Take it easy on the guy, he threw himself is the gnarlest series on the planet with minimal experience. Once his riding became defensive, it looked like he was drowning in armpump. We'll never know. Although, after he fell, he did shake out his arm. He had a great heat race at 8 laps or whatever it is. 20min main with all that heat will take some getting used to, again. He's a Champion, he'll figure it out. It's what they do!

IDK if they are just trying to keep broing down with everyone, but them acting like it's all fine because KTM NA is a "separate entity" was maybe one of the worst takes I've ever heard from them. I think their main goal is to not hurt their access to the team because clearly JT and Steve aren't dumb enough to think it's all gonna be just fine. (Or they are extremely ignorant of the facts)

Ah the ink jet printer business model

How can KTM North America claim they’re profitable so there’s no problem? Whatever funny money statistics a creative financial guy will twist can make that seem plausible but the parent company bears the brunt of development and liability costs. KTM NA isn’t paying raw material costs, production R&D, manufacturing costs, etc. KTM NA has arguably the easiest job within the company: Sell a popular, successful final product through an established dealer network and operate amateur/professional racing programs without blowing the budget. This sounds like your kid running a small business out of your basement and claiming great profits while you...

And don't forget, the Deegs got out-qualified and beat by a jet ski racer.

The vast majority of the people I talk to agree with my take. They liked them, but they are sick of them. Never in the history of our sport has a rider been so over publicized. The Lawrence’s and Feld are to blame, they over saturated the market with them and everyone is sick of them. I love watching him ride, and in 2020 even thought he was funny, but then they just took him and shoved them down our throats. It’s not that I dislike him, I don’t, but I don’t need to see him, his brother, or his...

During a preseason SX show they asked a bunch of riders about who was the best in whoops, jumps, turns, etc. All the other riders responded with respectful answers giving credit to their competitors. Jett said in every category “me”. It was some ugly arrogance, I thought at the time that it was probably a bad sign for his 2025 season, it came across as disrespectful and insecure. I’m a fan of Jett, Hunter too. I hope he gets his attitude figured out..

I think the boo'ing might actually be getting in his head too. He got booed last night at A1 again during opening ceremonies. I think it's ridiculous, I like the kid and we shouldn't be dicks to the riders. But between that and his bike not being all the way dialed. I think he's a bit jaded right now.

KTM representatives are able to push out the KTM NA is profitable and a completely separate company narrative and thus not affected in any way since nobody within this industry seems to be interested in learning the very basics of group financials. Yes, KTM NA is a seperate company and they might be a profitable subsidary. But that doesn't matter when the consolidated group financial statements tell us that the group has billions in debt. All of the PMG subsidiaries are in a vulnerable situation at the moment regardless of their own financial situation.

Rodger knows exactly how bad the situation is. He also knows he has no responsibility to report honestly on the company's finances.
