Well said man! I agree 100% with your faith in Joe Shimoda! I had hoped he would have been fighting more this year, seeing how strong he finished last season. There is still hope! Go Shimoda!!!
James, Awesome job. Would love to hear you explain how you see Chase on a KTM next year, how Chase is on bike set-up working with him. One would think he has people behind him that can fix the issues you are talking about? Jett is consistent, building confidence, and presumably going to get a bit better to say the least for the up coming years. We dont see anyone changing their riding to be able to rise up to catch Jett, do you? Everyone have a great day!!
I’m personally looking forward to RJ moving up to 450. Imo I feel like he’s trying to ride the 250 too hard kinda and that’s what leads to a lot of his downfalls. I think when he gets to 450s as long as he gets better starts he will do real good. Mostly because the 450 has enough power that he won’t have to worry about riding it so hard therefor he will be able focus on his style and technique more
James! Thank you for starting this show and doing commentary for the races. Its great to still have you in the sport, and to hear from inside a racers mind to go with the standard broadcasters we get. JS7 will always be my favorite rider all time, gotta put Beast Mode Tomac as a second. Your right on about Sextons bike setup, i have been watching it lately and its like his whole bike is a seesaw, bouncing up and down as a whole, instead of the suspension working to keep the bike stable, didn't know it was a rebound issue, but know i do
Still to this day I show all my buddies that race if they’ve never seen it, watched it live when I was 14 and it’s a memory that’s burned into my head.
Hey James,thanks for talking about Sextons suspension today. All of his crashes this season have been the front end washing out and I don't believe it's the rider. I also believe that the Star Yamaha team has changed Hadens suspension the last couple races because you can see him fighting the bike the entire race and not be able to flow like the racer he is. Good to see you back and enjoying the sport again!
Not even just this season. You can go all the way back to last year outdoors and 90% of chase’s crashes are from the front end tucking. While I agree that a lot of it might be the bike, I also think a big part of it is his riding style. Imo it seems like chase is either going all or nothing. If he could just smooth it out a little bit I think it would improve that situation a lot. Instead of pushing into the corner super hard and then banging out of the corner all out, he should come into the corner maybe a little softer which will allow him to flow through it a little smoother continuously rolling on the throttle to where by the time he’s exiting he’s still all out but having a smoother transition getting to that “all out” because he will be carrying more momentum all the way through the corner. I prolly made that sound confusing af but in my head it made sense lol I hate saying “just watch out Jett does it” but he’s a perfect example of how to carry smooth corner speed. And I think that’s where Jett always beats chase. Is chase can smooth out that corner speed then he can beat Jett no question
I think Chase's Honda suspension woes go back much farther. I still Blame Honda Suspension for Kenny's career. They had to send Brayton's Aussie SX Winning forks directly to Kenny's triple clamps before he won again. I love Hondas, but I hope Chase will take to KTM like Ryan Dungey did--and I'm rooting ET3 forever.
Jet is special!the posture the effortlessly he is riding with such speed is something to see.Im from Europe,never saw Jett riding live,but I’m from slovenian and I raced and watched my friend 5 time mxgp champion Tim Gajser.His riding is extremely aggressive,kinda like James Stewart,every corner on full,every jump scrub,just maniac style!
At the beginning of ur show i wasn’t so sure what to expect of ur videos… NOW I can’t wait to see ur race analysis, i dont know if there is anyone out there that can break down the race, the raider, and the bike like u do…. Great job… WHEN U WORKED WITH CHASE, how is that he didn’t understood you 😂. Even I understand everything u r saying! And it makes sense to me!
Jett is generational. He’s a Stewart/Ricky level talent. As a talent alone he’s above even RV and Dungey. But currently Jett is benefiting from not only being the young new thing, all the confidence in the world, and evidently ahead of his time, but also has the best bike in the class as of now. I believe Chase has every bit of enough speed to challenge Jett lap for lap. Jett will certainly win many championships over his career, but I believe he will be challenged in the following years, by guys like Chase, by Haiden eventually. I think this is the best spot the sports been in for a long time in terms of the talent coming through. We needed these generational talents to revive the sport.
