Would have guessed shoulder injury rather than hip. Still a bummer regardless, I hope he can be back at 100% for outdoors…

I think the hip has been bugging him for a while now

Man... that was rough. Looked much nastier from the second angle / drone shot.

Blew my tiny mind seeing him go through the whoops at Cardiff WSX, was like he was trying to bulldoze them, absolute beast.

Add me to the "hope he heals up quickly and fully" list, bring on the outdoors 🤘

Wow. Been kind of a mixed bag/rollercoaster of a year—comes out looking dominant at A1, entangled with Craig, wins 8th Daytona, gets his tooth chipped, gets Covid that lingers, qualified first for the 100th time, and now injured. Just so hope he can heal up for Nationals, I was really looking forward to seeing him on a KTM outdoors. 🙏

I thought they just meant it's ongoing since the crash, like he tried to ride the second session but it wasn't a go'er, but who knows

That sucks but the time off might be good for his mentals. IMO that’s why he’s been struggling.  

Hes had a great career, but man oh man what could have been if he had even half the consistency of a guy like Dunge

I'm cheering for Kenny now, Hunter will have time to get a title.

I thought that at first but this could be Hunta's best opportunity with Jett and Deeg's a coming.

Why don't we have 2 pro classes for 12 rds in Supercross. 450/250. Plus the "pro-am" 250cc run whatever you brung (2 or 4 stroke) class?

Gives the riders some time to prep for Nationals. 

And all indoor stadiums. At night.

Just feels like it's finally over... with Jett and chase out of the picture, this was his last real chance to get another sx title and he blows it... outdoors - prado, Jett, hunter, chase, and the cringe lord are gonna be sending it... all the greats lose it (that winning edge) at some point... I just don't see him ever wanting to race for second (or fifth) which would be the case going forward.. sucks, I've always been a big fan, but he had a great career... when it's time, it's time... where's the post hole digger at???

Seems like that might not be the best choice for SX whoops.

One of the worst second halves to a season for a top rider I have ever seen. What a collapse. It has been a horrendous last 5 rounds. His last chance to win another SX title too. There's been several titles he should have had in SX that he couldn't close on unfortunately.

...to launch over the bars Superman style instead of controlled bailout with tuck and roll on his side?

Seems like Eli’s been crashing this year quite a bit more than years past.

Or they’ll be buried on the start behind everyone else who is on it. Which is why I think it should only be allowed at certain races approved by AMA. Guys are having to choose between a safer tire for 99% or a sketchy tire that will help with the very first 1% of the race. Most of them know that they have to make the sketchy choice if they want a chance at the front. 

It should be treated as a special conditions tire and only available when AMA deems it necessary.
