Craig takes the influencer spot tho.. interesting choice for husky
What’s there to say other then he quit at A1 end of story
Reminiscent of the Stingrays career…
Reading through the lines of him pulling off and no media talking about it I would think he had a mental meltdown at A1 after dropping through the ranks and he pulled off. I could imagine media and his team showing some respect for mental health and agreeing not to talk about it…
Nice guy some hopefully he rebounds

I agree. If RJ has a great season and Craig continues to flounder they will pass on renewing him and move RJ up for sure.
this attitude is why the bro-moto-media can continue to ignore stories. can you imagine if an NBA player just walked off the court? the press would be all over him demanding an answer. instead we give riders a pass simply because the bro-media doesn't want to hurt feelings and get access cut off.
While I'm an advocate for mental health checks, this is a bit exempt from that. This is a professional who is getting paid to perform. Reporting on positive/negative performances is always going to happen. If ones mental state isn't equipped for that then they shouldn't line up.
As far as I gathered from various interviews and by him dancing around the subject not answering and just saying it was a bad situation and he'll be better going forward it looks like he spat the dummy out riding around at the back of the pack and just quit. No bike problem just a him problem. Not a great look.
He’s busy working on a new vlog trying to get a show on TLC.
Craig is the epitome of a "mental" rider which will make or break you. Hope he gets it figured out.
This is true but Husqvarna is the one paying him not us, he doesn't have to tell us shit. If Husqvarna is satisfied with his reasoning or not its their employee.
He busted his ass and had Barcia and someone else land on him in the first corner then proceeded to race the whole race without goggles. He was in pretty good spirits in the vlog throughout the day and even after the race when you consider how it went for him. I dont think his sponsors were questioning his effort last week so that seems a show of good faith on his end after whatever happened at A1.
I completely agree, evaluating his performance is between him and Husky. I was responding to that previous comment. I don't think we should call for his firing or anything like that.
I think all those safe years at factory connection playing grab ass really set the tone for craigs shitty attitude & approach. Ever since that team gave Malcom the fuck you after winning a title for them, & rewarded the son in law instead. Im talking shit. Its not what you know little kids its who you know
He should of just tucked the front, in lieu of throwing in the towel.
Did you watch San Fran? He didn't even wait for the first corner.
RJ looked great on the 450 didn't he?
Would love to see him tick off the 250 championship this year and get a fair shake at the 450's next year.
There are talks of him doing more 450 races this year.
Ironic

The last rider who should have a brand called "Never ever give up" is CC, he seems to be the king of pulling off and giving up.
He is a very good 250F SX rider for battling against kids. Signed CC for two years was a mistake from HVA. I m also tired of that Jagger thing everywhere to be honest. But, I respect him for going to MXoN with basically no time on the bike because his injurie. Props to him. Shane got 4 last week, his gate jump is very good, he finish races and he doesn't ride a factory HVA so it's already way better than CC. Again, nothing wrong against CC but the reality is that facts doens't car about feelings.
Anyone hear anything about him maybe retiring? The rumors are out there.
Yes, I'm pretty sure from what I have been told that 24 ( this year) is Craig's last full season racing.
There is a life after Moto.....
Sadly, after last week it does seem his best option. I watched the race vlog that Mav posted JUST because I had to know about the onesie. The whole thing made me think I was watching Mission Impossible. They laid it on thick. I only realized it was not when the IMF didn't win.
I lost respect for Christian when he would go to OCRC and just let his kid run a muck like it was a daycare for him. Second a couple years back on a checking in Swap video he was eating breakfast at a restaurant and on camera he made fun of the waitress called her mustachio cus she must of had a little mustache. Not to her face but imagine if someone saw the video and it was your family member. Hope they spit in his food next time. Whoever thinks his wife is hot better give me what they are smokin 😂
He's an extremely good 450 rider better then on a 250, that's been pretty common knowledge for what over a decade. It's why he's got so many fill in 450 rides. I think if he stays healthy in 3-4 weeks people will be singing a different tune.
Anything new?
He told ML in a roundabout way that he just gave up and pulled off.
I thought someone said his rope got caught in the spokes???
Is it too early to hit the panic button? 😬
Another DNF...why?
