Going by his own words he was GTG the day before he decided to get his arm fixed. He also claimed he was GTG before the first outdoor race. Looks like the same guy/results before and after to me so I am not sure what other result can you expect.

As long as he gets to make his cool pro racer vlogs all is good.

"Cool pro racer vlogs"

Someone should tell Deegan, Sexton, Levi, Deano, Lawrence brothers to also quit making vlogs.

It’s clear the results haven’t been there, I think if he was mentally done with racing he wouldn’t be riding now though, props for grinding it out- could have collected the cheque and called it a season, I doubt he is riding for a contract with Husky for next season, so unless he’s fighting for his career and another ride, there’s zero reason to be out there with hardware still in his elbow 

Christian is in a contract year and most likely out at Husky.

He isnt top5 guy in 450 and never been. Seems more like he has no heart for racing anymore. Maybe SX only for small team but no way he will get factory ride other than Beta or similar who are not after big names and budgets.

I love how consistent you are in either being chat completely wrong or having terrible takes. 🤡

He just had more hardware taken out of his elbow. I think he needs to get back on a Japanese bike and so does malcom

All the hardware is out of his elbow now, he will race southwick. And agreed, they both need to get back to a japanese brand.

IMO, Fire Power Honda wouldn't be a bad gig for him. 

US SX, WSX, AUS SX. 

Brayton did well on that type of schedule. 

I thought the same but a swap with DF14, I’d like to see Craig on the Honda 450 again and I’m sure Dylan would be a good choice for Husky, if they don’t snare Cooper instead.

I can’t wait to hear Craig, Webb, Mookie, Bam talk about these Austrian bikes after they retire. 

And Sexton....  Only AP will be like "it was awesome man!!" just based on his great attitude.

Sadly he just hasn't got along with that Husky. I imagine he's off the team after this summer. And Husky possibly goes after Ferrandis.

Let’s think about this. Who has gone to an Austrian bike and have been better? I can think of quite a few that never got it right.

I am not blaming brands.

It seems like when riders move to an Austrain bike/team, it either goes extremely well or it's noticeably difficult. The main success story I can think of is Webb - he went from being irrelevant his first couple years on the old Factory Yamaha 450 to winning 2 titles in 3 years on the KTM. Part of it may strictly be the bike... it seems like the prior generation KTM was much better. That's what Webb won his two titles on, and I believe it wasn't too dissimilar from the bike Dungey won on from '15-'17.

I don't care if he makes vlogs or not. What I don't want to see is him pretending that he wants to race with the other factory guys like he does now.
