This breaks it down a bit clearer.

Did FS1 not want Supercross back? Every race was live on FS1 if memory serves.

There was a few races on FS2, and a couple tape delays, all of the FS1 races were live or near-live (hour delay at most)

Not sure if FOX wanted to keep it, but they have had alot of content go to other networks lately (Supercross, IMSA, UFC to name a few)

A1 was pretty interesting with the rain, the battle between Bam Bam & Wilson was fun to watch (along with the back & forth catch / chase between them, Malcolm & Ken Roczen)

Highlights for those who missed the races

It was amazing how most of the riders stayed upright while going all-out on such a slippery track. Looking forward to round two! Roczen appears to be back in top form. What a great comeback story.

Yeah, when the skies opened in time for 250SX LCQ, I thought the times would drop off significantly.

Well, it did, but some riders were able to land triples and rhythm sections as if the track's dry.

Leaving the stadium under heavy rain, however, sucks. Want an idea of how bad? On my way home, I saw an overturned pickup at an onramp on the freeway I was on (CA-57). You can make your own southern California drivers in inclimate conditions joke here.

Malcolm got his bell rung pretty hard tonight in the feature, report on his condition below

Jason Anderson out for a good chunk of the season following a testing crash

I've only watched the first race so far, but why was Zack Osborne not racing in Anaheim? I don't think it was ever mentioned during the broadcast.

He was out injured but might be returning soon.

Wonder how James Stewart is doing these days? He, more than most racers, has to be a bit concerned about CET at this point in his life. IIRC he did a lot of crashing in his career and I remember him getting knocked out completely on several occasions. And who knows how many times it happened earlier in his career or when he was off-camera.

That was all back in the day before any concussion protocol or even most of us in the sport knowing what CET was and its long-term effects.

Stefan Everts was in a bad shape in december but looking better now:

they done went mud boggin tonight in San Diego

The entire field from both 450's and 250's are extremely upset with FELD after the riders received chemical burns from a agent used during track prep as a attempt to dry up the surface in last Saturday's race at San Diego. A good chunk of the bikes are completely totaled too.

Whoever at Feld thought that was a good idea needs to be fired. Just make the riders deal with the mud.
