Brian is one smart dude when it comes to brand marketing but telling his kid to say all of the America stuff is really coming back to bite them. It will blow over and everyone will eventually move on but I kind of feel bad that Haiden is getting all the heat tbh.

Growing pains. We were all young once and said things that we didn’t really understand.

The problem is your implying a meaning of those two sources that does not exist. Your implying Star told the riders they where not allowed to go and saying I went tinfoil.

 

Unfortunately for you doing so seems to lack common sense. Oh the irony.

He's a young dude who's had a big rookie season (which is still going), in his instance I'd say fair enough if he's just not feeling it or doesn't want the pressure or wants to focus on his first full season.

I don't see why anyone needs to deny that's the case though, kid doesn't wanna go 😂

You can't send multi-million dollar athletes to MXoN on a team Mexico budget. The teams also have 1-2 extra races to pay for this year. Maybe the budget simply isn't there for this race? Maybe they don't want to or can't pull extra funds from corporate to send a team that has no real chance at winning?

He also covered the Ferandis deal, said that Star told the French team how much it would cost them and that was probably a factor in him not getting picked...

As long as they field the best team they can we will get behind them 110%. That's what racing is all about, doing the best you can with what you have. If we get beat we got beat. We where expected to get beat in '85 also when we had trouble fielding a 125 rider.

Yes, you can. That's a choice. That's why we'll be mocked relentlessly if we don't send a team. All of the spoiled primadonna stereotypes confirmed. 

This race happens every year. Budget for it in a responsible way. A lot of years you won't end up going and now your budget has a cushion. This isn't complicated.

Lars van Berkel came to the states with a gear bag and some suspension, ended up racing a few nationals and a couple of Canadian nationals, loved every minute of his vlogs, there is no reason it can't be done in reverse. 

I remember an IG story from Kullas last year that he was wearing his moto boots in airport to save weight in luggage to allow helmet, some gear and suspension.

Osborne and Mike Brown have just been in UK and Italy, racing vintage bikes. I'm sure they would both stay on and ride if asked, they wouldn't win but sure as hell they'd try their hearts out ....and they'd be crowd favourites wherever they finished. 

 

Told ya! Tongue

Respect, Zacho.

Viewing his tweet from UK gives you the time it was posted at UK time. He was in England a few weeks ago for VMXDN and staying at Mel Pocock's place but as far as I know went back to US.

It would be neat if he gets to ride MXoN and VMXDN in the same year, that must be a first. He's the real Captain America.

"mocked relentlessly"??

By whom exactly? a few internet tough guys from England?   WGAF.  Outside of this shit show dumpster fire VitalMX thread, no one I know is mocking anyone.

All the guys over there I talk to want to see Americans race in France, but they get it, shit happens sometimes. Remember, American racers have up to 31 contracted events to race this year, MXGP guys have 19. 

Relax, like somebody else said, its only a dirt bike race...

I think you're forgetting the national rounds they race here in Belgium, Netherlands, France, Germany, Italy, Spain,... It's not just the GP's.

Some of them even compete 1 or 2 rounds at multiple championships as a guest rider.

Zako,

give doc wobb a call ,  tell him  you need him as a manager and  3 X 2st bikes (he'll have some left overs from the vxdn)  for you / brownie/Carson brown,go ride with  no pressure and have fun 

Problem solved 😁

You're have all the nations behind you then 

Ain't gonna happen, but would be a massive FU to all those who dont want to go,  or teams that have pulled the plug

Enlighten us on the total number of races that the French team riders have raced outside of MXGP this year as they are the favored team...I'm really just curious as I see this argument all the time but it's never backed up with facts....and a fact for your side...I can't think of one top rider in the US that has raced all 31 races....
