Because the Deegan fanatics on here always fantasize about how “vital will melt down once Deegan finally wins” but the reality is no one really cares besides a couple people that want to discount it since it was a mudder. He rode well and earned the win. Good job, not much else to say.

11 riders in EMX125 is a fucking joke.

I don’t get the obsession of wanting 25 lappers instead of 6.

One thing that pisses me off is that live timing doesn't sync with video. In freaking 2026. If you wanna look up some laptimes you spoil the race for yourself because the live timing is like 40 sec ahead

One, why did Matthes say it was a “rumor” that Deegan is asking for bonus money. Can a journalist get someone on the phone and on the record? Sheesh… Two, this race is all about pride.Either you wanna step up and prove you’re the baddest mofo on the planet, or you stay the fuck at home. Nobody owes you jack for going. If your country wants to help with expenses, cool. If not, also cool. But expecting to get paid to “represent your country?” That’s some grifter shit that has nothing to do with the spirit of this event. IMHO.

This squabbling every year is pathetic.The US supposedly has the biggest moto industry in the world, yet it seems nobody is willing to facilitate getting to the biggest internationa race. Meanwhile small countries attend every year without any chance of ever winning. How do they do it? Fund raising that starts nearly 12 months in advance. It's not like the event is sprung on anyone without notice. In the absence of any other willing parties, the AMA should be stepping up.

Once again you're changing the goalposts. Nobody is arguing that the 250 class in America has often (almost always) been deeper and stronger than the MX2 class. Even a year ago the best 250 rider on the planet was clearly Deegan. The only thing Mailin said was that the top 5 in the 2026 MX2 class could probably win at SOUTHWICK against the current 2026 AMA 250 class, just like Sacha did a week ago. How are you people so sensitive?

This track should host the MXON. Unfortunately the cost of the event probably means it'll never happen.

All I can say is that I really like it. I'm from Spain and have been there several times, and I'm actually going back this summer. It has a more authentic, traditional vibe to it. It reminds me of how Spain felt 30 years ago—not because it's underdeveloped or anything, but because it has managed to keep its true essence and charm compared to here
