The statement from PMG Racing:

“Pipes Motorsports Group announces that rider Jason Anderson will be stepping away from Supercross competition for an indefinite period to address personal, family, and ongoing medical matters. This decision was made jointly by Jason and his management team in coordination with the organization.

Pipes Motorsports Group respects Jason and his family’s privacy and fully supports his decision. No further statements will be made at this time.”

Agreed.   I hope he gets his personal affairs in order and comes back to race with a renewed competitive spirit.   If not, I at least hope he gets his family situation squared away for the sake of his wife and child.

I hope Jason and his family are able to heal whatever is ailing them. There's a baby involved. We should all be rooting for them.

Good for him and the team for stepping up. Hopefully him and his family get it worked out and we see Jason back at the track someday.

Bummer for the team, they really came far over the last years and seeing two Suzukis up there every round was awesome to watch.

Think we all knew this announcement was coming after it seemed the team was as blindsided as everyone else.

I think I've read enough excuses and justifications for that "poor Jason" 's acts for a while...

That kind of "no big deal" comments make me wanna throw up.

Down votes for the people hoping the best for him and his family. Blows me away how fucking stupid this world can be.

What do you know about it?  It's none of your business or anyone else's.

Quit being a jack ass.

The comments on Vital blow my mind. How some people are making this out to be in any form acceptable

My understanding, charges (against Jason) were dropped?  And assuming one side is more truthful than the other is dangerous.

The whole: "innocent till proven guilty" seems to have been lost on society...especially on social media.

So much we read and hear, just isn't true...all hearsay.

I hope gets his life in order and wish the best for him and his family. That’s all I’ll comment about it. It’s a shame.

Innocent until proven guilty doesn't mean shit outside of the courtroom. Guilty people get acquitted all the time. 

 

Just because charges were dropped doesn't mean he didn't punch and choke his wife. The neighbors felt strongly enough that Jason was being violent that they called the cops on the millionaire next door. Most people wouldn't do that on a whim.

This guy probably thinks “knowing” Jason Anderson is watching him ride a dirt bike on TV once a week.

Not good news, and we don't know the real story, nothing more to be discussed.

Next.....

Who will replace him this, or next year?

And innocent people get convicted due to hearsay, gossip and rumors on social media all the time.

Just because charges were filed doesn't mean anything either.  People file bogus charges all the time....all the time.

I don't think anyone here is condoning what Jason is accused of.

But, we weren't there.  Unless there's video, or multiple witnesses with the same story, we won't ever know what happened, including whether his wife's side of the story is true, false, minimized or exaggerated, and that happens too often.

Whether he ever races again is secondary.
