Roczen is good, but come on, you're starting to sound like Lenny with James

How many Gps Roczen has won?
Roczen had Musquins speed at the end of last yeat, he bet Weimer, Metty at the nations at 15.
He is better than Pourcel was at 15, he could be world champ this year, he is very smart on the bike and rides a bike right.
Speedwise Musquin and Roczen will be pretty close Frossard and hopefuly Simpson and Paulin will be there or thereabout too, maybe Herlings?
I saw Roczen ride 2 weeks ago he is a class act.
He is a genuine World title contender, and would give CP a good run for his money. I wouldn't rule out him winning against CP. CP could beat him on experiance though.
While I know you like to think the Euros are vastly superior in motocross to their American counterparts, facts and data doesn't support it.
The GP racers are very fast and very talented, but he's yet to prove anything against top Americans.
CP has, and has won a SX title and would have won an outdoor title if not for an engine failure.
While this may be true, I am sick of hearing it. Because, if it didn't blow, and won, then we could say something like Dungey would have won it if it weren't for that 1 bad start, or that 1 crash he had, or whatever. Its like Jeremy would have had a perfect sx season if he had 1 more lap to pass Emig, or did'nt get a bad start. Or Suzuki sx champ if it wasn't for Lamson, a smashed pipe, and a flat tire. Or Ricky another sx champ-ship, but he hurt his knee.
CP might have still not won even if his motor did hold together, see?
What the fuck ever....what has Roczen done over here?
Oh, that's right...nothing
1. I don't think "Euros" are vastly superior to Americans they are all a similar ability.. that is why CP, Rattray etc can win in the US!!
2. The point is the actually the opposite Americans and the AMA series is not vastly superior to the World Championship the level is similar.
3. Roczen has nothing to prove he is racing the World Championship and is the youngest GP winner ever - he is that good, unbelievably good for his age.
4. Musquin is that good too they have both beaten the US based riders in the nations including Weimar who beat Pourcel at a couple of races
5. You do not need to race in the USA to prove you are that level if you are at the front in the GPs you are going a similar speed to the AMA guys - it is the world championship.
6. Roczen is on the same level as Pourcel and any other top AMA racer and vice versa- if you don't believe that you are deeply deluded.
7. Also it could be argued the top Americans have yet to prove they are on the same level as Roczen in the World Championship - none of them have raced Ken there.
Pourcel is totally awesome I could watch him ride all day, Roczen is 15 and he is already on a similar level. If you are a top guy in GPs you will be a top guy in the AMA and vice versa.
We can all stop giving opinions now.
Pourcel has more explosive speed as Musquin. But I think Musquin better fits the longer racetime.
And Roczen? We all have to wait till the end of the season, to know something.
@Mccread: Roczen is twice as fast as all the other riders .... He could even win blindfolded on a 80cc against reed, stewart, dungey, pourcel.
Pit Row
I just said I think he could run with him and maybe win it wouldn't surprise me if he did, it wouldn't surprise if Pourcel won either, or even Musquin.

Sounds like amazement and admiration to me.
Roczen is nearly as good as CP right now outdoors and he is only 15 I still think he would have a chance at beating him on his day.
CP is unreal but so is Ken.
Could he beat Christophe...?
CP is a a few years ahead of them, in about 3 years Roczen and Musquin should have caught up to CP.
We'll see/
