Going to be hard for Prado to be under the Redbull truck with a monster helmet. Seems like monster is refusing to let him out of his personal contract unless he pays them back a shit ton of money.

Pretty sure monster just comes with kawi. I thought monster pulled out of all personal deals in moto. That’s why Jo has a drink weird helmet now and Eli isn’t a monster athlete anymore. Just a sponsor through the team

Wasn’t he supposed to be Monsters new “face” athlete to compete with Red Bull and Jett, that could be why Monster would be pretty pissed with how this deal went.

I know WSX gets alot of hate on here, but that's alot of quality riders. Hope this is a breakout year for them and they learn from their mistakes.

I was thinking the same. The series can't be that bad if all these top guys are racing it. Sure, money is a big factor but with the SMX playoffs, they can worry a lot less about chasing money.

The riders like money. All these rounds are extra money on top of what they can make. The pressure is also massively different. 

I think it's amazing. You have riders like Savagty who can comfortably turn down a 1 year factory ride because of WSX. 5 years ago, that never happens.

So who is Wilson’s 450 team mate that they brought up on pulp but wouldn’t drop a name for the Aussie sx?

Because it's not done as far as I'm aware, and it's someone who's in contract with another team for 2026...would have to get out of their deal to do it.

Are Tomac, Webb, Cooper and Ken racing the entire series or just one race?

They are doing select rounds. Could be one race or if they want the whole series.

Sillly season,  scuttlebutt on Prado racing 250’s next year, both mx and sx.    If true, he can start fresh.  
Who would have thought?

I know that Webb is also racing Paris SX and WSX and Paris actually have a race on the same weekend. On top of that they have a overlapped round with AUSX aswell. Very questionable schedule to be honest.

Kinda jealous of the people that go to the first WSX round though, it's gonna be stacked

He’s not eligible to race 250sx?

No one with a brain because Prado isn’t eligible to race 250sx.

If you win a 450 world title, you can’t race a 250 in SX, gotta go straight to the big bike class. He can race a 250 outdoors though if he wanted.

I guess 450 sx I can see him top 20. 
Outdoors, a 250 would be good for him to het some top 10’s and gain some experience.  

Ive never seen such a brat in a pro sport. 

He realized he wasnt at the speed of the top 5.

Sources for Tomac and Sexton.

AC and JB. JT. Matthes. LVK Show. Weege. BT. 100% fact - just can't be 'officially' announced because of stone age practice of the teams of not announcing team signings. Weird, and different to every other sport on the plane.t 

It's not a stone age practice.

If I pay you $1 million to promote my products for 1 year, I'd expect you to promote my products for 1 year.  Not 6 or 9 or 11.5 months.  Otherwise, contract is cancelled, and payment reduced.  I also don't expect you to bad mouth the products during, or for a relatively long time afterward.

Waiting to announce is the right thing to do.
