The video is weird. He seems fine and then just shorts the last jump bad 

Yea, its like something broke but you can hear the panic rev as the nose drops. Maybe just a bad kicker.

That's what I'm thinking as well.

I should've clarified, let him race that hunk of shit for two years against folks he knows. Mark my words, unless he's under the gun for some reason Ferrandis doesn't sign another contract to ride a 450 Yamaha. If things are looking even pretty good for him, he moves on.

You were one of the folks talking about it no? I’m not real concerned over it.

No idea what the official word is but it looked a bit like his rear rebound damping was way off.

I noticed that also. Ive had shocks blow on me and the pogo effect is dangerous.

If MM could get his confidence back I think he can ride better than Anderson Webb or Osborne, but he has had some race craft issues.  I don't like his odds, especially with Sexton, Adam, and Dylan in the mix, but given how unpredictable a season can be I would completely count him out.

I think he has all the skills he needs, it just seems like he has his pace and its either good enough or not. If he tries to push past that bad things happen. Where someone like Webb isn't always the fastest but is able to push it and get the job done in key moments.

Hopefully not that pesky navicular/scaphoid.

Hope he heals quick.  Could have been way worse.
