- It was a hectic week for Jett Lawrence. Monday brought the announcement of return home to Australia in November as part of the AUS-X Open race, Tuesday the practice crash that resulted in a broken thumb that ended his 450 MX title defense, Wednesday was spent traveling to Colorado for an appointment at the Steadman Clinic, Thursday was his first-ever surgery to repair the ligament damage, Friday was another flight but this time to Chicago, and Saturday was spent on the side of the track at the RedBud Motocross.
After the race was over, we got a few moments with the Team Honda HRC rider to discuss the incident, announcements for AUS-X and the Motocross of Nations, and what comes next for his summer. - Sport
What great attitude, how can anyone not appreciate that uplifting maturity. 👍
Jett is a great young man. Definitely a great ambassador of the sport.
Wishing you a speedy recovery Jett!
This is why the Lawrence brothers are so successful! Both have a great outlook on life, which comes from magnificent parents!
Rookie for AMA at 16 years old.
4 years later has won every title AMA has at 20 years old.
Motocross related yes. Hasnt touched anything street bike or even enduro. Which he 100% should do after 6 or 7 years depending on how championships play out
@@superegghead13 that would be dope forsure
For anyone who doesn’t like Jet it’s probably because they are jealous of his ability to win races in the premier class without what they think is earning it by getting smoked for a few years first. But when you listen to him you’d know why if you really listen and he works his butt off 🤔❤🙏
I don’t hate him at all just his character sometimes
However he has matured feel bad for his injuries
Sounds like a good kid, but as an American I’m rooting my fellow countrymen 🤷♂️🇺🇸
Makes racing boring when only one guy dominates, but no doubt he's already one of the greats
@@SeparadoresAtecon I have to agree with you. I am a big fan of Jett but it is nice to see somebody else win. I really like Hunter and Chase also so I’m not sure who to pull for.
I'm a Jett fanboy.
The next GOAT !
One good thing to come with being out it gives his niggling shoulder time to heal properly.
And hip injury from same get off.
U mean nagging shoulder?
@@jpesicka999 nope .
A very mature 20-year-old. Especially in this sport.
Before reading any comments I thought he has matured a bunch in just a year.
He is the least mature guy Ive ever seen. Maybe his brother! Still the man tho
@@jmx318 I’m 68, raised a couple of my own boys, a daughter…and other foster kids. Taught kids from 3-25. I’m sorry but you don’t know what you are talking about.

Go back to your troll hole
Well said he has come along way and now his blossoming into a fine young man
Gentlemen off the track.. beast on the track
Come back healthy and ready Jett! The sport isn't the same without you!
Jett is not the rider I root for. I get news Wednesday late that he is out?!
My reaction is opposite of what I even thought it would be if this happened.
My first thought that hit me, I was bummed out and would say depressed by the end of the week.
We had a good battle already and I rather let the chips fall, the best man win instead of favoring a rider I want to win.
Can you imagine if we had Roczen, Tomac, Benny, Webb, Jett, Barcia, (I am forgetting someone?)all in at least 90% health coming into Red Bud this weekend?!!!!
I know, I can dream....and you cant take that away from me
I know what you're saying, but Motocross can be a cruel sport sometimes. Very rare to have a full field, no injuries.
Hope Jett takes time to enjoy the holiday, he could come back refreshed and better than ever.
I was at redbud and saw him with the headset on at the top of the ski jump
Honestly a blessing for him... imagine not being injured for his whole career... he has been racing in EU since 2014... thats 10 years of his life already dedicated to training, eating right, testing, racing... it oculd well be another 10 years of that... theres no time to just be a kid, be a teen. Hopefull he has a good break and gets to see the F! or something
Bummed that Jett is out...I'm hoping Hunter can hold off Sexton but not that confident
In 11 or 12 years or more i reckon Jett will be apart of broadcast team like RC and JS7
Onya Jett ❤🇦🇺
I pray for a speedy recovery
All round Champion ❤
Absolute legend, bad luck it happens
jett seems so much lighter. think this injury is a blessing.
Probably the best dirt racer in the world.
Wise words from the champ..realizing how LUCKY hes been with avoiding injuries. All the arrogant Aussie fanboys would never admit that fact when id caution them to quit being so damn cocky about Jetts championship streak. Jett deserves better fans.
Your obviously only encountering the vocal minority
you’re calling all of Jetts australian fans arrogant?
maybe look in the mirror
@@neildon2216 I'm an Aussie, & that's not how I read his comment.
There are plenty of Dickhead fans in America & Australia, unfortunately, but thankfully not the majority, imo.
You only have to read some of the juvenile, ignorant shitposts on CZcams, though, to turn you off some of them.
@@chasecrosland7401 well I never see any reasonable Aussie Jett fans stepping in and telling the loud mouth ones to STFU so...
@@neildon2216 I'm not making this up, bud....every social media site for the past year has been nonstop Jett glazing. From my experience, primarily Aussies running their mouths about how Jett will never be beaten, Eli and Webb are trash with their weak thumb injuries, and just spewing nonstop arrogance about a kid who's 10x more humble than his loud mouth fans are. I get that Aussies have never experienced this kind of thing since Reedy only really won while others were injured (Reed was my childhood hero btw so no disrespect) but the aggression Aussies have shown over the past year because of Jetts success has been unbearable. Most Americans who have social media would likely say the same thing if they're being honest...
When you think of circumstances , if that big crash doesn't Happen The thumb doesn't happen By maybe favoring different parts of his body. He would have broke records that no one could catch. He made motocross a art Form
I had same injury many years ago (on the throttle side) all I could manage after that was short night races, though Jett’s not lucky because of this if it were the other hand it could be career ending. Good luck Jett.
You could see the compression on Hunters front needed to come out a click in the first moto.
If y’all are wondering who Jett’s gf is it Dylan Conrique. Shes a singer
Does anyone else think it makes more sense to put jett on the 250 ? 250 guy makes or breaks the mxon team. Or hunter even
This injury is not a bad thing. Now he knows what is like to lose and sit out a championship so early into his career. It was already going to be a rough road for other riders in the years to come, it’s going to be even worse for them now.
Enjoy your pizza jet, you’re the man!
Very talented rider looks like he’s learned something about his behavior after those Red Bull videos of his personal life that made him look just terrible. Live and learn kiddo
can you point us to said video's so we can see what your talking about?
Bro looks and sounds like he's high off them percs
Chase ain’t got a hope with a healthy jett
Flame away yanks
First lol
Hunter is going to have to tell Doctor G to up his micro dose before the next gate drop.
Hymas seems to be taking to the injections well...
Idiocy at its finest 👌
Is he stoned.
No, but your comment is...
Let's hope Jett's thumb is healed enough to allow him to get a plane ticket to Matterly Basin to get sprayed by Herlings
100% fit Jett beats Herlings i think.
@@toddjohansson5837 Now, i agree. Prime Herlings, no. He's an old man now, with a list of injuries a mile long.
@@OtisFlint Mate he is old but he is now getting back on form today he won the GP in Europe,dont count him out you should know this when he went to the Ironman in 2017 smoked Tomac and all you yanks.we will see at Matterley Basin.and if it was Lommel it would be a walk in the park for him.write him off at your peril.
Let's be real... Herlings been a MX1 failure....
@@OtisFlint no one has beat a fit Jett
Who is his girlfriend?
I know his ex Cecile Prado is a smoke show.
Her name is Dylan Conrique, she’s a singer
