There should be a rule that if a rider gets taken out like that, and his bike is to wrecked to continue, then the rider should be allowed to use his backup bike. It wasnt Baubiers falt that he ended up on the floor.

Thanks so much for making this available! You have renewed my interest in road racing in the US. Go Hayes and Herrin!
Where on earth is the crowd? This is the premier motorcycle class in the US, at one of the most famous circuits in the world. Massively talented grid putting it all on the line for a handful of spectators. Why don’t Americans get behind motorcycle racing the same way they do for their other (arguably less exciting) sports?
CamP ran over to check on B after the crash, great to see the comradare of these guys at such a high competetive level. Classy dudes.

He ran over because it was his fault, he gunned it to the front, too much speed into a fresh paved corner and tucked the front and crashed in front of the whole pack.

*Only Jake Gagne would look at the split, see a 2.7-second lead and say: Shoot, I better go faster!*
was there in 2002 for superbikes awesome
So it 14:53, Cam P and B's bikes are laying on the side of the track, Beubier is still on the ground, Cam P has run over to him to make sure he's ok, not a CORNER WORKER in sight, and the "safety car" (who in every series that i know of, has a medical doctor on board) and they just drive by like nothing has happened?? WTF ??

There's a reason why MotoGP and WSBK doesn't race there anymore (other than money). It's because the track is unsafe for motorcycle racing. And I aint talkin about "bagger" racing, which, IMHO is not worth watching. There is no grass, no "pebble" run offs, just dirt and regular old American gravel. That had to hurt. Good thing MA only runs once a month, CB will have plenty of time to heal before the next round...which is where and when???

i think it has a lot to do with the fact that america as a whole is a "car" country... there are more and more bike riders every year, but as a general whole a lot of americans are scared of motorcycles... so even tho its a very exciting sport to watch, it would take a cultural change in the country to adopt more and more motorcycles for it to naturally switch to something people enjoy watching like nascar. I personally would love to attend one of these events but it would also take some traveling, time off work, and money spent i dont have the luxury to spend.. motorcycles as a whole are expensive, and participating in track days even more so... and then you gotta factor in the freedom to be able to follow it... its just expensive.. its a rich guys sport...

They need to get real racers in the series. Petrucci for just one season, and then to have CB back, only to be taken out by an overzealous idiot is no way to increase your fan base. Not to mention the fact that motorcycles in this country are now hated, thank you Hollywood and squids.

If america had the same stepping stones as Europe for engine size people would be less scared. In merica it’s all about hp 🙄
Gagne, Baubier and Josh Herrin are the top three riders battling for this year's superbike title . gagne probably has the edge being he is on a familiar bike and cam and josh on new bikes and still probably still getting used to there bikes and every racetrack they go to not having data . That gagne has had from previous year. Good luck to all competitors this weekend for a safe race
Great race but sad to see 2 Cams go down! Happy for my brorther PJ Jacobsen!
Thanks You Tube and moto america
The start was funny, just Jake by himself. That pass by on PJ on lap 4 around the outside of turn 1 was next level. That move takes a huge set of βαιιΖ
Great race.
If it wasn't for Ritchie missing the sighting lap, and having to start dead last, he would have DEFINITELY been a player- tune in tomorrow and you'll see
That dust is impossible to keep it away from the asphalt... Even a little wind could cause a disaster like this. This problem should be fixed. This is the best track I like more. Regards!
This is the only “Moto” class where a Ducati isn’t always a winner,and a winner by far ,making the races boring ….well not boring but you know before the race starts the Ducati is gonna be in first unless there’s an unusual event …and unless that event crashes the Ducati he’ll still at the very least be on the podium if not back in first if a lot of laps are left ….. what’s the difference in MotoAmerica compared to the other “premiere class”(for lack of a better term I say premiere) leagues that make all the bikes in MotoAmerica have a chance at winning ? Where the rider is the main difference not the brand that makes Moto racing winners ….and it’s awesome! I’m starting to see there’s still different strengths and weaknesses for each brand but they equal out better here in Moto America … bravo MotoAmerica ,for making road racing competitive again ,for putting these races on KZread quickly (& or live at times), and for doing it all at the highest level of quality… sorry for blathering on ,am a older biker who feels like a two time winner with fInding MotoAmerica … 1: MotoAmerica races are more easily available, with many divisions to follow .2: for setting it all up for true competitiveness between manufacturers and in doing so attracting great riders ….and bonus ,the coverage is top notch …….now that I can barely find MotoGP or wsbk races a week after the fact ,and in those leagues it’s the race for 2nd and 3rd to watch because Ducati is the guaranteed winner ….MotoAmerica gave me a true competition to watch and fully get into !

