Relevant point, valid theory and awesome article: https://www.vitalmx.com/features/Cooksey-Straight-To-The-Point-Eli-Has-…
Thanks Cooksey, first time someone brings some rationality to this. I guess we'll really know from ET3 himself at some point once it's all said and done and he feels "comfy" talking about it.

Not saying he definitely doesn't have anxiety or whatever I'm just saying I'm pretty sure that isn't an example of it. He did plenty of other interviews all weekend and was fine, I believe he even did one before one of the races when I'm sure it would be pretty bad and was fine.
I think similarly but not about the crashing. Tomac is way more technical than people ever talk about. When he's on, he looks like he's riding a MTB... Watch Hangtown and GH 15 again... he was riding a different track. He wasn't bashing his way through.
Using technique like that has to come with comfort... I bet he focuses on that feeling and when he has it he does, and when he doesn't he doesn't.
Ive always thought meditation would help him out with that. Its a great tool to teach you to shut your brain off.
But we all are diagnosing him through the TV. But the yips does make sense as a possible problem.
I guess the double shoulders and surgeries and 2 years to get back up to speed didnt count?!??!?!
In sports, pitchers, golfers, darts .....
It’s not about being nervous. Though it undoubtedly could make one anxious.

It's coming don't worry....
Teams don’t like speculative articles, but my response is if they don’t want speculation then offer more transparency. Tell us when your riders are hurt or what issues their bike are having, we always find out eventually. My two cents...
