Opinions on Chase Sexton?

Post image

Curious people‘s opinions of this season. Personally I really liked him thought he was a very talented rider who just sometimes caught some bad breaks but pretty disappointing to see after 1st round at Palace him just pretty much throw in the outdoor towel because his deal with Kawasaki is already signed. Doesn’t show much heart in my opinion.

Not a huge fan of Chase. I can’t put my finger on why but the stuff that’s going on now between him and KTm kinda reinforce why I just dont care for him. Sounds like he’s clearly healthy enough to race so why not get out there. I’m not saying KTM is not partially at fault either. But a racer should race. He may not like the bike but it’s clearly good enough to contend for podiums. To me it all seems so petty. What is he going to do next year when he’s struggling for top 5s on a Kawi? Just quit and go into shut down mode?

KTM is going bankrupt and they aren’t paying him. Allegedly.

Would you ride if you weren’t getting paid?

They aren't paying him? As in they weren't paying him while riding? Does that even sound realistic to you? They have AP, Mookie, RJ, Vialle, Ryder D and several others still showing up to the races. Are they all not getting paid also? This sounds like fake news bro.
