Malcolm Smith RIP, one of the old veterans that this sport supplied over the past 50 years...

[@jkell411]

How to prove your series is a joke: Don't penalize a rider for blatant dangerous actions resulting in injury. Let said rider race a race he didn't even qualify for.

[@kjpr00]

Worst part is it isn't the series' fault, it's the stewards appointed by the FIM. Though I'm not shocked. As a MotoGP fan I'm used to the FIM stewards making a mess there too.

[@jkell411]

@kjpr00, I don't think they're too bad in MotoGP though. They get some calls wrong for sure, but not as bad as in mx. They will be better starting next year, too. Simon Crafar is the new Chairman of the FIM Stewards.

[@gabrielgibson4355]

They won’t get rid of him because people pay for the drama he brings. Everyone says they don’t want to see someone get hurt but in reality it makes people pay attention more. This makes a ton of money because they know Vince is a problem and the other riders hate him.

[@jkell411]

@gabrielgibson4355, people aren't buying tickets to watch Vince. Period. That is a laughable concept. He doesn't provide the competitive type of racing most people actually want to see.

[@gabrielgibson4355]

@ you completely misunderstood. They’re watching the chaos he creates with major rider like roczen deano tomac etc. controversy brings up conversation and media gets to cover it. Then the riders bring up Vince’s name more and more, giving him publicity. This in return brings media money, more viewers, and fans who always need a villain in sports. You may hate him but entertainment comes in many forms.

[@Sleepy.Time.]

Weston needs to come out of retirement to punch some sense into Vince

[@omnibud2708]

I think the AUS sx series has been much better than wsx

[@ThorneyGryffon]

Seems more relevant than ever the sport start paying the manufacturers sone of the millions rhey pull in instead of having them shoulder the burden for all the expenses and payments to the riders.

[@joebrock2470]

The American full factory bike is still a production based bike anyways right?

[@vitalmx]

Has to have a homologated chassis, engine cases, and a few other items. It's built from a production bike.

[@Mbowman223]

Deeno has crashed EVERY Race...

[@donnieburger3721]

you think KTM built that socal complex thinking deegan wouldnt leave KTM now he's gone and so is all there money 🤣

[@jpesicka492]

No, that building was finished last year Deegan has been gone from KTM for a couple years now. They didn’t build a $53M HQ for one rider.

[@churchofbrap876]

Is there room for all these manufacturers in motocross? Beta, triumph and Ducati coming. CFmoto probably coming too.

[@andrewdudley3905]

Some ain't gonna last

[@omahaomaha8694]

AMA and wsx needs to ban Vince from the sport

[@workhardplayhard3206]

i wonder if u can sue him

[@franciscote]

he should be ban from pro racing. That's it. He doesn't learn anything. Frize need to go OUT please.

[@fenwick101e]

WSX is load of bollocks 😂

[@powersportsenthusiast1986]

"moley"? if it was "beat-uh" it would have two Es not one. good video anyway

[@LewisPhillips71]

That’s how they are pronounced in Europe… I normally correct myself but must have been in too much of a flow to catch it.

[@tonyornelas9374]

The sport needs to get rid of Vince and Justin barcia.
