Anyone heard how he's doing? He looked pretty rocked after his crash.

Sexton has David Bailey written all over his riding style...smooth, no real wasted energy. Hope he heals up fast and comes back strong.

His progression as a rider compared to Austin Forkner is about 10 fold. Remember when he was struggling with Forkner and Austin giving him crap saying the only reason he won the title was due to Austin getting hurt........Ya, about that........not quite as bad as the spat and contrast between JLaw and Dungey, but comparable.

They showed a really crappy replay and he cross-rutted through those sand doubles before the finish and got spit off completly sideways landing on his bike.

I think part of Sexton's progression is his growth and maturing. He's getting man strength and endurance now that he really didn't have in the lites class.

I find this thought perplexing because he seems hell bent on ruining his career before ever getting going. The dude needs to stay off the ground!

He’s young, a bit of a rookie on the 450...probably has some weight on his shoulders being Roczen’s wing man on HRC Honda, and with the expectations that brings. I think he’ll be fine in the long run, though.

Holy shit.... Did he step into the boxing ring recently. That face pic is gnarly.

Chase needs to spend the rest of this year stacking laps. He's plenty capable but he needs to think long term imho.

X2. He started the year firing on all cylinders and looked like he was going to get a win early in the season. Now after the injury I don't know if he's forcing things to try and get back to where he was.

He looks like the real life version of Mr. Potatohead. Wait...sorry can’t say that anymore.

When in doubt... GAS IT.
Worked in the old days, would have worked this day too.
That sand section shouldn't have taken out a rider of his caliber.

Listening to the Steve Matthes show today, Steve commented that Chase was pouring blood after the crash. Sounded pretty gruesome.

He also reminds me of KW as well. Unfortunately he’s learning some hard lessons in the 450 class.

Yeah the body language after the crash made me think he hit his face hard. Glad it's not more serious.
