I'm from Barcelona and this year I hope this guy can win the championship, I would really enjoy it. See that 'Roberts' on top again is great and i like other spanish riders too, Navarro, Vierge, Canet... But idk why I'm in love with this team and I hope they can achieve as many success as possible

Cheers bud. As soon as we kick Rona to the curb, we'll get back at it. Stay strong from the US.

I like this Guy. And there is nothing more American than the name Joe Roberts.
apart from Chuck Roberts.....
How about john smith!
I always thought Kenny Roberts was pretty American..
Apart from burritos 🌯
Man I really hope he can keep going out and putting on great performances.
Met these guys at CotA last year, and I’m a fan now. He’s what we want in an American carrying the flag in GP, but I also believe he’s got the mental strength and intelligence to make the step. What’s missing are resources for the team.

@@nyantrisaklawase934 WTF?
Brilliant video!! more mini docs like this please!! Roberts comes across like a great guy and who doesnt love Hopkins?!!
Great work Joe! Nice to see an American racing over there with the Moto classes.
Watched him clear up the Supersport field on the sole Honda CBR600rr at Barber Motorsports GEICO Motorcycle AMA Pro Road Racing in 2013. It was his debut....and I knew he was something special.
MotoGP, please upload this whole race weekend, the world needs it. Down with COVID-19. Up with motorcycles!

13:27 Maturity and Natural Love of Speed...... if and when racing Moto2 starts again, America will be at the sharp end once again. Good Luck Joe, and American Racing.
Miss that Great Competitive Racing from the Best Riders in the World - MotoGP, Moto2, Moto3, Please be Safe.
Congratulations Joe you will be on the box soon enough
100% pole position ratio in 2020.
lol
this didn't aged well isn't it?
@@rapip3348 context is everything
Love the colors and scheme. Let's go Joe!!
What a great race! Phenomenal job Joe! We are pulling for you here in the US. It's very refreshing to see one of our own who is competitive again. Hopefully this pandemic doesn't ruin the entire season, I'm going through some serious racing withdrawals here.. I'm very anxious to see Joe get on the podium in GP and Gerloff be competitive in SBK. Go USA!
Stay Humble Joe, you Got This !
ruclips.net/video/7pCc3mGIjGc/видео.html
As a fan, I don't care about the flag you race under on, what I love and attracts me is character, and when you see that the guy is RACING HIS HEART OUT! Moto sport isn't just a sport, money and equipment set the premise, but every once in a while comes a kid who wakes up "love for the underdog" in fans, end everybody loves movie like stories...
Joe, keep living your dream, we will be there watching 😊
This is great stuff @MotoGP! Keep it coming 🙏
So great to see an American in the hunt again! It's been far too long.
Cheers *Joe Roberts#16* ! P[>
I'm always a fan of a good underdog story, I'm really rooting for JR this season. I cant wait to see the battles that will be coming!! Gaaaaasssss!!!
Underdog - you do know where he comes from right.....
@@Ofthe7thSon I am aware of JR and his accomplishments stateside. Any American fighting on the world stage has a lot of hurdles ahead and I'm excited to see how this season progresses...
Awesome! Thanks for posting!
Nice to see JH helping out with the team 👍🏻 Good luck 🍀 guys!
Thank you moto GP. Doing your best to keep it alive ❤. Good luck and God bless from 🇺🇸
Gogo American racing team 🇶🇦🇵🇭🍾🥂
Win is coming real soon Joe ! You are going to do it.
Good to see Hopper involved
What a great boost to get during this whole virus thing. Even if you're not American, this was fantastic to watch.
From Brazil here. US drivers have a really great history in the top class. Lawson, Schwantz and Rainey actually ran in my hometown (Goiania) in between 87-89, with Lawson winning in 87 and Schwantz in 88. In 88 and 89 was the season finale
BTW, good to see a talented kid from somewhere other than Spain and Italy. In the last 10 years, even australians lost ground
Gotta fan here! Great race Joe, look forward to cheering ya on all year.

