This guy is capable of winning the whole thing. He has really come into his own in the past few years and you can see him improving each season. He has always had the speed but now he is putting it all together. Let's give DV some credit here and also recognize his Tomac grade conditioning, this guy never seems to get tired. I will say that he has been fortunate to be on the best bike in the 250's and that advantage in the 450's will be negated, but I still think he is going to win some moto's and overalls next year

The kid is very serious and dedicated about improving physically & technically every week. Follows both, my training regiment and riding program to the T which impresses me a lot. I don't budge. I don't care if I'm a a**hole, I just want to work to be done as planned and as I want it to be. I wish people would see him behind the scenes, he's everything Americans love, hard worker, always gives everything he has, hates to lose, never settles. He's nothing like us regular frenchies as americans see us, skilled technically but soft and not "killers". I'm trying to get him to ride his 250 with a 450 philosophy to prep him for next year. The 450 class is another ball game. It will be very challenging to get used to the power, weight, inertia, stiffer competition, more physical class and more races. Not sure where he's gonna be but what I'm sure about, he'll work as hard as he can and try his best everytime. Might be enough to be a contender, might not be enough. The future will tell...
I see your guy ride around here during the week, he is normally the last guy to leave the track on a weekday, even in the crazy heat we've had lately. Will Yamaha let him try the 450 during the week, or is it too much of a risk?
2. I won quite a few races, I guess I didn't let anyone by in those
3. I don't watch races of myself, I hate my style with a passion
4. David Bailey (with an I) has the right to have his own opinion about me.
5. Thousands of basketball players were better than Greg Popovic at playing basketball, Greg is one of the best coaches.
6. I know why I don't post here

Today's performance was awe inspiring. I'm sure when Jmart watches the race he is just going to shake his head. Does he have your phone number. lol
Not sure if it was tongue in cheek, or you really are trying to coach him to be a killer. What ever it is, its working. Probably one of the most unique styles we have gotten to witness in some time. Amazingly smooth and yet still able hang it out on the edge. Brilliant.
Hopefully he perseveres and more fans warm to him.
Looking forward to seeing him on a 450 and possibly even a resurgent Yamaha squad in 2021.
You are full of shit. Educate yourself, the more you will know the less you will trash talk with anyone on anything. The year you are talking about he got injured. The next years were a different ball game where RC, JS7 and Reed, with their speed then 4 strokes, stepped up with time against the field. See how many years Reed has done with this 03-07 speed to understand those 3 had set a new standard. Watch 98 to 04 including when he battled MC Larocco Lusk Henry PIchon Windham Tortelli & co, and possibly come back. His nickname "cobra" was for a reason, often coming back through the pack to win or podium, with a technical yet agressive style. Anyway, I just wasted 2 minutes talking to an idiot.
