Relive the thrilling season finale of Lucas Oil Pro Motocross through the lens of Tom Journet. Tom captured all the action from all four motos of racing up close to see the dramatic scenes as Jett Lawrence fought for and eventually took him the 2021 Lucas Oil Pro Motocross 250 Class Championship. We also see the hard fought battles from the 450 Class as Dylan Ferrandis and Eli Tomac split moto victories as they each looked to go out of the final round on top of the podium.

In July, Ryan Dungey announced the launch of the Ryan Dungey Foundation, with a mission of “Creating Opportunities for Children.” The multi-time AMA Supercross and Motocross champion has teamed up with St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, who he has created a strong relationship with over several years, and All Kids Bike (an initiative to get children on bicycles at a young age), in order to make a difference in the lives of young children. “We’re on a mission to teach every child in America how to ride a bike in kindergarten PE class,” states the All Kids Bike website. In line with his mission, Dungey is hosting the Opportunity Awaits Ride Day on Saturday, September 18, at Fox Raceway at Pala, in California, where children will have the opportunity to ride striders, Stacycs, and dirt bikes, as well as hangout with family and friends. “You would think that every kid would have a two-wheeled bike and they don’t,” Dungey said. “It should be a given, it should be a natural part of their childhood, so we’re excited to provide that to them.
He joined our Mitch Kendra via Zoom meetings in order to chat about his foundation, the ride day, and more.

Jason Weigandt catches up with Adam Wheeler of On Track Off Road and Lewis Phillips of MX Vice at Antonio Cairoli's retirement ceremony. In the midst of one of the best season's of MXGP racing of late, Cairoli's retirement at year's end adds an extra element to it all. Five riders are separated by just 34 points at the halfway mark and it doesn't seem like anyone has really grabbed the series by the horns yet. Weigandt, Wheeler, and Phillips discuss why that is and how the dynamics within Red Bull KTM specifically has changed now that they have three riders fighting for the championship at the highest level.

Welcome to Save of the Day presented by Mips where we will be highlighting close calls, salvage rides, or comeback performances from each week of the 2021 Lucas Oil AMA Pro Motocross Championship.

At the Hangtown Motocross Classic, the pressure was cranked up for the 250 Class championship fight as Jett Lawrence made several mistakes and watched his championship lead dissipate. Justin Cooper could only do so much by going 1-1 on the day and he was on his way to the first step of that in the first moto when he nearly tossed it all away. Cooper almost laid the Yamaha down coming to the white flag and narrowly missed collecting himself into some banners along the side of the track.

Somehow Jason Weigandt got invited to Rome, Italy to attend the retirement press conference for Tony Cairoli. The nine-time FIM World Motocross Champion (who could win title 10 this year) is calling it a career after the conclusion of this year’s MXGP season, but he says he’ll continue to race occasional races here and there, and that, yes, should include some stops at AMA Motocross Nationals next year!

Jason Weigandt walks and talks in the Hangtown pits, grabbing Hunter Lawrence for intel on the Lawrence family afterparty, and super agent Lucas Mirtl, who pitched the U.S. industry on the boys from Australia. Some people laughed at him. Weigandt also grabs Michael Lindsay to ask about the end of his FXR Chaparral Honda team, which housed Coty Schock and Carson Mumford. The Weege Show is presented by RaceTech.com and Race Tech’s engine and suspension seminars. Go too RaceTech.com for more.

Dutchman Rick Elzinga sits third in the EMX250 standings through four rounds behind Nicholas Lapucci and Kevin Horgmo. The 19-year-old appears to have a promising career in motocross ahead of him as he was looking to move up to MX2 in 2022. But earlier this year, GateDropMX spoke with Elzinga about his future and learned he was without a ride for the following year and was considering returning to school full time instead. That’s when “MXMattii” on the VitalMX.com forums started the discussion. In what turned out to be a 12-page thread with many twists and turns, member “Brent” or Brent Norman, reached out to Elzinga about the prospect of racing the final two rounds of Lucas Oil Pro Motocross in California. Within days, Norman had booked Elzinga flights to come stay with him in his Southern California home and went out to AEO Powersports in Murrieta, California to purchase a 2022 KTM 250 SX-F for Elzinga to race. With suspension, handlebars, his seat, and a dream, Elzinga made it to California to race Fox Raceway 2 and Hangtown in an effort to show what he’s capable of as he looks for a future in motocross. Unfortunately, he boiled fuel in 250 Moto 1 at Fox Raceway and had the gas cap pop off and splash him with fuel, some of which he swallowed. The illness that ensued coupled with the heat was enough to spoil what looked to be a good day for him. But this past weekend in Hangtown, he put 17-16 scores together for 16th overall on another sweltering hot day in California.

We caught up with him afterwards to hear all about his wild American adventure.
