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🤣🤡

Am crazy for thinking Sacha might be safer in SX? My thinking is that outdoors the speeds get so high and he just pins it and sends it. In SX it's so much tighter and more technical that I can't help thinking maybe he won't be able to get the same degree of sketchy.

I've not paid attention to this thread. I've not read all the posts.  But I just have to ask, how is a guy that has won MX2 MXGP races allowed to race in the Smext class?

I think that like with Deegan its more of a  way for the team to make sure he's not gonna go out and do something dumb and hurt himself or other racers by riding over his head and killing himself to beat the names he's heard of. 

 

I think that Deegan not wining, riding a relatively uneventful race was what the team wanted him to do. Prove that he had the self control to back it down when needed. 

 

With Sacha's reputation of riding so aggressively I could see a similar plan or request from the team from him.   The Vet racer from around here Shane Kelleher AKA Scary guy was asked to come back on the AM day after his first try at an AMA arenacross race and that ride was a big part of him getting that nickname. I doubt that Sacha would have a similarly spectacular but scary ride. But the SMX next race gives him a chance to show he will not be a danger to himself or others . Just like most of the other racers on the SMX gates. 

 

 I look forward to seeing Sacha riding SX after he gets into a groove and I hope he's able to ride as aggressively  as he has in some of the outdoor races I've seen him in. While staying healthy. The thing is, that if your riding conservatively to avoid injury. Your done. If not getting hurt is on your mind than your gonna get hurt. If he can slowdown to go faster, rider smoother to go faster, etc. that will also help him stay healthy and out racing and that's what I hope we see.
