Yeah in theory he should. Also if power is really an issue it should be less of an issue here. 

Weird deal. He's barely faster than Guillod who hasn't changed suspension oil since Pala 😂

I've said since his arrival that he is, at best, the tenth fastest guy in the world. No surprise to me.

Starts well but then goes backwards. It's almost as if he gives up. It's weird. 

Yeah he throws the towel in as soon as the top dogs pass him, it's getting ridiculous.

I bet he's dealing with arm pump more so than a fitness thing.

Am I crazy or are there barely any blue flags around the track?

No surprise there, the flaggers are normally horrendous

As long as he's healthy, it's a bit of a relief to see Jett struggle. Proves he is human.

Good thing Sexton is getting off that bike next year. It looks way too dialed, he needs to start banging his head against the wall again.

I havent seen a single lapper make the slightest attempt to get out the way. No blue flags probably why.

It gets lost in Jett's brilliance how amazing Chase is technique wise. You get people talking like hes a bulldog after Jett came along. Like, what?

Prado finished 93 seconds back. Almost got lapped. 💁‍♂️ seems like the norm for him

Great ride Chase! Holding off Jett like that for 15+ minutes, very impressive, exactly what everyone wants to see from him

That's HUGE for Chase's confidence. Not only did he not tuck the front, Jett DID! Great racing. 👌

It's funny, when Tomac and Sexton battled in 2022, everyone talked about Chases riding style, how smooth he is and that he is the future of the sport. By 2023 he was the bulldog all of the sudden 😂

We asked for it, and we got it…. The 3 fast guys started together and had themselves a race.

To be fair, I think Jett got the worst of the lappers.  But they all had to pass them.

You all complain about the commentating. Then we get pure bike and crowd sounds, and it's still not enough.

Never complained about MX commentating. 

SX is not good however. 

JW and JS actually comment on the racing, in SX they talk about all shit but the actual racing on the screen.