Watching Tomac come through the pack to take race wins the last 10ish years in the 450 class is what made it super exciting to watch. As good as Jett is, its been a bit boring this year. The 250 class on the other hand has been awesome and watching Hunter come through the pack to take the wins has kept the racing super fun to watch.
Hell yea 1st comment Yo i seen the AMA trucks last night in Montana! I tried to get a shirt or two from the truck but it didnt work! Lol im homesick I miss FL so bad! Thanks JS7 for helping my homesickness
As always, awesome commentary! One thing everyone is missing about Jett and Millville moto 1. He was running the scoop, took that thing off for moto 2, passed a stumbling Chase on lap 1 and pulled away to never look back or feel threatened.
Just love seeing different reasons why Chase didn't win week in week out. It's the "mono" , it's the "no race starts" and now its the "bike setup". He's actually faster than Jett every weekend (your words not mine), jet Jett spanks him EVERY weekend. Chases 100% is Jetts 85%, good day!
Haiden is solid, but i believe he came in at 100% compared to Rj, Jo, Levi, and Justin, Haiden has a solid mentality, the others seem to rely on confidence to really step up race over race. i think what were seeing in Haiden is not so much a bad weekend, but the actual competition in that class, its stacked and Haidens biggest friend is definitely his mental and consistency. We can about guarantee Jo, Rj, Justin, Levi and others are going to be more inconsistent even though they are definitely faster overall, but not consistent.
Well put, After hearing James talk about Haiden at the start, I feel like Haiden has received the Private School education of Dirtbike Racers. I bet he was getting college level sports psychology when his contemporaries were trading english class to fill the van with gas. I hope he can stay smart and stay off the ground.
All I've heard the last couple of races is, Chase is this and that and so much faster, but I can't remember him finishing in front of Jett, or am I watching different races to everyone else?
Great job on the videos, need you back in the booth. Going to Washougal this weekend, Jett will win, but hopefully we get more of the same 250 competition. Keep it going.
Curious on how you think its bike setup compared to technique and simply being a tad bit slower. Regarding chase's bike being better for downhill, do you think it could be that Jett just isn't pushing as hard down the hill cause he doesn't need to. Is Jett just smoother and able to keep his bike on the ground over the rollers / bumps? Can Jett just take turns better? I know little things can make a world of difference on a bike, but I am not so sure Jett is simply better overall. Even the starts. Like Jett is just better.
Yes, it's true, you are the fastest man on the planet. Fastest man to ever throw his leg over dirt bike. But can we get a little faster with the new episode? 😂
Next year gunna be dead IMO, Lawrence Brothers running 450 and all of Deegan competition will be gone...Hunter, RJ, Cooper and Jo all gunna move up. It'll just be Deegan, Levi and Vialle
@@cash3015 I was just talking 450. Speaking of 250, I think clearing the way for the next class of kids is the way to go. Deegan isn’t even old enough to buy tobacco and Hunter is 5 years older than Jett. Deegan has been keeping up with seasoned pros as a child.
Yeah it's starting to look like he might go on a history making run. He's going to lose races but he's going to be hard to beat for titles. He's too consistent and controlled. This kid is so far beyond where you would expect a 19 year old to be. He looks like the veteran out there managing Chase like he's the young upstart. Him winning is starting to seem inevitable and the competition looks like they can feel it. I wouldn't be at all surprised if he wins the three "playoff" rounds just as comfortably, then puts on a clinic in sx next year. He's been better indoors on the 250 and his style on the 450 seems like it will be next to impossible to beat indoors.
I have always been the best at everything I’ve done. Electrician. Roofing. Machinist. City manager. And everything else. I wish I would have started riding Moto. I would have been the best that’s ever been. I just know it. 😂😂. And Haiden is riding careful. He needs to let that snitch rip and Fck it.
Him and Chase do have different suspension but that's due to Chase running that BFR shock some of the euro guys use. Jett has a conventional Showa a kit shock. It just looks so much better because Jett let's the bike move much more fluidly and doesn't rely on the suspension to soak up his body weight as much.
@@seanhaberman4619 I prefer my conspiracy of a one-off maybe illegal rear shock. What ever it is it works. I noticed it in the first race, the bike just tracks and absorbs and doesn't flop around. It's like Citroen Suspension from the 1960's..... the best suspension ever. (except for active suspension of course)
When(if) Jett gets beat, i think the monkey is off his back and will truly unleash him. I think he’s focused on being perfect, but if there’s nothing to be perfect for it’ll just be a win at all cost type jett like we saw in the 250’s
It looked closer than it was. Chase never made a pass attempt and Jett looked a lot more in control at that pace than he did. The first lap and a half after Chase caught him in moto 1 was his best chance to get by. After that Jett settled down and looked like he was holding him off pretty comfortably. Even if Chase held on to his start in moto 2 I don't see a scenario where he could have held him off. Jett could either pressure him into a mistake or just straight up go around him as the track got rougher. Jett looked like he could put the bike almost anywhere on the track and still go fast. Chase on the other hand was trying to hit his marks and not make a mistake. Chase is pretty close to Jett in outright speed, but there's more to winning than being able to go fast. Jett has him beat by a lot when it comes to bike control, line selection, and mental focus. If Chase starts maybe 6-8 positions ahead of Jett and builds a 12 second lead in the first 3 laps I think he can hold him off. Otherwise I don't see it happening. Jett has Chase covered right now and it's pretty easy to see.
I mean I take every word James says as gospel. It would be pretty insane to see the trophies behind him and knowing what he has done on a bike to even question anything he says is pure insanity
IF ET was winning races BC Chase gifted so many wins what makes u guys think he Would beat Jett? He’s faster than chase just curious but LFG CS23 I’m w ya
JAMES IS WRONG ABOUT ONE THING chase new he could catch Jet, because he seen jet had switched from the scoop tire to the mx 33 Chase new instantly FROM THE hole shot when he pulled away so easily from jet that is why he new he could catch Jet . There's an interview chase said he was laughing in his helmet because he pulled on him
Competition i think Haiden will end up 2nd or 3rd he’s consistent and a bulldog out there he also i call hime the enrgizer bunny he keeps going and going and going
At 2:22 - 2:26 what the heck was a solid steel yellow Cat bulldozer doing moving onto the left edge of the track on the long downhill? Actually its blade was on to the live racing track. If a rider gets out of shape and hits that they will be dead on the spot. Dozers do not move or give an inch. Such stupid actions by track maintenance. I bet no one spoke up about this big hazard.
I'm constantly screaming at the broadcast when I see 2nd place catching 1st to move the cameras. Whoever is in charge of switching the cameras on tv needs to get smacked.
Hunter trains with the top 450 guys every single day, hes older than then too. Why hes on 250 is still baffling, hes sand bagging, his top competition is a 17 year old rookie. Sorry not sorry hes not impressive. Hes not where he belong.
