Where was Roger?

We have this thing called the internet now where you can film and send video and transfer bike data acquisition information. Plus even speak to the suspension, engine specialist and even the rider. Mind blown right?

In addition to being the team manager for the MXoN weekend, Roger also oversees KTM and Husky racers here in the U.S. Bobby Hewitt would have been the manager for the Rockstar Energy Racing Husqvarna team.

The team management isn't in Florida every day when they're working with Aldon.

I doubt he'd make a difference if he was there 2 months early. What do you expect? Him to unveil a secret plan that no one knows about? To the USA moto gods, his appearance of being there and being part of the team is more important than what he actually offers to the team. It's not the NFL where we need to decide how to run the quarterback to the touchdown zone and have 8 guys help him do that. I'd love to believe there's more to this race but it is what it is. 3 guys need to go out and finish as good as possible. Some team efforts are involved in letting a rider take a gate pick but unfortunately there's not much more to it from a 'team manager' stand point, it's pretty straight forward. I really need to stay away from the Vital forums...

The Man knows where he is supposed to be.

He is there purely for show.

If only he was there, he could have told Jason not to crash into cooper! 🤪

Didn’t Cooper crash into Jason?

Yes, Cooper took out Jason.

He was at the race and they were on it the whole weekend. The US team tried their everything, but the starts (on Sunday) and the luck was not on their side this time. No blame on the guys or the team.

I thought it was interesting that he brought up the lack of seating/viewing area at MXDN......... a little jab for poor team treatment????

Well said!!

Roger can't ride the bikes for them. Anybody that thinks "The Man" isn't still a very very valuable asset to our team is delusional!

No surprise.

Argued with Luongo over 60 free passes
