But, we do have these tools now - there are races where we have more eyes on the broadcast / stream in the South of France (Marseille to Monaco, let's say) than we do from the PNW? So, to say what you said, speaks more towards the complacent, one-dimensional track of thinking by decision-making Individuals in this Industry.Ĥ. That line of logic made perfectly good sense in 90's (& earlier) when you didn't really have the tools to measure these metrics, but still even then that was taking the easy excuse route. he is on Advertising over there, he is on Monster advertising over there, he rides for Alpinestars of whom actually hosts a profound presence throughout Europe & this one country shaped like a boot with a fairly storied tradition within Motorsport. That's like saying Tomac winning in Supercross has no direct correlation to sales of Yamaha's in idk, let's say France? When. the logic of: USA-managed entities > USA market only - is again - one of the most blatantly inept arguments in here. "- Honestly, the teams in the US don’t really care about that event anymore except when it is in the US". (in NA, ANZ, EU, Africa - anywhere?) yeaaa, ok? Or at its core - the mere fact that ANY representation of rider X on brand Y at MXoN doesn't reinforce the appeal / visibility of the given brand? That is just false?ģ. no one else? So they aren't obligated to representing partnered brands in any capacity? Furthermore, you mean to tell me, that the allure of Tomac finishing off last season with a historic win at MXoN didn't directly aid in the sales of Yamahas. But no one is? Even more to the point, in saying that, you are stating that Factory's (I'm assuming that you are alluding to solely them, not Privately owned teams - given that Privately owned entities primary sources of funding / any source of funding do not come from a Manu.) ENTIRE budget's come from a Manu. Unless you are truly beholden to a singular company - & I quite genuinely mean a SINGLE company - fine. That is a baseless statement & just blatantly lazy way of navigating this. That ignorant line of one-dimensional thinking is precisely the reason why no one from outside this sport gives us 5 cents. That’s why the teams race - " ie "they only care about selling bikes". "That event doesn’t sell moto bikes in the US.


Anyone who says they "don't see value in this" is simply just lazy, or don't have the means to & use that as the excuse.Ģ. anything that is an extension of what the Championship season entails). Yea, yea - 99% of the races are just in the States (barring MXoN in this example), but that doesn't mean that the eyes on the race are solely that of Americans? Without carrying on with this novel - any competent Director of a Program / Team or these people that call themselves "Agent" (which is a whole other hill for me to d*e on haha), would earmark $X (or ensure that $X is allocated IN CASE) in-case for this situation (so that you aren't beholden to the the sporting federation, etc.) ESPECIALLY, if they host an individual of whom has a realistic chance to go race MXoN (or FIA Motorsport Games, etc. It adds an extra layer of integration within the market competed in & allows for a deeper root with the company on both sides of the pond. Especially when dealing with Anglo-XXXXXX companies. With that, when pitching to potential partners / sponsors, the allure of having an individual compete in an annual version of the Olympics for Motocross, in fact, does bring an added value. As a Team Owner, Principal, Sporting Director, Team Manager, "Agent" - whatever fun-filled title MX people feel the need to call themselves ( myself included in years past) - you should have at least a fundamental understanding of the value that each individual athlete, race, market competed in / catered to, etc. I am sorry, I don't mean to take this out on you - but I've been biting my tongue so hard it's bleeding, I'm just going to say these things & rant over - I would love to expand on any of these things privately, what have you, but anyways:ġ. I mean, every sport has problems, but still, this is ridiculous. This is a problem I have always had with a majority of the people that actually have a say in what goes on in this sport. We both know that that is less than the contingency marked for a race win. Men’s New Motorcycle Leather Pant.Why are we acting like that is some insurmountable amount of money to attain? $35k isn't really a lot of money? For a Private Individual, yea - ok, obviously.
