A completely off base opinion of Chase, and a Deegan reference in a thread that has nothing to do with him. That’s almost impressive in its silliness. It was mentioned several times in the big Chase thread that he’s one of the nicest, most well liked guys in the pits. On topic: if Monster wants to keep him, I could see him going to Tedder. Edited to add: Just watched SML’s report, and Chase (SML) seems to think Sexton ends up at HEP based on that new outside sponsor they have (drawing a blank on the name), the fact they’re...

They already signed Mookie

Here is the whole rig setup for a long weekend.

Way more people care about bass fishing than moto.

Ok, definitely an element of "head case" Chase and wonderful fatherly actions - [insert KYB/ WP suspension sale pic here], but.... Honda - They simply ended up getting these Aussie brothers who turned out to be pretty damn good at both racing and bike development - something Chase clearly struggles with. We all work, do you accept second fiddle or go elsewhere to be the top dog? Especially when you have a list of interested companies and big money offered? KTM - around the time he signed to go elsewhere, not only were there issues with the rear shocks, but...

My theory is similar - in 2022 he gave Tomac all he could handle, nearly won the title, then won a bunch of SX races in ‘23, won the title (maybe a bit fortuitously but nonetheless showed the speed). Probably believed he was on a trajectory to clean up for the next 4-5 years. Along comes Jett and in ‘23 MX he can barely show him a wheel. Suddenly Chase’s best is no longer good enough to win races, let alone titles, and he’s been searching ever since for that extra few percent that just doesn’t exist except in very...

In my opinion, I think he left Honda because of the Lawrences instead of the bike. And hasn’t found a bike like the Honda since. (And he’s burned bridges since)

Julien knows that a 450 is in his future, so best to get on with it now at a race that won’t mean that much, as far as his reputation goes.

It just amazes me, even though it shouldn't, with how many people can't read other threads or go right to the info page ML has already put out. RJ and Savatgy. This is at least the 2nd time this was asked today and was answered a while ago.

Hampshire is one.

As an American, regardless of the results, still the best race of the year. Cooper Webb would be the first rider I would call for Team USA next year regardless if he’s no longer racing MX. Classic performance by him again in MXON. Congrats to the podium winners.

Webb is riding amazing.

That Austin guy is obv just baiting. Probably frustration kicking in lol

We're just one surprise/mistake/technical failure away from Team USA on the podium

Can we just enjoy the racing without mentioning what’s his name? He’s turned down the opportunity to represent multiple times, no need to talk about him at this great event.

He wasn't. They swapped being the 3rd best guy across most of the season The previous comment was about the sand of Assen, which is a totally different sort of discipline

Jett and Hunter will be there.

Fair point. My bad.
