I think the shit that got pulled is bullshit and pretty disrespectful to the FIM WMX racers.
I get that Womens motocross is not everyone's cup of tea, but they don't deserve the disrespect that Luongo and the FIM are pulling.
They need to get their shit together.
I understand the main grievances with Youthstream, but I don't get this petty crap where people are picking holes in the smallest of details too. It's pointless and actually a bit pathetic.
Some people need to get off their high horse and see the big picture. Everything isn`t perfect, but this isn`t exactly a strong argument for claiming Luongo does a bad job.
MX before Luongo was unprofessional and th etalentpool was shite. The man deserves more creds than he gets
Scoring points on Vital by bashing YS / Luongo seems to get easier every season.
Former champ Livia Lancelot won't be at any other GP race since this round was the only one running alongside the MX1/MX2 and teh rest of the champ is with the dodgy MX3 champ which receives zero coverage.
Livia will be fousing on a french championship, preparing for X Games (thought this was cancelled) and passing diplomas to be a rider instructor... Smart girl if you ask me.
Look at how embarrassingly bad the tracks were back in 1996 for example. San Marino, Roggenburg, etc, etc. The list goes on. they were little more than fields with a few natural bumps. Today the paddock, tracks and presentation is way better, and still improving.
Heck, look at 2001 and Dorna - now THAT was a disgrace. Luckily YS picked up the pieces and are trying to put them back together.
The way the riders have to pay their way to teams, or be picked up is just the wau it is done in many other motorsports. WRC, STCC, F1 etc. comes to mind. Same thing is happening in US MX/SX
GL can pretend he knew nothing of it, like he does when anything goes bad, and let's someone he pays take the blame. But this is about be EQUAL. And there is no equal when it comes to YS, YS PR, or even GL and the WMX.
Know before you speak.
Come to think of it, i don't think there are any series that are for men only, maybe that is unfair...
It's just a picture.
If you had not post this nobody would have noticed because not too many people care for WMX.
Since that someone isn't with YS anymore, the championship gone to sh*t.
Pit Row
Like it or not the WMX is still a sideshow. Specifically organising a group photograph of riders who are spread far and wide across Europe and the rest of the World is not only logistically very difficult, but expensive and ultimately not really worth it.
You do realize the girls are there at the race and YS can say" come to this area for picture" that take 5 to 10 minutes......how is that "logistically very difficult" and "expensive"???? Know what you're saying before saying it.
I don't like that people think we are a "sideshow", work and train hard, sometime harder then the mens. And do not get same respect. Why do you think Jamma? Honest.....
I think bc women are become more powerful and mens are scared of that.
There is a strong possibility that a new 2011 group photograph was taken at Sevlievo, AFTER the press release was published on the website. I just don't see the point of getting irritated by such an insignificant issue?!
Nobody is saying the women don't train hard or that they're not talented, they all fast and they deserve a championship status like they have. I wish them all the best and hope women's MX continues to grow but at present, whether you like it or not, it is still only a sideshow to MX1 & MX2.
Like I said earlier, by having a womans only class it does, by default, make it a "sideshow".
They didn't wait for girls, I think bc they didn't want to have to deal with it.
We have to look for details small like this bc if we don't we are continued over looked. Put yourself in our position for once, or more. You will not like it. You as well would be ranting and b*thing about "small stuff" like this.
Your shirt says nothing at all ... The girls where to stubborn for YS and GL so he will let the championship die just the same way like he did with the Supermoto ... Yeah that guy loves the motocross and is a real fan.
Bye the way the sponsors of those girls will be very happy... Look bye the way at this, VERY GOOD:
It is Rockstar Energy Suzuki from this year on Teka is now KTM his sponsor don't know but if make those fails you are a unworthy motocross promoter. But stay loving them Jefro and Jamma otherwise you maybe lose your free tickets en presscards
It sounds as though you're either a rider, related to a rider or associated with a team in some way... so maybe you should suggest a promotional shoot for the girls?
Thats not to say I accept and agree with the way Youthstream conduct their business operations, but Im at least willing to try and understand and accept some of them. Shouting and screaming about small issues like a sponsorship credit error that could easily have been made by a temporary member of the tv production staff, or an out of date photograph accompanying a WMX press release will get you nowhere and just seems a bit melodramatic to me.
it's easy to sit behind a computer screen and take cheap shots all day long at promoters, but lets face facts, Giuseppe Luongo has invested lot more into motocross than you or the other snipers will ever do!
As Ricky Johnson joked in the press conference at Franciacorta MXDN in 2009, " a lot of people think Giuseppe's a son of a bitch", but you know like Bernie Ecclesstone in F1, perhaps it needs an SOB to get things done around here!"