I agree that I'd much rather see him in 450 though, that's where he belongs... His skill and experience is well ahead of everyone else in 250 although Deegan's consistency has been impressive
You sound new to the sport. Hunter didn't come here until he was like 19 and then had 3 years of health issues. He almost retired a couple years back because he didn't think he would ever be able to get back to being healthy. So this is like his 2nd year of being in a position to actually compete for a title. This happens all the time and it's why there's so many older guys on 250s. There's been dozens of talented young guys who come in, look amazing, and get hurt or something right off the bat. Then they rush coming back because they feel like they can't spend too much time away and they just keep getting hurt. And since they can't finish a season they don't win titles like they could have and never get a 450 ride. Austin Forkner and Jeremy Martin are prime examples of guys who could have been the next big thing if their luck had been a bit better. The 250 class isn't a semi pro league like other sports have. It's professional racing. In any professional sport, or job in general, there's no age groups. You compete against whoever shows up. All these guys are trying to do the same thing regardless of age, earn a spot in the premiere class. The guys who are a little older now dealt with the same thing today's rookies are dealing with. That's just how it's always been, and why it's so special when a rookie shows up a dominates. Guys like Ryan Villopoto, James Stewart, and Eli Tomac all came in as teens and beat grown ass men. It's no different for today's kids.
@@seanhaberman4619 The main difference is we used to have 3 classes, 125, 250, 500. Now we have 250 and 450. Maybe we need a 350 in between the two. It would be a good separation and would give more spots for factories as well as creating a new niche for 350 bike sales. More people equals more interest.
I want Hunter to win the title...but a very small margin. I want to see relief and joy on his face rather than that smug look he has on the podium. More importantly, he needs to not have another brain fart at the MXdN.
If chase had better technique he would beat Jett. Is it just me or is that kinda like saying nothing. If Chase was better than Jett he would be better than Jett haha.
James, I have watched your video and Ricky's video in regard to the stress and strain of being a motocross racer. Because the sport is so difficult - and dangerous - do you feel you would risked your well being SO MANY TIMES if your family's (the entire Stewart clan) prosperity did not rely so heavily on your success?

When(if) Jett gets beat, i think the monkey is off his back and will truly unleash him. I think he’s focused on being perfect, but if there’s nothing to be perfect for it’ll just be a win at all cost type jett like we saw in the 250’s
L bro's smoke everyone again! Showing they're the best riders by far in each class.
JS7 is super sharp 👊
Thought chase was going to catch jett in both motos. So close.
It looked closer than it was. Chase never made a pass attempt and Jett looked a lot more in control at that pace than he did. The first lap and a half after Chase caught him in moto 1 was his best chance to get by. After that Jett settled down and looked like he was holding him off pretty comfortably.
Even if Chase held on to his start in moto 2 I don't see a scenario where he could have held him off. Jett could either pressure him into a mistake or just straight up go around him as the track got rougher. Jett looked like he could put the bike almost anywhere on the track and still go fast. Chase on the other hand was trying to hit his marks and not make a mistake.
Chase is pretty close to Jett in outright speed, but there's more to winning than being able to go fast. Jett has him beat by a lot when it comes to bike control, line selection, and mental focus. If Chase starts maybe 6-8 positions ahead of Jett and builds a 12 second lead in the first 3 laps I think he can hold him off. Otherwise I don't see it happening. Jett has Chase covered right now and it's pretty easy to see.
I mean I take every word James says as gospel. It would be pretty insane to see the trophies behind him and knowing what he has done on a bike to even question anything he says is pure insanity
IF ET was winning races BC Chase gifted so many wins what makes u guys think he Would beat Jett? He’s faster than chase just curious but LFG CS23 I’m w ya
I think Deeg's sore from the Mill
If I was Hunter I would be happy for and pissed off at my little brother at the same time.
Can Malcolm get you James ?
Just saying
Same class, same coast, Hunter sticks an elbow into Jets ribs first corner. It's going to be fun to watch them race when it happens.
JAMES IS WRONG ABOUT ONE THING
chase new he could catch Jet, because he seen jet had switched from the scoop tire to the mx 33 Chase new instantly FROM THE hole shot when he pulled away so easily from jet that is why he new he could catch Jet . There's an interview chase said he was laughing in his helmet because he pulled on him
Hayden will end up 3rd…..maybe 4th. With Cooper getting better and Shimoda and few other coming to form Hayden will drop down.
