Or they’re both leaving.
Ohh, didn’t think of that 🤔
Imagine if we could see Chase on the HRC bike that Jett and Hunter have perfected.
Tell him he cant change anything except clickers lol.
Not even bars or clickers for 3 months lol

Or the Yamaha that Deegan has perfected…
Chase won 2 SX races this year. That is good, considering Tomac won 4, and then add in Hunter and Kenny. Then he hurt his knee. He should absolutely stay at Kawi. Would be a mistake to leave.
If he thought he should have won way more races in SX, his expectations were far too grand.
San Diego 2025
Tomac DNF'd the next to last race. Couldn't even line up at the last race.
A person that doesn't finish every round doesn't often win the championship.
Yea that was like #1 wackiest things to happen. James was talking about how chase looks down at his fender when riding which causes a lot of his problems. He was trying to convince ppl that is not true… and then this happened lol. No shot after that lol.
Well, the question wasn’t to me, but I do agree with there being several, obvious reasons.
$$ - resources - expectations - prestige
For starters…
My bet;
Monster Energy Kawasaki GP Team
Money wise it's Sexton's only option without losing 5-6 million plus or at least a huge penalty from Kawi/Monster
Villopoto did the same thing.....
Time is ticking Chase...
Wont go MXGP.
I wonder how bad chase wants to punch matthes in the face RN.
Yea unexpected.
to be fair he does have a very punchable face
Why? It's his job to report on the sport. If Chase can't handle that, he needs thicker skin.
Pit Row
Seems he will barely be ready to race no matter what because of his acl surgery in June. A1 will be just over 6 months post op. That is on the extreme early end of returning from that safely and being even close to full strength. If he is switching teams, there will be almost no seat time to get ready.
I don’t see why he would leave due to the alleged salary. With the new bike this year I would think they could find a good setting for him.
If he really does have a 5-6 million dollar contract he should stay put. It will be a massive success for him if he wins 5 races next SX season.
Between JL , HL, HD , KR, JP it will be a battle for the podium let alone a win. 500k in win bonuses does not make up for 2 mil in salary.
I don’t think the perfect bike would help him that much more. He is a great rider. But so are the others I listed. HD and JP are only getting faster.
My tailbone hurts just thinking about it...
*coccyx
guess I was right, no Sexton to Ducati. Just sayin
Roczen won 2 titles on what some would consider "B-Level" teams. Webb just signed with a B-level team, although in the twilight of his career. Maybe that's what Chase needs: the ability to make his own decisions with his bike, to realize that it's not always the bike..
They are both in the tail ends of their careers. Chase is young. Kenny winning on a B team bike defied the odds and is the exception not the rule.
No the one where he finished the series with the most points. Its how all championships are decided
Kenny won on RCH in his prime. Came into 2015 outdoors with the #1 plate, and finished 2016 with the #1 plate. We could even consider TwoTwo a B-level team, and he was winning races/leading championships throughout its time in the paddock.
More reason to credit Ken and say he is an anomaly.
What does that have to do with what Jake said on PulpMX?
What did Mathes say?
