MONSTER GIRLS

Germany where he finished 2-16 to help his team to 2nd overall� The following year in Latvia Team USA were 3rd overall, this time Eli went 6-3� In 2018, the last time we visited the USA and RedBud, Team USA didn’t make the podium and so this one maybe meant more to Tomac than it did his team mates, especially as this will more than likely be his last MXoN due to a contract that sees him race supercross only in 2023� And let’s not forget Roger DeCoster, the team manager who has guided Team USA to every single one of its 23 MXoN victories� Incredible�

Rounding out the podium were France and Australia and on paper, leading into this year’s event, these were perhaps the three strongest teams and the ones that deserved to be on the box in RedBud�

Prior to the event many felt that Team USA had to win this year, no matter what� They had the strongest team with the top two 450cc riders in the country and Justin Cooper as the best American 250cc rider� Eleven years is a long time between drinks and to go twelve years without a win was almost unthinkable� For the Motocross of Nations to retain its charm as the biggest and best motocross race on the calendar, Team USA needed to win purely because we need to see them in France in 2023 and to see them riding with the #1 #2 #3 on the front of their motorcycles will only add to the hype and the interest in this event� So, congratulations to Team USA on the win and we look forward to seeing you next year when we do it all again at Ernee in France�
