2025 Supercross Preview - Rider Interviews - Cycle News

[@House_of_Zodd]

Its wild to me how a bike can be amazing for the average rider and the pros will hate it. There really just is levels to the game

[@cyclenews]

Oh yeah, especially when these guys are so picky with their set ups. They're the best in the biz.

[@House_of_Zodd]

@cyclenews it's also a lot easier to be picky when you have a personal team of mechanics and free parts.

[@AI4Ever2219]

They come from Factory rides in amateur classes, where no body has them but them. So they look great. Then they get where all bikes are equal and fail….FAKE IT TILL YOU MAKE IT.

For everyone tripping on the general attitude… they might be racing in an apocalyptic inferno if those fires don’t calm down.

[@cyclenews]

The fires are more than an hour away from where the race is held.

[@Leggoeljefeblu]

Jo didn’t seem too happy with where he’s at

[@cyclenews]

His response was a bit vague. Not sure what to make of it.

[@underthetrees4780]

​@@cyclenews he doesn't like the bike but can't shit on his team

@@underthetrees4780 Exactly.

[@MrHkballer1]

There is zero confidence in his response and voice. He's not going to be comfortable unless they make some drastic changes quick. But drastic changes are the perfect storm for injuries. I hope he has a decent season.

[@David_peo1982]

Whats going on with jo doesn't look confident was looking at someone for help hopefully he does something amazing he is good

[@MX-CO]

Something definitely seems off his own expectations aren't even there

[@paulrash8861]

Something is going on, possibly injured 🤔

[@underthetrees4780]

​@paulrash8861 he doesn't like the Honda, no one really does, makes me wonder how good the Lawrence's would be on something else.

[@cyclenews]

Jo is usually pretty quiet and camera shy. Another thing is sometimes the riders aren't as clued in on what's "all new" with the new bike. They are told here's the bike, go ride it. He is racing west so he should have some time on the '25 model but also might not know what was changed. Just food for thought.

Joe will be fast when he gets his elbows up

Funny how Chance is a teammate of the Lawrence sisters but Jo a guy that was supposed to be their friend they push aside

Sounds like Jo misses that PC Kawasaki

[@LiverpoolFC914]

The 250 Honda is shit and has been for years , Jett & Hunter are superior riders and won titles on the same equipment

[@Kyle-k4w]

​@@LiverpoolFC914 Lawrence brothers didn't come here winning. Johnny O has turned them into what they are now. Jett would still be getting ahead of himself and braking calorbones and Hunter would have retired after getting sick and having no energy for the first few years.

[@jordanross7205]

Jo’s inability to articulate himself regarding the bike can’t be winning him any lenience with Honda.

[@waynecaudle2204]

@@jordanross7205I don’t think he cares he made a mistake and would love to get out of it

[@jordanross7205]

@ maybe, I hadn’t thought about that but there’s a good chance he was on a better bike at pro circuit

[@SLAYJUCE]

Deegs looking defensive

[@cyclenews]

Seems like none of them like when we ask about injuries.

[@kevinalleman162]

Why are some of these guys waiting so late to get back on the bike. I mean i get it they deserve a break. But why get completely off the bike for so long. Why not practice for shorter times. At least your staying sharp and when its time to really get after it your ready to go.

[@cyclenews]

This video was filmed back in December during the SMX media day, so some of the times may seem longer than normal.

I'm gonna predict Hunter Lawrence will move over to Star Yamaha next season after tomac retires. Reason 1: Hunter hasn't won anything on the 450 yet. He's completely content following his baby brother as well as teammate, and trust me, that gets really old. Reason 2, money, hunter will be freed up to really challenge Jett head to head for win bonus $$ and not have to worry about honda management getting pissed off if the two brothers really go at it on the track. It definitely would make for great racing all the way around.

[@kevinalleman162]

Hell no. That won't happen.

[@Tommyp65]

@kevinalleman162 lol, we'll see.

[@kevinalleman162]

@@Tommyp65 haiden will fill in for tomac.

[@Tommyp65]

@kevinalleman162 that's very possible. However, star is gonna need a 450 rider with experience until Deegan gets up to speed on the 450. Plus, Deegan and Hunter are pretty good friends.

[@kevinalleman162]

@@Tommyp65lol yea ok

[@Kyle-k4w]

RJ Hampshire definitely doesn't want to go West coast against deegan

[@cyclenews]

Hampshire is still recovering from a wrist injury and is likely to race east. Will be cool to see him go against Vialle.

[@michaelhoward7652]

​maybe he can scream at haiden again in the shootouts ,lol tat worked well for him

Hymus is a bust, I’m a hater.. 😊

[@DTM45]

I like 3-4 American riders. Hayden has fire inside and wants to win at all cost. Can do without the kangaroo’s.
