Was Stewart revving his bike excessively in the air?
Josh Grant was squirrely at the start.
Mike Alessi is his own worst enemy.
Reed helped Stewart shut the door on Dungey.

I absolutely love the Stewart Gopro videos.It's great to watch it on TV then next day watch bubba's view of it. It's not edited it's start to finish. Or should I say start to crash. But we all know he will win and it will be fun to watch the Gopro version of it. I'm looking forward to the Villopoto Stewart Gopro battle.

I like them a lot and hope GoPro and James do these the rest of year/series? I like how they edit out the parts where James is by himself and cut to him diceing with people.

It seems at Phoenix he hooked bars with Hanny and did the triple when there was a rider down, sounded like the guy he passed(that didnt tripple) yelled at him as he flew by.

These sx gopro videos really show how close quarters the raceing is and how just drifting/getting out of shape can lead to collisions.

James sure revs the YZ off jumps.

Love them, they are definitely pretty exciting stuff. I'm a little surprised that JS lets them show everything.

I wonder when they're gonna start using the live feed function of the Gopro and adding footage to the live broadcasts from the helmet cams...

Watching the Oakland James Gopro you could see him setting up the pass on Chad beautifully. Outside to inside over the little double and then he made that Pirelli bite a bit better then Chads dunlop for the pass, nice!

One thing the camera didnt show at all was RV hounding him. I couldnt even tell by how James was riding that RV was right behind him the whole time.

Does anybody else think that James was riding defensivly? He just looked like a guy that was stalking Chad the whole time to me.

I wish I could understand what him a J-Bone were saying to each other...couldnt quite make it out.

James about runs over one of the guys protecting Chad. Then he seemed to slow down as he went by, as if to crash gaze at the carnage.