Very possible indeed
Competition i think Haiden will end up 2nd or 3rd he’s consistent and a bulldog out there he also i call hime the enrgizer bunny he keeps going and going and going
Sitting under them trophies.,..
At 2:22 - 2:26 what the heck was a solid steel yellow Cat bulldozer doing moving onto the left edge of the track on the long downhill? Actually its blade was on to the live racing track.
If a rider gets out of shape and hits that they will be dead on the spot. Dozers do not move or give an inch.
Such stupid actions by track maintenance. I bet no one spoke up about this big hazard.
JS7 & RC from 2006 would they beat Jett if they were dropped in 2023? DV asked this on Pulp curious to see ur answers..
Fuck yeah they would win; that's a no brainer. TF you dudes smoking?
@@bunnyman6321 I’m asking the question DV asked on pulp he said Jett would win so I Deff would take JS for sure RC
@gawdszn302 Yeah DV can kiss my ass. Tell him what I typed.
You the Man Gawdszn302
I'm constantly screaming at the broadcast when I see 2nd place catching 1st to move the cameras. Whoever is in charge of switching the cameras on tv needs to get smacked.
Stews commentary>>>> Ricky’s commentary. And it’s not even close.
I wonder if degan got injured
Me too
James christ
Hunter trains with the top 450 guys every single day, hes older than then too. Why hes on 250 is still baffling, hes sand bagging, his top competition is a 17 year old rookie. Sorry not sorry hes not impressive. Hes not where he belong.
what about hampshire, or craig, or jmart? Even Cooper is 25... By that logic they are sandbagging too, correct?
I agree that I'd much rather see him in 450 though, that's where he belongs... His skill and experience is well ahead of everyone else in 250 although Deegan's consistency has been impressive
You sound new to the sport. Hunter didn't come here until he was like 19 and then had 3 years of health issues. He almost retired a couple years back because he didn't think he would ever be able to get back to being healthy. So this is like his 2nd year of being in a position to actually compete for a title.
This happens all the time and it's why there's so many older guys on 250s. There's been dozens of talented young guys who come in, look amazing, and get hurt or something right off the bat. Then they rush coming back because they feel like they can't spend too much time away and they just keep getting hurt. And since they can't finish a season they don't win titles like they could have and never get a 450 ride. Austin Forkner and Jeremy Martin are prime examples of guys who could have been the next big thing if their luck had been a bit better.
The 250 class isn't a semi pro league like other sports have. It's professional racing. In any professional sport, or job in general, there's no age groups. You compete against whoever shows up. All these guys are trying to do the same thing regardless of age, earn a spot in the premiere class. The guys who are a little older now dealt with the same thing today's rookies are dealing with. That's just how it's always been, and why it's so special when a rookie shows up a dominates. Guys like Ryan Villopoto, James Stewart, and Eli Tomac all came in as teens and beat grown ass men. It's no different for today's kids.
@@seanhaberman4619 The main difference is we used to have 3 classes, 125, 250, 500. Now we have 250 and 450. Maybe we need a 350 in between the two. It would be a good separation and would give more spots for factories as well as creating a new niche for 350 bike sales. More people equals more interest.
@@snowzZzZz hampshire craig nor cooper isnt training with top 450 riders ... dont include cooper coz he didnt even want to be put in 450s SX
I want Hunter to win the title...but a very small margin. I want to see relief and joy on his face rather than that smug look he has on the podium.
More importantly, he needs to not have another brain fart at the MXdN.
Thank you , and never ever vote todays Democrat!
If chase had better technique he would beat Jett. Is it just me or is that kinda like saying nothing. If Chase was better than Jett he would be better than Jett haha.
James, I have watched your video and Ricky's video in regard to the stress and strain of being a motocross racer. Because the sport is so difficult - and dangerous - do you feel you would risked your well being SO MANY TIMES if your family's (the entire Stewart clan) prosperity did not rely so heavily on your success?
