The stylish rider has been nowhere to be seen since he stopped riding in Canada, then suddenly he is all over Instagram.

I thought he wasn't very fond of socialmedia stuff, but suddenly he is posting all the time being extremely positive about pretty much everything.

I remember him saying pretty negative stuff about MXGP(some of them true) when he left for USA. Now everything is great.

Why this change of personality? Is he looking for a job as a riders coach, is this the written conditions for his gig at Just1?

Nice too see him back, but I'm curious for what reasons.

He is back in the US now, but still extremely positive.

whatever pills he is on I want some of them...lol

You wouldnt be happy if retire age of 25 with millions in bank and still getting paid just to wear t-shirt with logo?
If he could transfer part of his speed, creative and faster lines to new riders they should call him right away.

Although he was one of the best riders in the world, maybe he couldn’t relax and be himself with all the pressure of racing and winning. Look at RV now, his personality is coming out, maybe now Pourcel is done racing he is more relaxed and able to enjoy everything!

Make that 3 of us. He’s always made it look so easy and back in those PC Kawi days he was was faster than everyone on the track. Unless you looked at lap times you’d never think he was the fastest, either because he always appeared to be cruising. Unreal speed, great throttle control, effortless technique—probably the smoothest rider I’ve ever seen.

Been always a big fan of him! Still bye the way and I really got the feeling that if he didn't broke his neck two times in one year (supercross and outdoors) he would've end up back fighting for podiums and maybe even wins. He was really gelling with that 450 Husqvarna like he only did with that 250 Kawasaki.

But that he thrown the towel after those two injuries I understand completely! Ryan Dungey has done the same after his neck injury. He broke his C6, wanted to quite directly but raced supercross after some talking with Aldon and he didn't had the same history then Pourcel with being paralyzed and coming back. Such injuries are sometimes very intens to deal with mentally.

I thought he became a US citizen after his last season of AMA Nats? Seems to be an awful lot of work to go through that process just to move back to France.
