Star Yamaha 250 East/West rider choices

Maybe the guys listed on east have been hurt or are hurt so maybe thats why only 2 on west?

Robertson is injured.

So is 1 other either Bennick or romano. They are both rookies so it makes sense for the to go east.  

Enzo prob should have gone west.

Then u have have deegs. Is he ducking? Is it coz his mechanic is injured?

Who knows. But what we do know is donM will come here and back him no matter the situation. 

🤣 truth 

I agree. The plan should be fairly even numbers with top guys on both coast to have a shot at both titles.

Rookies normally go east.

But enzo or 1 of the rookies should have been west to make it 3-4 west/east.

Thought they would want Deegan at A1 for all the hype and the circus that comes with it. Riding west would be good for the fans etc.  

Heard Deegan is not at the pace they expected. Daddy Deeg yanked him from the west coast. In fear of tarnishing their YouTube views. 

I thought Romano was racing west?

I heard the opposite from the same source as you. 

Maybe the Deegz had a training accident that’s been kept quiet and needs more ride time. Hence why he’s on the east coast. 

Or maybe it’s just because the West is fucking stacked 

First ducks the euros at MXON and now ducking the west coast competition 🤷‍♂️…Star will probably come out with a PR saying they had limited budget for West coast so couldn’t support him out there 😂

settle down Don, just a little sarcasm…

Don’t bring a common sense possibility in here and ruin all the wild speculation.  Vital’s got to Vital, you know.

Getting warm. 

I think it is a smart move for him to ride east .  He is young  Has the best shot at winning the Championship  then next year race West and try and win that  then go 450 .     Championships pay   . 

I heard Deegan needs more time to dye his hair and buy Gucci shoes

Star Yamaha has a big team but only deegan is gonna do any good. 

You can always delete this.

Love it!

You can tell the season is about to start. Everyone with inside info wants you to know they have inside info even though they're not going to tell you the info, but you need to know they know and that they're cool kids. Bromoto media will also obediently keep things to themselves and act as de facto PR firms for the teams so they don't lose their seat at the cool kids table, but make sure to tune into their podcast where they'll allude to things in vague ways so you know they know too!!! 

I thought for sure deegs would have lined up at A1, it's the most hyped race of the year. Something must be up for him racing East. Either that or he is ducking the heavy hitters on the west coast

Or maybe it's just because the new Yamaha is not that great right now.

That could be a possibility, the team still had some work to do to get the bike where the riders want it

Tat ink not dry yet.

The discussion about how the west coast is more stacked is always as funny and biaised as a US vs MXGP or MXdN debate. 

But in the end ... in term of numbers, the east is often more upfront when comes up the nationals, or as competitive ... Yes, it may be a little easier to crack the top 10 on the east, but all the top 5-top 8 guys upfront are also big hitters. For instance, people forgot how fast Forkner can be especially in sx and who he already won against pretty easily (Sexton, Jett, Hunter, Ferrandis, etc etc). His stats are still way above RJ, Shimoda, Kitchen or Smith so this may be his year if he has a bit of luck.

Deegs is duckin 

Well there is some rumor that deegan got hurt this winter.

Can ML shime in and confirm that ?

That could be the reason not lining up at A1

Has Robertson survived a full season in his pro career yet?  (honest question)

Dont underestimate Bennick. The kid is fast. I actually thought he was racing West , even tho he lives here in NC. 

Wouldn't be surprised, for some added hype that Deegan gets added to West last minute.

Not gonna lie, I would be stoked to see it!
