But then, is it:
MXGP > SX+AMAMX
or
MXGP < SX+AMAMX
?
Supercross pays the most. If you're a top MXGP rider you'd get paid more than a top AMA outdoors only rider, but less than an AMA SX only rider.
Fixed it for you…

Putting Lucas on a 450 is insane. The way the track develops for the 450’s, the strength of the class. He’s still so young and needs a ton of development in supercross. Even if he is that good, let him sneak in a couple of good performances on a 250 for some confidence.
I guess 26 is the year to do it. We have so many guys on new bikes who won’t be super comfortable to push and race a new package. Not a fan of this decision.

If you can earn more than 3.5 million with ama nationals you are right.....
People said Danger Boy style wouldn’t work in SX either, he hasn’t lit the stadiums up but he’s had some success indoors
My info wasnt fresh so it might have been changed or just have been bad info. My apologies if it was
Do youu ever let something rest or do you ALWAYS need to have the last word?
Actually you are wrong all 40 get paid.....
If by some you mean a title, some wins, and is either the first or second fastest guy when it comes to raw speed.
Yep that’s what I mean. Success but not domination like outdoors where his style shines on a 250
Thank you! Couldn't agree more
I also completely agree
to give another perspective, why would yal put Lucas back on a 250 when they fully committed to 450s in gps 🤔 the schedule is already tight as is , yal goona throw tht boii rhythm off for the gp season & on top of tht , yal kno how the rules go , if the plan really is for 2028 full time , he wins the gp title before 28’ which he’s very capable of winning it , 250 SX is not even goona matter cause now has to be in the 450s
They do crash a lot, Sasha probably the most, but remember that the MXGP tracks don't get an awful lot of love over a GP weekend, they're as rough as guts, we just saw the same crew do the prep for the Nations and guys were going down an awful lot, the brothers would probably crash less in an AMA outdoor series wouldn't you think?
Sure SX is a different beast and always catches out newcomers but probably as it always would though
I get it as far as moving up and down between the 250 and 450. Splitting testing between two bikes. We don't want to see him get broken in half on a full on deathcross track, thats all.
There’s always lots of talk of ‘surviving’ SX when international riders try their hand, but is there any evidence that they get injured more than full time US riders?
Seems to me that the field is depleted by injuries every year regardless of origin.
You can't just spit facts here, that's now how it works. 😂
Pit Row
Not to mention that just about every top level international rider that’s come to the US in the last thirty years has won a regional SX title - Pichon, Roncada, Reed, Langston, Townley, Pourcel, Roczen, Musquin, Ferrandis, both the Lawrences, Vialle.
They all cut their teeth on the 250 first. Honestly I don't care what class he rides, I just want to see him and his brother here riding in the States. Lucas was uber impressive at the Ironman
Gotta remember who he (Coenen) has in his corner, just sayin ROGER!!
Will they both be on 250’s or will one be on 250 and the other on a 450?
Honestly I am not that afraid by Lucas, even in 450. He rode like a vet this year, while being a rookie and in the title hunt. I really wish they get close to DV for instance or as good, the same as O'show with the Lawrence ; it is only a process and you need someone very knowlegeable in your corner to get to the next step. Without, not a chance.
Sacha seems too short to be good at whoops. Also he crashes a lot. Not a good combo. Well see.
Vialle managed to become a 2 time regional champ and his speed in the whoops were mediocre. I'm sure that Sasha will be able to be mediocre in the whoops and if you're fast enough around the rest of the track you can win 250 titles.
There’s a Mr Stewart on the phone for you Pop.
How tall is Sacha? Deegan is 5'7", and although it was a while ago Stew and RC are 5'4"-5'7" I think
Sorry Brian just called. Deegan is 5'7.5"
Any chance they’re in for Red Bud or Southwick?
Perfect fit in the GP schedule.
Where are they now?...? or was this fake news again about the coenens ......
