JA-21 Over it?

I’m a Tomac fan first, but El Hombre is in a close second. This hasn’t been a banner season for him by any means. I feel like reading into his body language, he’s over it. Has a baby at home, won a championship and plenty of races, and keeps having unprompted crashes. I hope he hangs around a bit longer but totally get if he wants to roll out and relax a bit with the family.

I think he’s over supercross for this season, but Pulp said he’s been motoing down for outdoors

I’m also a big fan and am bummed that he’s not more in the mix. I think he’ll be back stronger next year.

He’s definitely over SX hopefully we see a new guy outdoors, but history has shown that if a championship isn’t going his way he just isn’t into it.

The way he was holding his right arm made me cautious. Hopefully no injury.

As rough as his night was, he still beat his teammate.

He put on a strong charge to close out the race too.

speaking of, tf happened to Adam? Qualifying times and heat races are always exceptional but then he rides around in 6-10 for the mains.

Is there talk of JA not resigning with Kawasaki? Where will he go?

I think he would do well on Honda but there’s no room there. However the new KX is coming on soon, so that might be the change he needs. It’s all mental for JA. When that part is right, he’s a threat for #1.

Triumph is only racing 250s next year.

Kawasaki do not have much choice but to stick with AC and Anderson for 24. 

Anderson sure looks over it and that can't sit well at Kawasaki management level. They don't write checks for riders to ride half assed.

Anderson lost the championship early when he let other riders live in his head. Until that fatal flaw goes away he will always fail at living up to his potential. He really is his worst enemy.

No slight on Chiz, but he was beating both JA and AC for a good part of the start of the main. That’s an example of the green machine’s season to date.
I don’t know, but I get the impression it’s not a happy camp over at Kawi.

I dont get this whole idea of him redeaming himself in MX. When has Anderson ever done anything notable outdoors? He has always been better at SX

How could it be? You have two highly paid Factory riders (one that won seven races last year) on a proven platform that won multiple championships until someone made Eli mad enough to move on.  Both of them are 5-10th place guys despite an injury depleted field.  I’d sure be pissed if I was the guy cutting those checks.
