Chase Sexton has ended the rumours that he might stay with Kawasaki by confirming he is leaving the team!
Sexton said “Just want to say, thank you Kawasaki. Very appreciative for all the effort by every person involved and I wish the team and all the staff the best going forward. See you at the races.
It is Deja vu for Kawasaki who had Jorge Prado get out of his contract last year after not gelling with the bike and now the same has happened to Sexton!
With rumours Lucas Coenen will ride a 250 in Supercross, could Sexton copy Prado and end up back at KTM with Steve Matthes already saying they have had a meeting? Who knows what will happen, with Yamaha also potentially an option and maybe HEP Suzuki if Roczen retires…
Matthes says he wouldn’t be surprised if he goes to any of the three teams!
If you told me Sexton to HEP, to Yamaha or to Quad Lock Honda, I would not be surprised.
