My opinion only...I think that RV has found a way to make a ton of money doing something that he doesn't particularly like to do. I've formed this opinion over the last few years as I see him getting little or no pleasure out of racing. I'm not saying that He never enjoyed the sport but I think that the pressure of getting him to where he is got to him. I'm sure that he is eagerly looking forward to retirement after he shows his stuff in that other series, with great success I hope.
On the other hand, here is a short list of racers that , I think, race dirt bikes for the pure joy of it: Trey Canard, John Dowd, Travis Pastrano,and Davey Millsaps. There are many others.

I wish I could retire early from my job also.

Lookey here Fred, He was brought up racing and pushed and pushed hard by his parents to succeed in racing.. in fact it tore his family apart and cost him what many of us take for granted, which is a normal upbringing and social life during our teens. So, at some point he realized he didn't have any other skills and he was good at racing so why not give his all. Which he's done to the fullest and kicked everyone ass.
Is he over it, sounds like he was and now he's doing the unthinkable and leaving a number one plate on the table to race Europe. Looks like he's finally having some of that "FUN" that keyboard clowns like yourself demand he has to satisfy them.. WTF?
And yet, here you are, starting thread to "pick on Poto".. if you were here I'd take that cigar out of your mouth and shove it up your ass.
Have a nice day
We both know that you need a catchy Title or nobody will look at the post.
I cheered as loud as anyone when I watched TP backflip that 500 at straight rhythm a while back, but watching Poto destroy Glen Helen is about as good as it gets if you are a fan of moto, imho.
And that's what it's about for me... I usually leave when the podium interviews start
Im sure RV can make his own decisions, but when you have been a pro racer for a vast majority of your life, you really cant tell if you enjoy that relative to other things, till you have tried other things.
Would not surprise me if RV disappeared off the radar for a few years, then sees riders winning who he knows he can wax, and re-lights the candle, come back for another few championships.
Once a racer, always a racer.

Looks to me like he might be finding that fire again, we should all hope so.
