Realistically he should be a consistent top 5 guy and top ten regardless of misfortunes or crashes. Those severe fades are impossible for someone of his ability.

Unpopular but maybe obvious opinion: Even if the bike was "perfect" for him, he's just not as fast as Jett and Hunter and therefore it will always be the bike's fault.

Everyone is replaceable.

He came in thinking he was going to battle jett outdoors (gypsey interview)and quickly found out competition is no joke here. And SX is going to be more frustrating for him . He had it all in europe . Decides to come over and it bit him in the arse. At this point the bike is not the issue, team is giving him all he wants and he is not improving but actually getting worse ,

This could be part of it. Finish mid-pack in the gp’s because he’s not feeling it and it’s a 6-10th finish. Finish mid pack in the us because he’s not feeling it and it’s 15-20th. The guys he used to race in the gp’s must be scratching their head pretty good too at the moment when they look at his results.

He's not good enough and never has been. Euros don't want to admit this but the MXGP riders always have an unfair advantage at MXON because of what they are allowed to do to their bikes. Their rules allow for a lot more aftermarket changes, particularly the swingarm. Prado is on equal equipment now and he's on much wider tracks that he can't just get a holeshot and block/cross jump people to stay in the lead.

Yesterday was sad seeing it in person. He looked like he was trail riding at times in the second moto. Saw him looking over his shoulder several times mid-moto when sitting mid-pack. Not a good look. I was excited for his arrival this year…but hard to watch this. Hope it doesn’t deter more Euro’s from coming in the future.

It's the change from a 16-man gate to a 40-man gate.

He’s not as good as he thought he was and he’s not as good as we thought he was.

Too many people sticking up for "George's" poor performance and some get it about him. He clearly doesn't possess the fitness and speed needed to run at the front in the US. He also doesn't have the heart and desire and competitiveness in him to drive himself when he's not feeling it as he's getting passed. I've tried to give him the benefit of the doubt for many many of the races and moto after moto this year. I've read the excuses that some on here repeatedly make for him. But I finally admit I can't be on the fence...

Id say that the MXdN is a one off race where you see miracle performances. Now it's 2025 and hes racing a full mx season and getting smoked. Your head is buried in the sand if youre strictly blaming the bike. The dude just quits. I dont care if he's not gelling with the bike. Dude has no heart and just up and quits

He is a hired professional but he is also a human. A lot of things weigh on him and he obviously isn’t performing. I think he has run out of gas mentally. Team, bike, culture, opponents, being homesick. Facing all the above at the same time isn’t easy. Big kudos to those that can overcome all those hurdles. Prado clearly can’t. It’s sad to see and I feel kind of sorry for him to be honest. It’s a sad situation for Kawi too, but at least they can go home after a bad day at work without being slaughtered on...

Between Anderson, Prado and the legendary PC curse, I couldn't help but imagining the Kawi guys watching Sexton yesterday and thinking "Thanks Lord, that guy will be with us next year, we'll just have to spend a season fixing his front end feeling issues and then everything will be right!"... 😄 One thing's for sure: the situation makes both Kawasaki and Prdao look bad, and it has to stop. Fast.

I hope he does. Mostly because I think he's had the best kits this season and want to see that setup out front 😂

Prime Ferrandis was a treat to watch. I was really hoping to see him get it all together again but just has been injuries and just weird years, for the last couple years, unfortunately. He was so aggressive looking on the 250 and the '21 Star 450 and it just seems like he never looked the same after. I still think the '21-'22 Star 450 is probably underrated. DF, Eli, AP, Craig all just ripped on that bike. Plus I think even Nichols said he helped do testing on it and said how good it was and easy to set-up.

We really got robbed in 22 when he tore his UCL in Pala, could have been an even better season with Dylan defending his #1. Seems like age has caught up with him just a little more quickly than a few of his peers. Some of my favorite races involve Dylan though, guy was relentless in his prime.

'21 mx Dylan was a unit! He really seemed like a cant miss guy in sx, too. He was absolutely incredible on a 250 indoors. He had better laptimes than the 450 sometimes. Thats why I never put a lot of stock in comparing 250 vs 450 laptimes. Doesn't mean the 250 guy will automatically be even faster on a 450. He came back from an injury in '22 to race the MXdN and at times at that race, looked like the fastest dude in the world. He never gelled with the new Yamaha chassis. Which is interesting when you...

Beat Tomac and Kenny outdoors like nobody did before since they went on the 450s. He truly was a monster in 2021. I wonder what could have been if he didn't split up with DV.. It also felt like he didn't have the same kind of motivation anymore after he won the 450 championship. Obviously getting hurt in 450 SX year after year didn't really help to build up to this level again..

1 of those three is also a national champion. He's a 2x national champion. In his prime on Star he was a joy to watch.
