They are 2 different people so we can’t put them in the same basket. That was proven during mxgp.

They both ruined their MXGP title chances at the exact same American race - method of doing so was yard-sailing on both counts. Twins indeed

If the teams want developmental classes to evaluate talent more reliably, that's fine, but no TV coverage and no championship titles. If you want to be on TV, then turn pro. A line has to be drawn somewhere.

No TV?  I like watching the SMX Next kids and that is part of the preparation to being in the pro class.  No "near factory bikes"?  What does that actually mean?  The 250 class has rules in place already for that purpose, but the bikes are still wildly different.  If you have the cash, you can buy damn near a full PC race bike......but you still have to ride it.

If they're getting equal TV time and press, the teams WILL load up the class with fire power (GP & National winner Sacha Coenen racing it is what started this thread after all). Like I said before, this is exactly what happened with 125SX. It may not seem like a big deal on its own but between 450, 250E, & 250W the very top talent is already split up too many ways. Adding another class is a step in the wrong direction, imo.

Lol bud, been to more MXGP's in person than you've taken a dump in your life but besides that, lets deal with facts, what was his championship position before Southwick? What happened at Southwick? What happened at Great Britain (the race after Southwick) MR "MXGP"? 

Here i'll help, you say, "He got crashed into by Renaux, thats what injured him and he also hit a fence" - and with that all the retards in this thread jump for joy. Except for Mr Goon over here, looking at PRACTICE LAP TIMES WHICH TOOK PLACE BEFORE HIS CRASH WITH RENAUX. Please Mighty MXGP Guru, explain it to me, 1 lap was all he had, slowest of the lot. The incident you clowns gobble down as the "real reason" has not taken place yet. Those facts wont change.

And if you want to tell me he doesnt care about practice, go pull up previous practice sessions yourself of GP's (pre Southwick) and see where he usually sits in those sessions.  "tell us you dont watch MXGP..." man SYBAU🤣🤡

Given this kid's well-earned reputation for yard sailing every weekend, this is actually a smart and cautious approach by KTM. 

I do think that if Sacha is running away with the main event wins, he should pull off at the white flag. He gains nothing by taking a win away from one of these kids.

Has this rumor even been corroborated anywhere?  And, if I am reading the schedule right there is only 1 SMX Next race before the East starts, so he would get only 1 tune up race...
