2018 IRONMAN NATIONAL | 450 FASTEST QUALIFIERS
Can Marvin Musquin make something happen today?
In a mud race anything can happen. A 20 points lead like Eli Tomac’s can be cut down in one moto. Crashes and bike failures are more common in the mud. It is also possible that Tomac can win the championship in the first moto if he scores more than five points over Marvin Musquin as he already has a 20 point lead coming into the race.
The talk of the pits is veteran Chad Reed showing up to race the last round of the season for the Autotrader Suzuki team. Reed qualified 7th in the mud.
