Sorry if this has been discussed already.
On the most recent Main Event Moto, they did a segment on silly season and 2021. Daniel Blair hinted that he is almost certain there will be an “earth shattering” change coming soon that is bigger than any one rider, team or series. He said it’s not the “chase format” that is often hinted at, but that it will be “100% positive for the fans”.
The first thing that pops into my head, is some sort of merger or takeover by Feld and MX Sports to create a single, unified North America based MX/SX series.
My gut tells me maybe MX Sports were already struggling a bit even prior to COVID-19. As for SX, even as successful as this past SX season was from the outside, I think it perhaps was a bit of an eye opener for Feld and now they may be more willing to collaborate and mix things up. A deal like this could be more sustainable for all parties involved long term. All speculation on my part, of course.
What says the Vital brain trust?

The Shop
Feld is merging Supercross with Disney on Ice.
Personally , I hope DC never stops running the Nationals. The guy is a true to life , die hard moto fan that lives , eats and breath's this sport. And that is exactly the type of guy I want running our nationals.
Again though , I'm lost on all this , because I don't listen to podcasts.
Cooksey >>> Blair >>> everyone else
on the "throw out crazy shit" meter for the moto media (I'm not including Johnny Hopper, he's not media).
Pit Row
Talk about 100% positive for the fans and the riders.
Just checked with reality...that will never happen. Sh*t.