Its great too watch the Moto America®,is there no track limits ?? i see the line too turn in in one of the corners,goes wide over the white line,its ok,in moto gp & wsbk,, is often the result over the finishline, not the final reults,cause a few riders have bearly go over with a milimeter, or two , and get penelized after the races , this rule wrecking the race,its ok with clearly over track limits, but those milimeter monocular🥸 is not ok, Thank you for many good times with the telly 🏁🏁🏁🏆🏍

I'm glad these races are posted here, but wtf happened to this series!?! I was at Laguna Seca today after having missed it for the last several years (was an annual event suite ticket holder in the AMA, WSBK, and MotoGP years) and today felt more like a Harley rally than a road racing event. No Honda, no Kawasaki, no Suzuki and really limited Ducati and Yamaha vendor or racing presence. accessory vendor row was sparce, as well. The racing itself is cool, but this event used to be a NorCal mecca for sportbike riders and now it's just a sea of baggers in the pits and the parking lots. I'm not hating on Harleys, but there's already so many events for American Iron. Anyway, I was there an hour and after I saw the very few paddock and vendor areas that weren't bagger related I bailed and just watched the Superbike races from home. (Thank you for that!) Air-cooled "technology" just doesn't interest me. It's sad motorcycle racing in the US has lost its audience, at the highest levels it's so much more exciting than many other forms of motorsport.
Jeez, the National Anthem 😳
I need to see Hannas face more. Fast forward button broken? 😂
Motoamerica needs to start using those yellow flags more. Sucks to have multiple races end under these conditions

👏👏👏👍👍👍🤗🤓🤓🤓
Not bad but lets be real besides Cam B and maybe Josh Herrin nobody come close to challenging Jake G for top spot. Also the skill level of the top 6 riders is far greater than the riders from 7-16 which kinda makes this series slightly predictable.
Dejavu Valentino rossi😢
Jack gakny is no 1 👍👍
Bummer!!
Wt@.....is with MA and freakin red flags....I get the first one with Cam & Cam.....but the second one? Easily could have had waving yellows, and let the race continue.....they've been dong this at almost every event. A potential, great last two lap battle, between Josh and PJ we were denied.....come on guys....the season is turning into a snooze fest outside of Atlanta...
Yamaha is the best the power 👍👍👍👍
Oh and btw, Peterson was WAAAAY outta line on that low/high side. He had no business taking the hole shot there... he had nowhere to go, was out of control and risked the safety of other riders. That dude should be suspended for the next round. That was NOT a racing incident. Inexcusable. He is a veteran racer, he should know better. If someone had done that to him, he'd be calling for their head.
Finally the racing is more than one bike constantly winning.. now if we can just get some good commentary

I’m not saying there and no legitimate uses of the red flag obviously, but, as time goes on … I dunno.

Come on man don't ruin a good thing by acting stupid. Could have crappy coverage like wsbk
Is it necessary to announce every sponsor every time they say the name of the track and bike and rider? Is that in a contract somewhere? It is extremely annoying. I don't need to hear it. And why did Escalante have to start from the back of the grid after the red flag? The announcers did not explain that at all. Just cuz he had a tire warmer issue? Once again, the announcers are HORRIBLE. Please replace them. And NOT with Roger Lee Hayden.
Well that was a total waste
GLAD I dident go to the motoamerica race. SAME OLD RESULTS. Gage. BORING and now they let world superbike rider FORTES demote down and ruin the other class
It was a careless and overly aggressive start by Cam Peterson… at the end of the day he took out someone who is in clear contention for the championship this season and he is not. The blame has to be on Cam Peterson for that overly aggressive start and running onto the dirty part of the track. Careless and dumb. He should face a grid place penalty after that for tomorrow.
So stupid the show 3ed 4th 5th place though the hole show
