re press conference, mann fahie is a shifty looking dude. #JacknCokeJakewasRight
Lol stop it.
You two make it sound like he was dead last and was matching the leaders pace while coming through the pack. He was yet again riding within his means at 90%, being very average and nowhere near the level he is capable of and has to be on if he wants to be a consistent threat for wins. Then things happened in the field that enabled him to turn a 8-10th place finish to a 5th place finish. A very distant 5th place finish.
I'll give you that the qualification was decent and so was the heat. But have we completely forgot that Sexton is a one lap master? Him being 3rd isn't amazing, especially in a field without Jett.
Who knows where the next top manager is coming from, but let’s not forget Lars joined Honda as a shop boy twenty five years ago and has worked his way up.
There’s no reason why Kawasaki hasn’t got someone like that waiting in the wings, and don’t overlook the possibility of plucking someone from another manufacturer- Jordan Troxall could be ready for a big step up from a 450 crew chief to Team manager. (Following Lars’ trajectory)
Where is Mike Williams these days?

More than two spots. Cooper and Ferrandis, then Webb and Prado. He did pass Prado, but only because of that incident with Webb. That's 4 riders. He would have been 9th. Barely beat Marchbanks. I mean 5th sounds decent on paper but that was not a good ride for someone like him. He was faster than all of these guys last year
You’re right I just rewatched it. Initially on the replay I thought it was JCoop and Webb in the sand.
Working for his rich father in law last I knew.
What are the possibilities of Chase going to Suzuki? Maybe a Roczen teammate?
Roczen wins what he wins on a bike that has practically been built for him, because apparently he knows what he wants and feels comfortable with. I don’t think Chase knows that at all. I think he’d be the same overthinking head case on the HEP Suzuki OR the Star Yamaha as he has been on the Kawasaki.
And KTM, and Honda…
So I've barely read any of the posts in this thread. Whats the consensus here? We all know Chase is a headcase. He's my favorite rider, if I had one, but its just a fact. That said between him and Jorge having issues, its not all on Chase. At what point do top riders not want to ride for Kawi? Are we already there? Yeah a JCoop level guy would ride for them. But if I'm Hunter Lawrence no way am I chancing going to Kawi
I think if Chase exits his contract early it will be a disaster for Kawi as a factory team. There will be a lot of rebuilding and restoration of reputation required before any genuine factory level guy will touch them. They obviously have money and could pick up a fringe factory/satellite level rider who cares a bit less.
Well, well, well… 😆
Chase wins on the slow Kawi at elevation, the saga continues lol
wht ever tht shit was we saw tonight, he need to carry tht into outdoors & cut out the bullshit
Being a Chase fan gonna give me an aneurysm
Love to see it. Hopefully he brings the heat this summer 🥵
I would compare that win to a fourth quarter touchdown when you’re down 35. I’m sure the win bonus will be nice.
Pit Row
Have to wonder what this year would have looked like if he could have gotten consistent top 5 starts......
Post a reply to: Panic Button for Chase/Kawi?
