I've just uploaded my press day interviews and there's a lot there!
Ken Roczen talks about his 2026 offer, Jorge Prado acknowledges rumors, Eli Tomac tackles happiness and Justin Barcia talks about missing out on 'luxuries' as his GASGAS times winds down.
Also, because of popular demand, these interviews are on podcast platforms as well!
Oh, I’ll have to watch this when I get home.
Right on, this will be good!
Can’t wait to hear barcia bash the new bike next year. He always blames suspension never him self
Lewis may be the only real media guy in motocross.

What KTM group rider hasn't complained about the suspension this year? Maybe if barcia, rj, and chase are all having issues there's something to it?
I don't recall RJ complaining about the bike / suspension on the Husky. To me, he always comes across as being thankful for the 450 ride. Also, there's been a number of races where Bubba has said how good Chase's bike looks on the track and that the setup looks great.
He's talked about it within the last few weeks. Got better with some new mxgp spec parts. Barcia and Lewis reference it in the interview. Maybe not openly complaining but made some pretty big changes.
Edit: discussed on moto 60 show this week as well. RJ was having forks fade so got the mxgp fork and made that better but now having shock issues. ZachO said the bike needed to be considerably better.
Great interviews as usual. More and more I find myself watching Lewis’s stuff and not bothering much with other media outlets. Starting to leave them in the dust imo.
It’s funny hearing Roczen say he’s a little worried about his ankle, knowing he was trowing some X Games gold medal whips earlier.
This must be the most ridiculous thing I've read in ages.
Kudos!
Lewis is totally uncut….and to the point
Nice interviews but I have no idea how you can say Prado acknowledged the rumors from his interview...
Who else gets actual details drawn out from these guys. Everyone else just dances around the hot topics and asks softball questions…
why? he's not wrong. Who else is actually asking these guys REAL questions? Kudos to Lewis. Sure as hell ain't the rest of the "moto mafia media".
Big Lew is raising the level for sure!
It’s so nice to hear the old guys be honest.
Minor complaint - great content but as an old deaf guy (wear hearing protection please!!!!!) the high level on the background noise really was a challenge. Thank god screech wasn’t doing it!
Honestly, that tent is so busy when those interviews are happening. I couldn't even hear Jorge in that interview!
I'll see what I can do to 'help' the audio but we may just be victim to the surroundings...
I can't figure out if this is positive or negative, haha. I guess it can be both in different scenarios.
Pit Row
Hard surfaces behind the riders doesn’t help. Every room is different and I’m sure many never think about acoustics. Nice job given the conditions. Ryder D was easy to hear with that baritone.
Lvk maybe time to add in daaaaaark. LvD?
I love big Lew.
It’s becoming more apparent why Lewis is at Vital. He consistently churns out content. The questions are always solid and the interviews are pretty informative. It had to be a no brainer for ML to hire Lewis.
You can see it on his nose.it gets longer every time...... when he lies.....just like pinokkio
Be careful, Lewis. It didn’t work out so well for the last person who was “the fan’s shiny new toy”. 😃
Lewis for the interviews.
AC and JB Show, LVK, and Pulp MX Fly Racing Show for post shows. AC is on a whole other level.
Prado had a beautifully put together PR response.
By the way why is the site so glitchy? Boomslang said it's happening to foreign users.
Everyone else deepthroats the riders.
Ask the Suzuki rider about 'uncut'...not that there's anything wrong with that...
Excellent big Lew!
Barcia contradicted himself multiple times, hilarious!
