupid Harley! He would have been in the mix for sure!!
Wow...seru sekali, mantab👍👍
Crazy race😮
Great race Love it !!!
Awesome race 🏁
Wow !
Great race.
mantap motoamerica makin seru ada 2 jagoan paporit saya bertanding beda tim GASSSS POOOL ...
Dibandingkan wsbk seru mana
hampir mirip soalnya di motoamerica yng bertarung sma2 juara juga kya di wsbk...di wsbk jga ada pembalap dri motoamerica ..
Yamaha needs a liitle bit more power......Epic race..!
Gagne did a very good overtake
Big Pass and she's "Yapping" away !!!!! 🙄
Come on Motoamerica break in !!!! 🤔
Damn...That was good.
Why is there no air fence at the kink? Only hay.
Buena carrera muy buena.
Not sure how Herrin went wide, if he went in hot or got help but he was sure unhappy at the end of the race. Was nice to see that level of competition, especially between 3 different makes. Yamaha won but looked like competition has caught them. Gonna be a fun year…..
When I watched it live, commentators mentioned that CB6 might have lost the front a bit, stood the bike up, and touched JH2.
It looked like something came off someone's bike, (possibly herrins right front winglet?) you can briefly see the debris bounce down the track when the camera changes
Looks like they hooked wings, maybe?
@@darthnerdo4291 It was Herrin's winglet. It was missing when he came flying into the T10 chicane. I don't see how Beaubier could have lost the front. I wonder if it was a bit of what the GP bikes suffer from when close at high speed and maybe their bikes got sucked together through the high speed kink. No good camera angle that I've seen nor heard either rider's take on it yet.
He actually commented on a MotoAmerica vid. He claimed he had zero front brakes after the collision
👑🇺🇸Jake🇺🇸👑 bro your going to MotoGP 🤙🏼
Josh Herrin "never back down"... almost cost them there!
That would have been bad…..
Doesn’t a (professional) organization have any fire extinguishers??????? Just let the bike burn…..
wow.
Wow never seen this kind of battle so close for a while..I really thought gagne will on third place.
Oh my gooooood, why did josh over shoot the turn .. Jake got super lucky .. great racing
If you're talking about that last corner, Herrin got a headshake as he entered the braking zone then his front brake wasn't working right. He says he pulled it all the way in but the bike wasn't slowing so he was just hoping to somehow make it through without anybody getting hurt.
Josh, you'll get 'em next time, my dude. Great effort, great race. 👍👍
jump start
💪💪💪👏👏👏
I cant believe this series doesn't stop a race when a bike is on fire in a place where other bikes can crash into it. I understand why a lot of European riders complain about the safety issues in this series.
gas was leaking from tank, was obviously going to catch fire. glad corner worker is OK
Yami for the win as expected .
Except in MotoGP.
Insanity
so much drama!
Corner workers actually have any training in properly putting out bike fires? good lawdy
With motogp michelin tyre thats a auto crash.
Dunlop or pirelli for me lol I’ve seen way too many grip problems with Michelins in motogp
@@NudaMan the front is too soft. You cant load it for 2 reason, you brake too hard all the time, you lose tyre life easily and cant finish the race strong.
Thus everyone is brakinf way earlier and taking a fast and flowing line(same line) to save their tyre.
2. You cant load it tol much because you will crash.
Dunlop pirelli and bridgestone allows you to throw ur bike at the corner and you still somehow manage not to crash.
That allows all bike to taking different line which gave us all the actions
what the hell were those 2 doing with the bike leaking oil , stay away from that bro! and I laughed at the fact they left the bike burning even if with the red flag already displayed
Malahan seru ni njir
Sorry but that corner work has to be some of the dumbest actions I have ever seen, tilting the fuel onto the scalding motorcycle. It may have lit anyway, but what in the world were they thinking?
One theory I have as far as why Josh Herrin's last lap shenanigans occurred from turn 9 to 10A:
Herrin cut across the track to the inside of turn 9 at speed to cut off Beaubier as they crested the hill and try to force Beaubier to cross up inside and try a dive move underneath. Since both riders were evenly matched as far as late braking, whoever had the straightest line coming into the chicane would outbreak the other, so Josh's move makes sense.
The only problem with that move is that throughout the race the BMW was consistently better than the Ducati at putting the power down near max lean angle, so Beaubier shot up underneath Josh and they met side-by-side. Per conventional physics, the impact would only marginally force Beaubier's bike slightly to the right whereas Herrin's bike got shunted left, which did a few things simultaneously:
1) broke off the right winglet, upsetting the aerodynamic loading on the front end
2) upset both contact patches and immediately compromised traction at both ends
3) punted Herrin off-line, causing the tires to pick up rubber balls, and also causing his suspension to oscillate going down the hill, because the braking bumps in the pavement are more severe on the left side of 10A, where most braking passes occur in car racing.
Maybe Cam kicked Josh's bike....... /s
Moto GP has nothing on this at all!
Herrin dangerous and not in a cool way
Good to see the MotoAmatuer marshals are still up to their usual sub-standard this year 🙄
How long before a marshal or rider dies due to the lack of professionalism or unsafe racetracks in MotoAmerica ?
A rider died last year in Stock 1000. The tracks are no different than the dangerous tracks BSB uses.
Well, that's OK then 🙄
UK tracks are safer both in layout and professionalism of the marshals... they are the best in the world.
You sure as hell wouldn't see them trying to pick up a hot bike pissing out fuel without using extinguishers first 🙄
Sad to see that m1000rr burnt-out, any fire extinguisher out there at the track,actually that shows how unorganized this championship is, lack of marshals training and equipment!!
Not a fan of Herrin's divebomb. Zero chance of making the pass or even the apex, and a high chance of causing a crash. Wack.
He had an issue with his front brake and couldn't slow the bike down. He said he pulled the lever all the way in and wasn't getting anything so at that point he was just hoping he could somehow get through without anybody getting hurt.
watch my RUclips video
Good racing!
As always.... Josh Herrin, proves that he is ABSOLUTELY THE MOST DANGEROUS RACER IN THIS SPORT !!! It's about a 99% guarantee, for any race, that he will wipe-out at least one of his opponents....
Why in the hell takes it so long to extingish a small fire???????????????????????
5 gallons of race fuel im guessing
