Roczen was railing.

Surprised it hasnt been mentioned that all 3 motos were won by 350 ktms which also went 1-2 in the final race of the day when the track was roughest!

Also did anyone see in the 2nd moto when Roczen on his 250 passed 4 people including barcia in the space of about 10 seconds?

Not targeting you specifically, but I have seen this several times..
Usa - 9,629,091km2
Europe - 10,180,000km2
Not really a "Size" problem in my opinion, more of the style tracks you are raised on.

You failed twice in one post!

1. The area has nothing to do with it. You could have an area of 100,000,000km2 but if no one lives there then there arent going to be any top level motocross riders.

2. That is the size of Europe. Europe doesnt have an MXoN team because it is not a country. There are 50 countries in Europe.

The population is what matters and the population of America is massive. Yes it's an old arguement but it's fact. America has a larger pool of talented riders to choose from which means they never have a weak member on their team whereas most of the euro teams have at least one weak member.

Yes, I know Europe is a continent, but where does someone mention the countries of Europe? They just say Europe.
But, if it is the population size, Europe would still be larger, because it is a continent.
Usa - 311,591,917
Europe - 738,199,000

Again, not a size problem, but a where. And, like you said, the pool of riders.

Either way it was a good race.

Funny how so many people on vital and such say "Europe beat USA", only belgium and germany did... Same as in other sports, when the team wins its "We won" when the team loses, its "They lost"...

SO FREAKING SICK! GERMANY!

Population USA - 314,483,000
Population Germany - 81,844,000
Population Belgium - 10,839,905
Population Netherlands - 16,751,323

USA has way bigger population than all the countries who finished around them in the MXON, now I'm not saying that the USA failed because they have more civilians because I have to admit that in Belgium and the Netherlands are more racetracks each square mile compared to the USA. But if this is the discussion what we're going to have, we also can ask ourselfs why China didn't enter the MXON OR why China doesn't have ANY good motocross rider.. It's just a never ending discussion.. I think all the top 5 countries did very well, and I must admit I didn't thought USA was going to do so well in that deep sand as they did. To everyone, be proud of your country and just shut the f up!

F*** YEAH!!!! First ever german victory in MXDN History, unbelievable. Props to Marcus Schiffer for an outstanding performance ( I expected Nagl and Roczen to do well...)

Just to share my opinion on the size thing. I think if you want to compare the population, you should do Europe and the USA. Reason being that all of the pros in Europe race all of the tracks in Europe. So, someone who lives in Spain, Belgium, Germany, or any country in Europe has ridden at Lommel before. Also, I think it was Buddy that said this, but he made a good point. America usually has a team full of good riders. Then there are countries like Italy that have a rider like Carioli and the two other guys that aren't really near his pace.

I never did like Baggett or Barcia.

I don't think they like you too.

Yeah. Pretty much the only US riders I do like are Dungey, Stewart, and Carmichael, though, so, yeah. Dungey, Tomac, and Villopoto would have been the dream team, though.

I'm in love with Tomac's riding style

The dream team for USA:

Ricky Carmichael - MX1
Ryan Villopoto - MX2 (Clone)
Ryan Villopoto - MX3
