Gonna be sexton a few seconds behind jett all summer again.  😭.   Not that tomac was going to beat Jett, but at least it would have given one more person with a slight chance of maybe finishing in front of Jett if the cards fell just right.

Bennett Fractures are no joke. Takes time to heal and pain/soreness lasts a while for MX riders since they put some much stress on thumbs...

I heard somewhere that If he just used REP suspension with data telemetry by Mark Johnson his bike would be so smooth surgery wouldn't be necessary

He had many years that were injury free (at least to the public) during the Kawi days. Sucks to see the injury inevitability of the sport finally catching up to him now. You’d think a guy of his caliber has the title or bust mindset, wouldn’t be surprised if he does sit out the summer and come back next year for SX.

Man what a bummer. The ink probably wasn't even dry on his outdoor contract.. Hopefully he can bounce back for the back half of the season and finals, then come out swinging for 25.

No perfection for Jett, as 23, 94, 96 and 21 will all finish in front of him at least one time.

I like Grant Harlan but that's quite a stretch

Because they were all sooooooo close last year, and all of them got faster while the 18 stayed the same?
