2022 San Diego Advanced Analytics

San Diego has one of the more picturesque views from the TV booth and the downtown setting is unique (and a far cry from the Oakland scene). There’s the hustle and bustle of an urban center and all the energy…

2022 Oakland SX Advanced Analytics

2022 is off to a great start, not unlike 2021. The Top 10 is separated by a mere 15 points after two rounds, but the points gap for the Top 10 in 2021 was 14 points. Not much difference between…

ADVANCED ANALYTICS: ALL-TIME RIVALRIES -> LAROCCO VS. KIEDROWSKI

We’re back with another installment of all-time rivalries. This time we’re bringing another old school version, Mike Larocco vs. Mike Kiedrowski. It’s not often that you end up with rivals at the peak of their careers on the same team,…

Advanced Analytics: All-Time Rivalries -> Wardy vs. RJ

ALL-TIME RIVALRIES: Wardy vs. RJ Who was better – Jeff Ward or Rick Johnson? Anyone that grew up watching or racing moto in the 1980’s remembers epic battles for many years. And for one reason or another, you were likely…

2021 Hangtown Advanced Analytics

Dylan Ferrandis is the 12th rider (it’s been done 16 times) to stand on the podium every single round and win the 250/450F championship. He could’ve sat back and coasted at the final round, instead, he charged the entire second…

2021 Fox Raceway 2 Advanced Analytics

Maybe the most profound statement of the season was Dylan Ferrandis standing on the podium by himself after moto 1 while Eli Tomac and Ken Roczen skipped the podium and immediately jumped in ice baths. You could also argue that…

2021 Ironman Advanced Analytics

10 rounds down and 2 to go. Wait – it may be 1 round to go in the 450’s. With his 1-2 for 2nd overall finish, Dylan Ferrandis now has a 50 point lead. If he ties or beats Ken…

2021 Budds Creek Advanced Analytics

With only 3 races remaining and 150 points up for grabs, Dylan Ferrandis has a comfortable 39 point lead over Ken Roczen in the 450 class while Justin Cooper and Jett Lawrence are separated by a mere 3 points in…

Grand National Champions: Advanced Analytics

Back in the early 1980’s there was a concept of a Grand National Champion where they crowned the rider who scored the most points across motocross and supercross. From what I’ve been able to gather, it was only done in…

2021 Unadilla Advanced Analytics

Ken Roczen dominated Unadilla and Phil Nicoletti said it best on the PulpMX Show on Monday night, “he made it look easy”. He was fastest qualifier and set the fastest lap in both motos, got 1 of 2 holeshots, led…

2021 Washougal Advanced Analytics

This week I’ve got a special ‘team manager’ edition. Instead of looking at rider stats, I’m diving into rider lap times. Lap times can be used by team managers to evaluate rider performance throughout a weekend and season. Team managers…

2021 Mid-Series MX Advanced Analytics

It’s been a great season of racing and we’re only halfway through the year. 6 different winners in the 250’s (more on that below) and some incredible battles in the 450’s. That said, it’s Dylan Ferrandis who now has a commanding…
