Mathis is getting weeded out of the pro pits one team at a time he and his almighty will be outsiders soon.

Really sweet I'm a Big fan of All the Allessi's
I was even when they were on Mini's I got to watch them race once on 85,s at Hangtown and once at Glen Helen
And I went to Mike's first pro race at millville
Which was a fun Day , and even if the results dont show it he really was fast that day , had a couple get offs one I saw in the whoops. But I really was believing thre Hype.

Great lineup!
I like how Tony has owned up to his actions in the past. He’s a guy with a lot of heart and commitment for his job. That’s all we really want is for people to be honest. Kinda like how Barcia came around this year.

On the show, Genova is one again alluding to limitations placed by Feld and at the Nats on marketing products. "RCH-- it cost them millions to win."
It's a good episode to listen to for a team owner's perspective on the sport- it's not a happy one, though. Genova said he got audited by the IRS over his team and after four hours they said "you're nuts, and you're clean."
It's insane that teams have to spend millions to earn championships that are worth nothing. That's not a sustainable model.
It's impossible for a corporation or government to love you or care about you.

It's Worth Something, but maybe that something isnt wealth

Tony Alessi for Team USA manager! Love that guy. Great stuff, Steve!
He would compete as hard as a manager as the riders would.

I’m about midway through. Anyone know what Berluti and JT were referring to about Rossi losing his ride etc. I’m no Moto GP follower but he is one of few I’m familiar with.

I think you misheard. They were talking about the guy that grabbed a competitors front brake mid-race. THAT guy had a bike at Rossi's years ago..and JT rode it when he was there with Chad. Rossi did not lose his ride.
Here's to feeling good all the time

Tony Alessi works his ass off giving back to this sport. My hat’s off to the guy, I’m a big fan.

Glad Tony A. turned it around for the good. He made some mistakes, but being a dead beat Dad ain't one of them. Probably a few on board wishing their father would have put in the effort Tony has... myself included.
There's something happening here, what it is ain't exactly clear.

Romano Fenati (Moto 2 rider) grabbed a competitors brake on a long straight and lost his ride for 19 and 20. Fenati used to be a VR46 academy rider (got fired from that too) = training at Rossis ranch and JT got to ride Fenatis Flat track bike at the ranch.
