He then won the 3rd stage to Rabat! ??

He is now in 8th overall and first in his class after 6 days! ?

WR450 2 trac is doing well against the Big Bore KTMs in front of him!

Cant wait to watch this years replay coverage on espn and oln.

No real time coverage this year.??

Hi Indy!

I don't have espn or the other you mentioned at home.

Is there any way by which I will be able to view this replay?

Thanks buddy,

I'll have a look at that. ?

I have heard that he does not have the front wheel drive engaged yet, but will be using it in the upcoming sand stages. ?

According to Cycle News he was riding a standard WR450 and not the 2 Trac when he won stage one. ?

My understanding is that the 2 wheel drive kicks in with automatic detection or rear wheel slip. Last year David ran 2 trac every day. They may have removed the front end with a standard front end for some stages this year.

Band width and demand issues seems to be a problem with European web sites coverage ?

Crud... I thought that was the stuff that was on SPEED Channel. It was good, but I've seen it months ago.
