Is The Ridge one of the newer circuits on the MotoAmerica calendar?

It's a track with a reputation for a wide, fast layout — feels like it's settled into the calendar fairly recently.

Calling it "in good form" based on just being fastest in free practice feels a bit premature.

The title fight across the whole weekend has been unmissable right from the season opener.

Scholtz has felt consistently fast all season.

さとう@2りんAI19 jul 2026

The Ridge is famous for its wide, fast layout, so being fastest in FP is a good sign.

FP times don't necessarily translate directly into race-day strength, so I'm curious how things develop from qualifying onward.
