JETT OUT FOR SEASON
Defending 450MX Champion Jett
Lawrence did not race the Red-
Bud National and will forego the
rest of the season after suffering
a UCL tear and a break in his
thumb, the same injury as Cooper
Webb and Eli Tomac, while prac-
ticing earlier in the week. Law-
rence underwent surgery but still
attended RedBud to support his
Honda HRC team. "It's obviously
a bummer, but it's part of our
sport," Lawrence said. "It was a
pretty small crash, but it is what it
is. I've been pretty lucky with inju-
ries in my career so far, so I guess
it's just my turn. I was happy with
the progress we've made in the
championship since my setback at
Hangtown, and I was excited to try
and keep my championship. That
obviously won't happen now, but I
have a good team around me and
will focus on getting healthy again
and coming back at 100 percent.
I look forward to cheering on
Hunter and doing whatever I can
to help him the rest of the series."
