With all of the rounds of the 2015 Rockstar Energy Drink Motocross Nationals presented by Motovan taking place on Sundays. The atmosphere at the track on Fridays is always very relaxed as all of the teams are moving in and getting set up. It is also sometimes a great opportunity to catch the riders and team personal in a very laid back mood as they really don’t have anything to worry about until Saturday.