Put 🇺🇸 At Number #1 Joe We All Are With You
its awesome to see the joe in track. LOVE from INDIA.
It was pretty cool hearing the names of Robert's and Gardner going at it in the race. Super stoked and looks like he's got the best mental approach. Best of luck in a very tough class.
Great finish Joe!!!! the podiums and wins will come. Listen to John just don't kick your bike when you go down! :)
Good luck for the rest of the season Joe
I was just thinking about how there were 3 Roberts in MotoGP so people from other countries probably think most Americans have the name Roberts. It’s such a coincidence that he has the same last name as Kenny Sr and Jr. Just a random thought.
There is 4...Kenny Roberts brother, Kurtis
DarkHorse isnt he related, like a 2nd cousin or something?
C No relation what so ever.
Haha yeah right.
Nah all of us who know some things about U.S don't think that😂👌
DarkHorse i noticed he has King Kenny’s jawline! Is of the Roberts royal bloodline!!
É bom ver o john hopkins de volta... que saudades
What a nice guy. Like the livery too.
Good job young man. Keep it up!
I hope for you next season give the best your perfomance in moto2 2021 always support you bro, proud for you..
Great job Joe! Best of luck this year!
John hopkins😍😍😍
Go Joe ! We'll sent your support from S.F. in your future races. It will be a challenging year for you with much to learn, ups and downs, but I bet you can make it.
Go Joe America is with you! From one who has served this country, we are there for you and we are WITH YOU. Oh and btw, don’t cut your hair man.🤟
So stoked to see this future world champion race.
He will continue Nicky Haydens Reign
Ben Spies # 11 “elbows “

Grande 🔝 diventerà uno dei più grandi piloti
Really miss those days when American riders come straight from their domestic championships and be competitive against the Europeans in the world championship, held predominantly in the latter's own backyard.
The last generation of riders I know have done such feat, are KRJR, Colin Edwards, and Nicky Hayden. Can't figure out why the newest generations in MotoAmerica are afraid to make the jump, when the championship itself is a strong proving grounds for talents.
If your not on a factory team it's hard to win and there are only a limited # of them a available that the whole world filters down to. Also, if your in the world (European) series you know many if not all tracks, which gives the euro riders an advantage, look at the caliper of riders that come up thru the MotoGP system, a lot of these kids are world class at 12 and 14 yrs. old. Some have tried, Maladin ( Aus. to US champ) Hopkins, Spies, Herrin, Gagne?. If you ani't totally dominating at home, there's pretty much no point in trying to do the 'world level' events. I also think the economy has an effect too, the US has had a hard time filling the grid with factory support and this year the 'factory' teams are being run by previous years satellite teams.
@@raynic1173 then how about leaving MotoAmerica for feeder series at European or International level like Moto3, Moto2,or even Ss 600? Feeder series are far more even in the playing field, making the need for factory support less needed and riders able to show their talents.
It's incomprehensible to me that talents like Cam Boubier or Josh Herrin choose to stay home to be the front-runners, instead of challenging themselves by becoming also-rans at the higher level. Be big fish in small ponds will not make one better racer. For the record i do admire Herrin when he jumps from AMA to Moto2, and he actually leaves it too early instead of sticking around and fight.
Back in the days American flat track riders could use their flat track skills to ride the GP bikes very effectively. The bikes responded to that style. Today's all bikes with all their electronics are just not responsive to that style so it doesn't translate anymore.
Come on Joe!!! Go git it!!!
poor hopper walking like the tin man

Hell yeah!!!!!
John Hopkins 💖
Good luck Joe. (Also great to see Hopper is his coach). Get well John!! Bring the title back to America like Nicky Hayden and Colin Edwards did.
Colin never won a MotoGP championship. He was fast as hell, and did well at the Suzuka 8hr and in World Superbike (2000, 2002), and broke the record for most points in a season. But his best MotoGP season was 2005 with 4th overall.
But plenty of other Americans have won the world title...don’t forget Kenny Roberts (3), Freddie Spencer (2), Eddie Lawson (4), Wayne Rainey (3), Kevin Schwantz, and Kenny Roberts Jr.
@@philipbohi983 True, I meant Superbike. I should have added more info.
Hoppers the guy that started the
"elbow dragging" I believe.
Does anyone know the song starting at 9:39?
Cool! : D
Joe joe 👑

