If he gets this, he may feel like he's checked something off and will go to the 450 class. His record in Vegas at the Showdown is strong and he's got the points lead (although not a big one) so he can be a bit safe while Dylan has to send it a bit, you know? If Adam doesn't get the title the whole 2020 silly season could be thrown into chaos as he may want to stay down one more year to try and get a title before he moves up. Matthes: I like Adam to bring this home but as usual with him, he'll make it more interesting than it should be. If it's a toss-up heading into the desert, I have to like his chances based on his 20 wins. Cianciarulo has won Vegas the last two years and seems to jell with that dirt and environment. Thomas: I think AC92 will find a way to halt the Ferrandis charge. I really don't expect something like that to happen but if it does YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST). Hey! Remember what happened to Jason Anderson's wheel last year? He lost a ton of points! That could happen to Webb! It's not over! I'd be so smart if this somehow actually happened.

I'll make fun of everyone who said it was over, I'll forever taunt that I was the ONLY one who knew a 21-point lead with three races to go wasn't enough. Jason Weigandt: If I said something crazy will have to happen and Webb won't win this title, and then something crazy does happen and he actually doesn't win it, I'll look like a damned genius. What an amazing development that will be, right? He's ridden great, gotten just about all the starts when he's needed to, and then caught the usual breaks along the way as well. So ET3 might pull off another win and bring this thing a little closer but in the end, it's Webb's to take home. Steve Matthes: Well, this weekend is Eli's home race, it's at altitude, and he'll be feeling good. Webb is staying consistent and will be able to cruise into his first 450 title in Vegas. There has been opportunity after opportunity, but they just aren't being seized. I don't even think it's been so much what Webb has done lately, it's been more about the other guys leaving points on the table. Jason Thomas: I have been fighting it, but Webb has this locked up. Here’s what Jason Thomas, Steve Matthes, and Jason Weigandt had to say. West Region points leader Adam Cianciarulo has the points lead over Monster Energy/Yamalube/Star Racing Yamaha’s Dylan Ferrandis, but Ferrandis has two-straight wins and momentum going into Denver.įor this week’s 3 on 3, we corralled our guys and asked them who they thought would win their respective class and why. In the 250SX East Region, Monster Energy/Pro Circuit Kawasaki’s Austin Forkner went down with a knee injury during qualifying in Nashville and saw his gap closed by GEICO Honda’s Chase Sexton and Monster Energy/Yamalube/Star Racing Yamaha’s Justin Cooper. Only three rounds remain in the 2019 Monster Energy AMA Supercross season and in 450SX Red Bull KTM’s Cooper Webb has a 21-point gap over teammate Marvin Musquin and Monster Energy Kawasaki’s Eli Tomac, who are tied for second in points.
