At this point that might be their cheapest option. They already don’t have the workforce to run the series

It's kinda arrogant to even think about racing dirt bikes until they get a better handle on things.

Maybe, but to be honest at this point we all need a little distraction to keep our spirits up.

Not worth risking the health of all involved to make it happen. Things will be worse by then.

At this point, the cure is officially worse than the disease.

Spoiler alert, that's not going to happen without getting a lot more people sick. Wish in one hand... sh*t in the other. See which fills up faster.

Edit: the post I quoted seems to have disappeared.

The moto industry could save itself a lot of anguish by not having all of these press releases and discussions about updated schedules. Things are evolving SO fast across the world, especially in N America. Just look how much has changed in 14 days....Just say "racing is suspended indefinitely, once we have information from the state and federal governments that we can resume we will communicate an updated schedule".

Who thinks outdoors starts in June in Florida as scheduled?

I wonder if the pessimists will be disappointed if the scientists are able to find something to battle the virus?

That sounds like a logical statement. More should think this way.

The ticket seller may be cancelling because all new ticket sales will have a warning disclaimer on them. Anyone who bought tickets prior to this shutdown would have legal standing to sue if they contracted Chinese Flu at the race.

I don't believe it until Feld issues a press release.

The Olympics in Japan are canceled in July of this year.

They canceled the Isle of Man in June

They already canceled SX and Hangtown.

I think running MX nationals by Mid June is just pie in the sky. I think it is much worse than we were led to believe last month, hence not the seriousness of the situation. Now it seems seriously affecting all of us everywhere.

Not a domesdayer, but lots of lives changed since last week. For good, time will tell.......

This is not the end of the world, and we will get through this, sooner than you think.

Cancelled and postponed are different things.

So why not start the series again after outdoors like Guy B said. And make the final round a triple crown event the same weekend that Monster cup runs ? Just take out Monster cup and make it the final round of the series. Maybe if we are luck a couple of rounds before as well. Nothing is going to start up again until June if we are lucky.

Ah well, some people like to see how far they can stick a toe over the line.

Sometimes they find out.