-If I can do it today I can do it tomorrow..
Man, we need an American rider to be competitive week in and week out, this guy might be the one RIP
Nicky Haden go Joe
I remember Hopkins in redbull yamaha in the Moto gp 500 era along with McCoy ( the man who started the power slide ). Hopkins still looks like a school kid even now the guy just doesn't age .
Now on the other hand
Show Moto E race please. The full year of 2019.
Ridiculous nonsense. The man who started the power slide in MotoGP was 3 time 500cc MotoGP world champion, American Kenny Roberts in 1978. From an article on Kenny Roberts: "The motorcycle technology of the late 1970's featured engines with power in excess of what the frames and tires of the day could accommodate. Roberts riding style, bred on the dirt tracks of America, revolutionized road racing. Prior to his arrival in Europe, riders focused on attaining high entry speeds into corners, leaving braking until the last possible moment, then carving graceful arcs through the corners with both wheels in line. Roberts did just the opposite, braking early, then quickly applying the throttle which resulted in the rear tire breaking traction and spinning, thus causing the bike to slide. The resulting tire spin caused the motorcycle to buck and shake as it continually lost then regained traction, creating a brutal, violent riding style that no one had ever seen before on the racetracks of Europe. His riding style was reminiscent of dirt track racing, where sliding the rear tire to one side is used as a method to steer the motorcycle around a corner. Because of his early application of the throttle, he was able to attain top speed faster than his competitors."
Kenny was a 2 time National champion flat (dirt) track racer before going to Europe in 1978 to compete in MotoGP.
Awesome race Mr. Wig. Is here to.

i,,,like,,,joe,,,very,,,,much
Yeah.. Suzuki watching you too, Joe 😉
Good luck Joe --WSMC#92
If motogp season will continue this battle is going to get down between Roberts, Nagashima, Marini and Fernandez I think 🤔
This kid has what it takes
Is he mentor john hopkins ?
Whad da ya know Joe!!
What happened to john hopkins?
Does he have a severe injury before?
He walks in a funny way.
Yup some crashes. ruclips.net/video/8BwedGvGTN0/видео.html or ruclips.net/video/yMWeGd-lZgI/видео.html at Assen his front fork stuck at 250kph if i remember correctly. And hit the wall at 150 cca.
JH is so beat up from all his crashes over his racing career, I’m surprised that he can walk.
@@RK-hr8pd Oh my god,ouch.
good thing he can still walk
@@flippyfiller ouchy ouch,it hurts watching his crashes
O.K., according to Hopkins: intimidation is everything; confidence is everything; planning the attack is like everything....wth...good luck Joe...
Who's the "rider coach" and what's his story/background?
John hopkins, ex motogp rider
Watch the movie Faster, it's narrated by ewen McGregor. You'll learn alot about Hopkins and motogp during 2001 season
Great, great content! Wow!
Will there even be a moto gp season this year?
Eventually. Hopefully. Same with all sports.
Молодцы Хоппер красава
Where can we donate monies to his racing?
Be patient Joe.

who is the guy at 3:20?
The New Pretender ! ;)
Go american racing🇮🇱🇺🇸💪🏁
I see hayden spirit on this guy
Remember Josh Herron and Ben Spies you are now the great American Hope
The next Nicky Hayden I hope 🤞 even though I’m Australian
#StaySafe
I think he's the next of Nicky Hayden, Colin Edwards, and Ben Spies
Is he related to the King Kenny Roberts in any way ?
No
Both sons of Liberty
Hats off to him! Definitely just earned a new fan here. But does he have that killer instinct? That I don't give a fuck approach to a hard takeover? We will see. Glad we have a great guy representing us. Let's Goooo! 🏁🏁🇺🇸🏁🏁
